But that's a step up considering she finished last year 219.
But she's playing like a player who, oh, I don't know, Sophie, has been, what, inside the top 25?
I'll tell you what, the way she's playing right now, she is revved up on espresso.
Because she is in express mode.
Beautiful.
First break opportunity for the American.
She'll not be broken five times in this event.
Now saved nine of 14 break points in total, and that got a big boost in the crowd engaged.
Goodness, this is a power struggle.
This is going so fast, my head is like, I can't even follow that ball.
Well, that'll feel also good.
Once again, resolve for Amanda Anisimova.
It took 39 minutes to do it.
Tremendous combination of both the backhand and forehand from Anisimova.
Was that mighty.
And there you go.
Finally, the conclusion of a good old-fashioned hour-long tug-of-war.
That literally had a bit of everything from A to Z.
But in the end, it's AA who has the delight as she takes the opening set in a tie break, 7-6.
Yeah, and just thinking, Sophie, about the emotional weight of the conclusion of that.
And she's off to a flying start as she breaks to begin set number two.
Well, this is Anisimova flexing at her very best.
Everything has belonged to this young lady.
AA ready to move into the sweet 16.
And seals it with the ultimate kiss.
Her seventh ace.
And a straight sets win as she hands Jung Shuai of China a 7-6.
Six-love loss.
The second set was a blip after the tug-of-war that was the opening frame.
Good sportsmanship from both as they offer each other one solace for a tough loss.
The other, Amanda Anisimova, dynamic in the second set.
And on to the round of 16 she goes.
