Great fight by Milos, best match of the season so far.

Just watched around late 3rd Set and at least nice to see Raonic get a win against his closest rival IMO -- it is boring to have a lopsided rivalry, so even if I was rooting for Kei, this was a test whether Kei could keep up the pressure of still winning against Raonic.

Good quality overall. Kei may be shaky at some time but didn't let a break. Huge choke on that forehand 3-3 third set TB, shouldn't have missed by any means.

As much as I hate raonic, his ground strokes have definitely improved. Or maybe that's coz his movement has improved? His forehand is huge when he has time to set it up.

Have to admit Raonic's serve is a sheer phenomenon.

It started interesting and somehow got boring as soon as Nishikori started losing focus. Milos was a bit more consistent and it cost Kei the match.
That Double Fault at the 2nd set tiebreak to handle the minibreak proved to be the turning point of the match.

Whew, that was an intense match, some great play from Kei, mostly in the first set, Raonic served amazing, and a couple of mistakes from Kei in each tiebreak and that's all it took with Milos' ability to win his points on serve

Glad to see Milos beat Kei again, Kei got the better of him most of last year but I'll trade this one away if it means Milos can win the next time they ae each other in a slam. Winning that US Open match would have been huge for Milos
