Federer's shots are pacey, something Zverev's lack. But he's more than making up for it with some big strong serves here and Federer's committing a few errors...
And SHOT! Federer runs to the net and ends it with a forehand volley. And a shot that's in by an absolute milimetre gets him the point - and he finishes that off to take the second set!
That was a classic tennis rally and a half. Zverev is matching Federer on athleticism here and then some, and playing some vintage Federer-type shots in the process. Tennis fans win.
Couple of passing shots from both players and they're locked in a good rally. There's a forehand lob from Zverev that goes past Federer, but the Swiss is in no mood to let breaks march up on him. He breaks back.
Mischa Zverev holds his first service game in the second. He'll want to redeem himself now and this is a good time to do it. Federer rushes the net and Zverev can't respond fast enough. He sends it wildly into the air - but manages a service hold.
Roger Federer has two set points. Hits an ace. Advantage Federer. Zverev thwacks that one quickly to the net - and Federer spins backwards, hits that, and it's a backwards...backhanded winner?
A great backhand winner from Tsonga and he's still surviving here. But crucial errors are costing him here and Wawrinka's placement and that single-handed backhand are both in great form.
A drop volley from Stan Wawrinka followed up with an unforced error from Tsonga - and that was the Frenchman's last attempt to stay in this match, we think. Wawrinka is now firmly in control of this.
