Radwanska makes another semifinal.
Wow that experiment with Martina had to be one of the bigger tennis coaching fails I've seen. Aga's back up at the top again after dropping the dead weight.

I concur. It was never a good match in my opinion. I remember shaking my head when their union was announced. I am happy that Aga did not let that experience keep her down or destroy her confidence in her game.

So, as expected Aga got crushed. Congrats to Serena for making it to finals without losing a set. :clap

If you cannot return the serve and if your serve comes back as a winner, you don't have room to display your tennis IQ. That is why, I was saying no matter how high is your IQ, you need to have minimum power in order to compete at the highest level. You don't have to be a bionic woman, but you need reasonable power just to be in the same table (or should I say court).

If Konta makes it to the finals (which I think she will), the finals will get extremely low TV ratings.:devil

In ground strokes, Kerbie will be able to match Serena. But, there is huge difference in their serves, return of serves and net play. Also, Kerbie will not be timid or let the occasion get to her. So, we will have an actual match that will be won by Serena (in which she has to work).
