Commentators here said that she stands in too close on the Serena serve, and doesn't change it. If it ain't working, you have to make a change.The concerning thing is @MashaFan is that Maria never seems to try and take Serena out of her rhythm.
Does anyone still call this a rivalry? I'm constantly amazed how Maria is given credit for being mentally strong and a warrior but she folds against Serena. But Roger gets flack for his h2h against Rafa. Puzzling!
I also love Christopher Cleary's writing. You are a woman of good taste. As a small note: I saw that Martina is playing Legends Doubles with Lindsay Davenport today. (Against a rather less-than-legendary pair that I never heard of.) Martina turns 60 later this year, I noticed. Like her or don't, but she's remarkable for keeping herself in shape and still playing. ¡Vamos, Martina and Lindsay!I love the quote from Chris Cleary one of my fav tennis writers,he said 'this has to be one of the most 'unrivalry's in tennis' Serena v Maria' I concur.Serena wasn't playing near her A game for starters,she had a slow start,could not get her serve going at times in that first set,then we all saw what happened in the 2nd set.
