At this Stage
Eighteen service breaks, eighteen double faults, and a final margin of two points — 121 to 119 — across nearly two and a half hours: Solana Sierra against Anna Bondár was a first-rounder decided by whoever could hold her nerve last. It was the Argentine, breaking in the final game to win 6-3 5-7 7-5 after converting 10 of 27 break points to Bondár's 8 of 22. Nobody held anything reliably; Sierra simply cracked less at the end. Surviving that sort of match can steel a player, and she needed it — seventh seed Coco Gauff came next, and the second round stretched all the way to a third-set tiebreak before the seed edged through.
