Kartal hasn't let her head drop after the first set.
Pavlyuchenkova looks so good on that front foot. She is getting that lean on the ball. A huge roar from her but this match remains tight. They have been matching each other closely.
*Kartal 6-7 (3-7) 2-2 Pavlyuchenkova
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova lets out a big roar when Sonay Kartal puts into the net to hand over the hold.
Kartal 6-7 (3-7) 2-1 Pavlyuchenkova*
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova was all or nothing in the opening set.
The Russian hit 26 winners, compared to Sonay Kartal's eight, but also had 36 unforced errors, while the Briton had 18.
Can Pavlyuchenkova was also broken three times but found an extra gear for the tie-break.
She is seeking her first hold of the second set at 40-30 but Sonay Kartal gets to deuce.

Australia's Cruz Hewitt was victorious on his first appearance at Wimbledon - 23 years after his father, Lleyton, claimed the men's singles title.
Wearing the type of back-to-front cap that was his dad's trademark, the 16-year-old beat Russian Savva Rybkin 6-1 6-2 in the first round of the boys' competition.
Lleyton, who beat David Nalbandian in the 2002 Wimbledon final, was courtside for his son's victory.
Former world number one Lleyton also won the 2001 US Open and reached the final of the 2005 Australian Open.
Cruz, who is playing alongside Britain's Mark Ceban in the boys' doubles at SW19, will face Finnish 11th seed Oskari Paldanius next.
Anybody else suddenly feeling very old?
*Jarry 3-6 0-0 Norrie
Cameron Norrie made only three unforced errors in the first set. THREE.
I made more unforced errors than that and I'm just typing about it.
*Jarry 3-6 0-0 Norrie
Image source, Getty ImagesTremendous stuff from Cameron Norrie, who takes the opening set in exactly 30 minutes with a superb ace out wide.
Norrie saved a break point in the first game but held firm. And when his chance came on Nicolas Jarry's serve at 4-3 up, he took it.
Kartal 6-7 (3-7) 2-1 Pavlyuchenkova*
Or maybe not?
Sonay Kartal takes just 60 seconds to get a hold to love.
We've not seen many games like that.
Jarry 3-5 Norrie*

*Kartal 6-7 (3-7) 1-1 Pavlyuchenkova
A perfect response from Sonay Kartal.
The Briton gets the break back to 15.
We're back on serve and it feels like we should be prepared for another intense battle for this second set.

Three break points for the Briton.

Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova has come out hot off the blocks in this second set.
That was an important game for Sonay Kartal, but Pavlyuchenkova seemingly wants to move through the gears here.
I don't think she played poorly in the first set, but I do think she can play better and the tie-break would've helped to build her confidence.

Now then - here's a chance for Cameron Norrie as he outlasts Nicolas Jarry in a long rally for 0-30...
Kartal 6-7 (3-7) 0-1 Pavlyuchenkova*
The opening set ran for one hour and 18 minutes.
As Jess pointed out before the start of play, it's hot and stuffy on Centre Court with the roof closed.
Frodin 6-2 4-6 5-7 Xu
Image source, Getty ImagesNot an an easy match for Britain's Mimi Xu to get her girl's singles tournament under way.
She had to come from a set down against American Thea Frodin in her first round tie but, after nearly two-and-a-half hours, she takes the third set 7-5 to progress to the next stage.
It has been a big week for the 17-year-old at SW19 having made her debut in the women's draw when she lost to fellow Brit Emma Raducanu in the opening round.

The first set was long, swinging one way and then the other.
Pavlyuchenkova is fully in control at the moment. She is looking really confident. She has said previously that she is proud of her mental strength going into her first three matches.
Kartal 6-7 (3-7) 0-1 Pavlyuchenkova*
Sonay Kartal is sent chasing a lob back to the baseline and can't get the direction on her return.
An early blow for the Briton.

Anne Keothavong
Former British number one on BBC TV
Some big serving at times from the Brit in that first set as well as a lot of high quality tennis. More errors coming from the racquet of Pavlyuchenkova.
Pavlyuchenkova getting that first set under her belt is justice.
Jarry 3-3 Norrie*
Greg Rusedski
Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Sounds
Nicolas Jarry got off to a brilliant start here, getting that break point early on and really throwing the kitchen sink at Cameron Norrie.
However, Norrie is doing what he does best in defending exceptionally well. He is keeping his mind together and playing some great tennis.
Expect a long one here, but I think we are going to get a British winner.
