every season fans always say she too old to be doing this or that but she always wins and since she turned 30ys she is more dominant than ever .I am amused that Azarenka said that she only cares about her and pova when she owns almost everybody...zenka is placing too much importance on herself just because she has Sascha.
I bet you Serena will not lose to Azarenka ...she has placed her on the pova list.
Maybe, maybe not. It doesn't really matter. She could hire Patrick if he ever became available. Ultimately, it's all up to her. She's the one who steps on court to play the matches, not Wim, Sascha or anyone else.

I'll go with Serena in three. She'll drop the first, but come back strong and take the last two sets. That seems to be the pattern this year. Errani doesn't count.

Kskate, you post says it all. No more to be said. BTW - your statement applies to all the players. The coach or the hitting partner can't do it for you you have to do it for yourself.

Reporters on twitter are saying that Serena is visibly sick, had coughing spells during her practice, no energy etc. I hope she can muster up enough to win here.

Serena is 23-3 in Slam semi-finals. That's an amazing statistic.

I hope she can too! I hope the reports on Twitter are fake. She looked great at the ITF dinner yesterday.

There have been mention's of Timea's relationship with her father - here's a great story from the NY Times last year discussing it:

Bacinsky is hungry and not afraid. Serena's serve is home sick.

Serena really looks listless on court right now. Hope she fights that off quickly.
