Vika looking like a player... finally. BREAK!! 2nd set Vika up 3-2 and serving. Finally getting some first serves in and tee-ing off on Serena's second serves. If Serena doesn't turn it around soon, she'll tank and then push in the 3rd. It looks like Serena doesn't want to waste any energy returning serves at the moment. ALL or NOTHING... and Vika holds at love.
September 11, 20205 yr Vika CRUSHES the backhand to break Serena and win the set. She is on fire and "locked in".
September 11, 20205 yr Both women are absolutely knocking the cover off the ball.Enviado desde mi SM-G973U mediante Tapatalk
September 11, 20205 yr Serena just pulled her fat. Of course she's not going to lose, it's going to be because she is hurt.
September 11, 20205 yr Her fitness always lets her down in one way or another. Been that way since returning to the tour after having her kid
September 11, 20205 yr I will really be pissed if Serena uses this rest time to throw Vika off her game while also getting a rest. Serena knows what she's doing. Do not like the Serena.
September 11, 20205 yr Serena looking to break back in one swing rather than winning 4 points. Serena screaming to intimidate on each swing yet she's not winning the point on each swing. She did win a point finally and just tied it up at 30:30.
September 11, 20205 yr Serena throwing in her usual antics, and so far Azarenka has had all the answers
September 11, 20205 yr At 30:30 Vika was running Serena back and forth like and older sibling messing with a younger sibling and then does a double to the same side, but even close to the line and Serena couldn't react. Too old and fat to spring back. Serena will be a threat until match point, but Vika is in a good position. Too bad that this isn't like the World Cup and the semifinal losers play each other before the women's final.
September 11, 20205 yr Author Whew, came back at Vika 2-0, 30-0 this set, wasn’t about to post. That a girl! Same final we should have had a couple weeks ago.
September 11, 20205 yr Consecutive Aces to win the match!!! Serena challenged the match point, but it was in by 1 to 2 millimeters! LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 11, 20205 yr tfw you try to "win for all the other moms out there" and you get beat by another mom. lol
September 11, 20205 yr i want to see brady/serena. absolutely thrilled the way vika was able to respond after the first set. she figured out how to handle serena's return and then started blasting shots. considering her history with venus this took off the charts mental toughness. serena threw everything she had at her. so impressive. i hope she doesn't have a let down match.

Again, that's why there should be a 3rd Place Match!

September 11, 20205 yr Author Vera Zvonareva won doubles with Siegemund, 14 years after winning it the first time. Another mother on tour, 5 total Slam doubles titles now counting mixed. Also, seems weird PCB/Sascha starts in an hour.
September 11, 20205 yr As far as the men's draw goes when was the last time neither Federer, Novak or Nadal, were in a semifinal? Since Federer won his first title, Wimbledon in 2003, only 11 out of 67 titles have been won by someone other than those three.

Wed / Thurs / Saturday is not "3 days in a row". If they want 3rd place money instead of 4th place money, they would do it. If they want to be on the podium, their sponsors would sure as fuck make them do it. It would be the warm up to the women's final. Same with the men. 6 minutes ago, satyanash said: Wow. Zverev just hit a 136 mph second serve. He wants this. I wonder if this is the BIRTH OF ZVEREV as a major contender for the next decade.

September 12, 20205 yr This umpire has it in for Medvedev. Refuses to overrule a clear out, then overrules a ball by Medvedev that was clearly in. Edited September 12, 20205 yr by satyanash
September 12, 20205 yr Thiem's backhand is FILTHY right now. He's standing back at the fence and booming Medvedev's serves back at him a la Nadal.
September 12, 20205 yr 22 minutes ago, TonyTexas said: Med is an asshole. He deserves everything he gets Asshole or not, what matters is what is IN and what is OUT. Human error calling points should not even be permitted at this point. That should have been eliminated 20 to 40 years ago.
September 12, 20205 yr 1 minute ago, satyanash said: Them crushes a DTL forehand to win the set 2 tiebreak! Thiem should be the 2nd favorite for the French Open this year. His game is so Rafa, but younger.
September 12, 20205 yr Wed / Thurs / Saturday is not "3 days in a row".True. I didn't consider they could play the match right before the championship.
September 12, 20205 yr KIM CRAWFORD Sauvignon Blanc (Marlboro Bay, New Zealand) For women who no longer can smell cat urine.
September 12, 20205 yr Thiem is like the opposite of Federer in terms of elegant, smooth play. Like, he's totally not.
September 12, 20205 yr That was a really long rally for Thiem to break back. It doesn’t look god for Medvedev.
September 12, 20205 yr 8 minutes ago, Napoleon said: That was a really long rally for Thiem to break back. It doesn’t look god for Medvedev. It's nearly impossible to win long rallies against Thiem, especially on a slow, high-bouncing surface like this. He'll just hit you out of the rally.
