US Open winEmail katy.murrells@theguardian.com | Tweet @KatyMurrells 9.23pm BST Venus showed some incredible fight there, but no consistent level. Impressed by Svitolina, who took more risks the closer she got to the end and deflects pace so well. Those long rallies in the second set were played at such a high pace. 9.22pm BST
And what of Federer’s thoughts after that win over Dzumhur?
I just tried to make less errors and be better on the offensive. I was able to protect my serve after a sloppy first set.
There were some big moments, I came through, buckled down and told myself I was not going to get broken, stayed tough and hung with him and that helps with my confidence for the next match.
