Bronze.
Amazing pace from the 15yo American! Fair play.
Disappointing for Beckie. Although she has a great attitude.

Yeah shame for Beckie, she seems quite likeable, more so than certain athletes.

Yes! Amazing form the Muzza!
Fed. won his match 19-17 in the 3rd!
The longest 3 setter (in 3rd set games terms) in history.
...A 'Wimbledon final replay'.
