That was just tragic. Ana offered it to Lucie and Lucie said "no thank you".

Did you learn anything the first time you served for it, Lucie?

Yes. Take a little off and get more 1st serves in.

To be fair Ana starts hitting out when she's under the kosh. I'm not watching that closely but haven't detected choking on Safarova's part

Alright. I'm off. I'll check the scoreboard from my phone to see if she can serve it out for a 2nd time. If not, Lucie has to stay focused. She could still get out of this in 2 sets if she gets it to the TB. She has been $$ in the TB this tournament. Hasn't lost one yet.

1st serves are you friend, Lucie. Remember that.

And that is exactly what she is doing.

Well she did it, but I don't think she can take Serena out with this play, so she better hope Serena falters.

Good job Lucie! :clap
It's nice to see folks peaking and capitalizing on opportunities they might not have in the future.

I think Berdych should have stuck with her...to me she's preferable to his fiance Model X ;)

Tomas' loss, for sure. But I've seen her with a new boyfriend in the stands at IW and the USO, and she looks incredibly happy. Maybe Tomas dumping her (which is what I understood to happen) turned out to be best for her in the long run.
