    "Let's go Taylor, let's go," shouts a lone voice inside this cavernous arena and the rest muster a couple of claps.

    Zverev holds serve, though, and still looks the more comfortable player.

    Fritz has gone into his shell. He needs to go after every ball as he did in the first set and a half. That's probably not natural for him but he's going to need to do it against a player like Zverev.

    It really feels like the tide is turning.
