This could go longer than Emma-Saville! 😳

Tauson beat Tan 6 3 6 1 earlier!

Sorribes Tormo breaks to go 4-3 up in the second set - which has now lasted 68 minutes! 😮

Only 15 mins until they beat the Osario V Emma time of 2hrs 50mins. Osario still has a doubles match to play today, her partner is Tauson.

I'm confused. There are tournaments in which Emma doesn't play? Now you tell me! Jeez!

Osorio wins the second set 6-4 in 83 minutes! 😍

The match has lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes so far and they're about to play the deciding set! 💀

This slog fest… It was almost inevitable, wasn’t it?

The first 2 sets of Emma v Saville in Guadalajara took 2 hours and 40 mins. So even longer than that.

FWIW I think the quality of this match has been OK, actually. Few real errors on either side. Quite watchable. A proper dual.

MCOS breaks back.

It's good to have players with different styles. I mean when you watch SST you pretty much know what to expect.

MCOS get the salt shaker out during changeover.

Zhang vs Siniakova 6 2 6 1 in one hour.

Why has Garcia not yet withdrawn from this tournament, she's surely not going to play it after last weeks efforts is she?

Meanwhile over in Granby, Kasatkina has just lost the first set to Minnen.

SST V Osario now officially longer than Emma v Saville. 3hrs 40 mins, 3-3 in the third.

This match is legendary! 😍 I am a bit worried though that they may have to put the loser on suicide watch. 😨
