Can't speak to the stream, but it does seem to me that score updates - compared to the reaction in the markets - has been a bit slower in these US tournies compared to the recent European ones.

An interesting one in the Men's for a change. Herbert absolutely losing his mind with his own play. It's gonna likely be a complete meltdown from here, and a nice swing, turnaround if he gets his mindset right.
How quickly momentum can shift in tennis,
From winning just 4pts in 4 games Sabalenka turns it around by saving 2 set points then going on to level it at 5-5

Stopped earlier in the US Open qual between Ymer and Berlocq. Flashscore was struggling as well, and liquidity disasppeared. Flashscore came back with a score before things returned to normal before BF, and Berlocq was available at 1.02 with Flashscore saying the match was done. Couldn't find a feed to tell me if it was in fact over. Strange one.
Wow is there no end to this unbelievable match!!
3rd and final set Sabalenka 4-1 & 40-0 up and about to break Gavrilova again and trading at 1.02

Sabalenka certainly is a great spot as a trader. We should enjoy it while it lasts though imho. I get the sense, she's on the verge of controlling her emotions and shots sooner rather than later. Every time I watch her, I'm left with a feeling that there's a little bit less negative frustration replaced by a bit more positive determination. Her answer for what she learned about herself today being "That I'm even a bit crazier than I thought before today" along with a big grin, shows a good level self-awareness. Combine that with more varied play, which I also see coming more and more, instead of going for a winner every shot, and she'll run over many opponents, even top ones.
