  1. *Muguruza 3-2 Kenin

    Fantastic rally.

    What a point. 23 shots, with both players seemingly having momentum, before Muguruza sprints forward to palm away a winning volley.

    40-30.

  2. *Muguruza 3-2 Kenin

    Sofia Kenin has other ideas, mind. The American wraps her strings around a shorter ball and punches it down the line and beyond the Spaniard. Muguruza fails to put away a volley at the net on the next point and Kenin picks her off with a passing backhand. All of a sudden it's 30-30.

  3. *Muguruza 3-2 Kenin

    Garbine Muguruza is looking unbreakable on serve. The Spaniard is hitting well, finding her lines. And she has that break advantage... 30-0.

    Kenin looked more animated there. She turned to her box and screamed something.

  5. *Muguruza 3-2 Kenin

    Sofia Kenin is digging deep, she's having to. The American looks exhausted after edging to 40-30 but then comes up with a thunderous winner to hold.

  6. Muguruza 3-1 Kenin*

    Angles! Kenin skids in a drop shot, but Muguruza gallops forward to pick it up with an acute little forehand that evades the American.

  7. 'Kenin doesn't seem to have a gameplan'

    Marion Bartoli
    Former Wimbledon champion on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Kenin has lost her way after a good start. She has to keep moving her legs or she will freeze on this court.

    The American doesn't seem to have have a gameplan.

  8. Muguruza 3-1 Kenin*

    Another long, punchy exchange... but it's Garbine Muguruza who comes out on top and that's enough to see the two-time Grand Slam champion hold.

  9. *Muguruza 2-1 Kenin

    Zinger from the American slinger, gliding a backhand on to the baseline and leaving Muguruza no chance. Deuce.

    “Vamos España!”

    This lot sat next to the media seats are understandably happy at Garbine Muguruza finally snatching that early break.

  11. *Muguruza 2-1 Kenin

    And another double fault. Live text commentator's curse, is that a thing?!

  12. *Muguruza 2-1 Kenin

    Of course, as soon as I say that the Spaniard double faults...

  13. *Muguruza 2-1 Kenin

    Garbine Muguruza looking in control on serve. Sofia Kenin just a little edgy after that positive start, having been broken in the previous game. 30-0.

  15. Muguruza 1-1 Kenin*

    Saved again! Long and important game, this one... who'll take it?

    Garbine Muguruza leaps into a slower second serve and dices it back beyond Sofia Kenin with interest. Break point, again...

  16. 'Kenin needs to serve precisely'

    Marion Bartoli
    Former Wimbledon champion on BBC Radio 5 Live

    If Kenin wants to hold her serve then she has to serve precisely because her speed is not high enough.

  17. Muguruza 1-1 Kenin*

    Kenin can't quite close this one out. Muguruza gets into the exchange and strides forward again, forcing the American long. Deuce.

    The 21-year-old comes in this time, but miscues a volley and it rattles the net.

    Break point number two for the Spaniard.

  18. Muguruza 1-1 Kenin*

    What a fantastic winner!

    Right on the line from Sofia Kenin... is it? Muguruza challenges, but that's just kissed the very edge of the baseline!

    She saves the break. And edges to advantage.

  19. Muguruza 1-1 Kenin*

    And now the Spaniard is cooking... Kenin leaves a short ball there to be struck, and Muguruza gobbles it up with a sweeping winner. Break point.

  20. Muguruza 1-1 Kenin*

    Fantastic power and placement from Garbine Muguruza as she rattles a forehand into the corner and then paces towards the tape to hammer down a winning volley.

    Deuce.
