If you are outside the sidelines just go back across court and make your opponent play the ball.
Potapova 6-3 2-6 3-4 Gauff*
A fabulous backhand from Gauff, as Potapova replies with a forehand which goes out.
Gauff undoes her hard work, though, and it's back to 15-15.
*Potapova 6-3 2-6 3-4 Gauff
She's broken right back after a third double-fault in the same game from Coco. THREE.
What a turnaround!
Nervy?

Make that back-to-back double-faults.

We haven't seen one in a while, and that right there was Coco's first double-fault of the set.

Potapova has to hang on in there and keep asking questions of her 15-year-old opponent.
Potapova 6-3 2-6 2-4 Gauff*
Potapova battles through her injury and manages to claw it back to 4-2.
This is far from over!

That was slow. Really slow! She is legitimately having some shoulder issues. And at 4-1 down the pain is worse.
*Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-4 Gauff
So, let's see how this injury pans out. Potapova is right-handed after all, and it's her right shoulder that's causes her some issues.
She's currently 30-0 down.
*Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-4 Gauff
Potapova's medical time out is over. She's back on her feet and ready to go.
Let's do this.
*Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-4 Gauff
Potapova doesn't look like a happy bunny right now.
Gauff, meanwhile, is on the sideliness jumping up and down, raring to crack on.
Mind games?

Coco is jumping around, doing the right thing by filling the time - doing up her shoe laces and things like that.
*Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-4 Gauff
Medical time out now for Potapova as we head into the closing stages.
She seems to be struggling with her right arm and shoulder.
*Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-4 Gauff
Four games in a row for Gauff!
She's won eight of the last nine and she's now 4-1 up in the third set.
Potapova has completely crumbled - she's now also called her trainer out.
Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-3 Gauff*
One hour and 34 minutes on the clock.
Gauff is 40-15 up and the match is within her sights.
Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-3 Gauff*
Coco Gauff extends her lead to 3-1 with a hard-hitting forehand which silences Potapova.
The Russian can't reach it and Gauff screams as she breaks the 18-year-old.
*Potapova 6-3 2-6 1-2 Gauff
What a fantastic rally!
Coco Gauff is on top form. She's cool, calm and collected.
Backhand, forehand, backhand, forehand, net.
Break point Gauff.
