He had the line perfectly right and again choosing the right direction the right shot made so far yet again a sonico sensational shot onto his forehand such a dramatic conclusion such a a painful finish for the young croatian and what a fight that was no he's done well to flick that back past he's got the width again stood his ground well blistering winners oh on the run you could see the line he was after he had no doubt where he was going to put that it was the right idea to go body i think with the serve but he still came back and it's another error off that forehand and what a and said what a breakthrough that is but at the third time of asking he makes certain very fine work from him he's got in again a strong backhand so strong to deal with the force of that serve and it takes some doing over six foot five but how confident is that i mean to hit down the side there with an angle to do that and then get up and put it away he's edged the line oh popper in how many times have we seen mensik tuck in against that second serve he stood right up to it popper in being forced right to the back wall and chasing shadows eventually that is some debut performance 3 6 2 that could mensik is 18 year old from czechia too good for the defending champion knocked him out and then some a bit of a struggle to get through that final game but pumping those legs trying to get up to the ball but it was too good what an awesome forehand you might be thinking after being broken that uh it's time to come off the court so you make a plea for that wow again he's lighting it up here despite the gloom overhead what length and again what force and the backhand's pretty handsome as well when hit like that no what do we reckon he went so fast did it flash past the line it did cracker jack crushing the ball oh my god again the clear mark inside that line as well in straight sets a breathtaking display of power
