2014 Aussie Open QF: Vika vs. Aga

[Si Si Simona]

Looks like Aggie is the sentimental favorite but she got no votes.

What makes her the sentimental favorite if she got no votes? :huh:

its women tennis and everything makes sense here

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

What a lob, don't see it that perfect too often.

Djokovic should watch a replay of that last point over and over again. His overhead at Roland Garros last year is probably still giving him nightmares.

I think Becker has him doing lines on a chalkboard somewhere 'I will not serve and volley on match point'

Radwanska playing some very canny tennis early in this match. I expect Vika to tune in soon, but Aga's doing a super job of keeping her guessing.

Ha! Sorry, I didn't read back. Well, so much for not going with your heart…Radwanska is holding sway here, at least for now.

I had to post this funny picture of Aga.

This girl can do anything. she is like a sophisticated machine

 

[Front242]

I guess Azarenka may have been taking things a bit lightly with Serena and Sharapova out so early thinking this was the easiest route to the title she's ever had and maybe it's affecting her play. Often happens actually when the pressure is there with the media talking about you as the winner many rounds before the final since top seeds are out early. Hope today is Radwańska's day.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Aga up 3-0, she added to her lead. Now Vika is pushed to deuce, she is running all over the place.

 

[kskate2]

Aga up 2 breaks. Vika not on the board yet. Too many UE's.

 

[Front242]

Looked like a double fault to me but a break it is anyway.

makes me feel much better after the Simo lose. Bad things can happen to the best. Serena, Maria, Vika.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Vika is now screaming at herself and beating herself with the racket!
All that gets her a game!

Aga is inside that head!
Aga is also serving for the set, up 5-1

 

[kskate2]

Vika looks like she's going to cry on the changeover

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Now she has to maintain Aga. That will be the challenge because Vika usually regroups quickly for the second set. Aga has to keep Vika guessing as well as she has this first set.

 

[kskate2]

ESPN gets on my last nerves w/ all this talking when a live match is going on. Horrible carrier for a slam.

:clap

Agreed. All too often they have no sense of occasion.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Aga must hold here to give Vika a sense she isn't going away.

 

[Front242]

What a total gem of a lob and point.
