    You have to maintain the level in a tie-break, but Shintaro Mochizuki obviously came off it there.

    He gave away a few cheap points and made a few poor decisions. I bet his mind just started spinning as he got close to maybe sneaking that second set.

    Bencic 3-3 Gauff*

    Chants of "Let's go Coco, let's go" ring around Court One as the players take on some fluids at the change of ends.

    Belinda Bencic is the one that's flowing at the moment, though, and the Swiss opens up a 30-0 lead.

    Bencic cracks a lovely forehand winner into the corner after forcing Coco Gauff wide and then goes on to hold to love.

    Firing on all cylinders now.

    If you've never played someone but you've watched them your whole life and you're excited to be out there, you will always play above the level that you would play at on a daily basis.

    Then throw in the fact that you are the last game on your debut on Centre Court, with so many people watching, and you lift your game even more.

    That's what was happening for Shintaro Mochizuki before this tie-break.

    That was a nice moment as the crowd cheered loudly for Shintaro Mochizuki before he served for his last game, and louder still when he hammered down an ace to take it.

    Ten games into set two and the qualifier continues to go toe-to-toe with the defending champion. Every so often it appears Jannik Sinner is just getting a little bit impatient in rallies as he looks to get the scoreboard really moving here.

    Bencic 1-3 Gauff*

    *Bencic 0-3 Gauff

    Belinda Bencic saves the first.

    The Swiss staves off the second when Coco Gauff whips into the net.

    It looks like Bencic is starting to target Gauff's forehand now and it pays off when she gets to advantage. But Gauff takes a step behind the baseline and unleashes a wicked forehand winner for deuce.

    I know I gave the volleying tick to Shintaro Mochizuki being the better net player, but this is where Jannik Sinner has also improved dramatically under the guise of Australia's Darren Cahill.

    He has definitely improved his transition and volleying. That point to go 40-30 was impressive.

    *Bencic 0-3 Gauff

    Following a fifth double fault in this game, Coco Gauff pops up with an ace for advantage.

    Gauff finally gets the hold when Belinda Bencic sends long.

    It's Jannik Sinner to restart play and the defending champion gets the better of two long rallies.

    Shintaro Mochizuki fights back with a volley at the net, before Sinner drags a forehand wide.

    Some expert play at the net while under pressure from Sinner sees him get to game point and he wraps it up with a forehand winner after a big first serve.

  19. Fourth deucepublished at 20:55 BST

    And then it's a 122mph serve to get back to deuce.
