    Davis 4-6 6-7 (5-7) 5-5 * Drake I do like that Davis is now coming to the net a bit more often, but it costs him badly as he approaches off a second serve and is passed easily by Drake for 0-30. He draws back to 30-30, but watches as a forehand spirals long to give Drake a championship point...

    Davis 4-6 6-7 (5-6) 4-4 * Drake Are the winds of change upon us? For the second time this set, Davis comes out of the change of ends with a much-needed easy service game. Drake starts off by challenging what looked to be a clear winner and was called out - he is ruled correct. Davis again is...

    * Davis 4-6 6-7 (5-7) 2-3 Drake You feel Davis has to make his move soon or this match is going to slip through his fingers. All Drake this game as he won the points himself and handed Davis one with an unforced error. There isn't much time left for Heath if he continues to park himself so far...

    THIRD SET * Davis 4-6 6-7 (5-7) 0-1 Drake We're back underway in the third set, and Drake begins strongly with a whippy forehand down the line for 30-0. He makes a bad error on his backhand side, but benefits from Davis' inability to return a second serve. 40-15 becomes deuce as Davis shows...

    Davis 4-6 5-6 * Drake What a turnaround this has been! Could this be the new world number three? Drake gets a slice of luck - and a chunk of the net - as a return that looks to be crashing into the net stops dead and drops to bring up double break point. Drake apologies, but he clearly doesn't...

    Apparently Fish/Tsonga wasn't the night match because it was in the timeslot CBS get access to.

    * Davis 4-6 5-3 Drake Despite failing to convert his chances in that last game, Drake is really starting to put the pressure on the 23rd seed. After taking a 30-0 lead after some long rallies, Davis basically tanks the next two points and concedes to love. He looks happy to serve this one out...

    Davis 4-6 4-1 * Drake Davis starts off well with an ace down the T, but he stuffs up a pretty routine forehand and watches as Drake moves to 15-30 with a lovely approach shot and volley. Davis draws level at 30-all, but Drake brings up his first break point of the set with a clean winner off a...

    SECOND SET Davis 4-6 1-0 * Drake After the disappointment of that set, Davis starts slowly to be 0-30 after dumping a volley into the net. He gets a lucky net cord next point, though, and advances to 40-30. A couple of deuces are played as he fails to close out the set, but he manages on his...

    Davis 4-5 * Drake Two crashing serves get Davis off to a decent start, but Drake is really starting to wind up on that forehand side. A couple of very ordinary second serves gives Drake a look at 30-all and a real chance to nick a break. Can he do it? Maybe, because Davis dumps a backhand into...

    Davis 3-2 * Drake More looks on serve here for Drake as Davis lets a 30-0 lead slip as Drake puts together three points thanks to some deep hitting and bad errors from the underdog. Break point for Drake. Again Davis shows some calmness under pressure to save this one with a big first serve, but...

    FIRST SET Davis 1-0 * Drake The chair umpire has to ask the crowd to be quiet twice before we can get underway. Pretty lively start. Any pressure on Davis doesn't seem to get to him as he slams down an ace with his first serve. A few wobbles from 40-0 as he sends a backhand long and then...

    I can't guarantee when I can do it or how long it takes - what's the time difference between here and NZ? Pretty sure it is 8 hours between here and dcye, but not sure.

    With a win in Sunday's final, Drake will be the new World No. 3. With a loss, he will be the new World No. 4. Either way, he is the top ranked CWLander after this week. Should Davis pull off the upset, he will be the new World No. 8. With a loss, he rises to World No. 11.
