WATCH: Baghdatis, Donaldson rage war in marathon point

Published Mar 22, 2018

Jared Donaldson and Marcos Baghdatis went through a mini war in their first round match at the Miami Open. After losing the first set, the 32-year-old from Cyprus wasn't going to lose a marathon of a point. The rally had everything; sprints, angles, loops and more.

After 30 seconds, Baghdatis hit a backhand that finally ended the point and sent the crowd to their feet. Yet despite winning the rally, he couldn't win the match, losing to the American, 6-3, 6-4.

Donaldson credited his mental strength for the reason behind his win.
