What's a 'double fault'?
A double fault occurs when a player fails to get either of their two serves legally into play. It results in the loss of a point. In Norrie's match, De Minaur's two double faults at a crucial moment cost him his lead and ultimately the second set, highlighting how critical serving can be.
