- Djokovic slams ‘awful’ serve | And you can email Katy
Tomas Machac has broken back against Sebastian Korda. The Czech is now serving at 4-3 down. And the first set of the day has – unsurprisingly – gone to Anna Kalinskaya, 6-2 against Anna Bondar.
Hubie Hurkacz isn’t messing around either. The Pole, who injured his knee diving for a ball during his second-round loss at Wimbledon, has done something of a Djokovic by returning from surgery so quickly, and he’s 5-2 up here against Jordan Thompson, who’s being watched by the Australian Davis Cup captain Lleyton Hewitt. Hurkacz did face a break-back point in the previous game – but reeled off the next three points to hold.
