Monfils
Cilic
3-6 - Monfils looks to be cruising through another service game before Cilic produces a stunning forehand passing shot down the line to level at deuce. Monfils though comes up with a blistering forehand winner of his own two points later to save a first set point but the temperamental forehand deserts him once again on Cilic's second set point and Monfils slaps long - before throwing his racquet down in disgust - to hand the Croat the first set
3-5 - Cilic holds another service game to 30 with some more great serving. He may only be getting 63 per cent of his first serves in but when he does get that first serve in, 92 per cent of the points are going the way of the Croat
3-4 - Much better again from Monfils as he recovers to send a series of brutal forehands over the net and force Cilic into the errors. Monfils has had three very comfortable service games but also one shocker, and that's the one that's cost him right now
2-4 - Cilic has another very solid game on serve to consolidate the break to 15 when Monfils sends a forehand flashing past the baseline
1-0 - An impressive opening service game from Monfils as he cruises through a hold to 15 with some huge serving. much to the crowds delight
