Caroline Wozniacki and Leylah Fernandez were tied at 1-1, 3-3 when darkness forced their match to be stopped.
With rain forecast for tomorrow and only one match – this one! – to play to catch up with all the players who will play in the third round, the match ends on Court 1. The floodlights are on, the roof is closed and it’s a bit eerie in here.
Wozniacki saved two match points at 4-5, and just recovered from a deep, difficult return from Fernandez to go on the attack and take the lead… and she won the game with a classic double serve and crosscourt forehand.
5-5, last set. Don’t move (he said to himself).
