[GameSetAndMath]

I think the following matches will be interesting, but not result in upsets.

1. Belinda vs. Serena
2. Pironkova vs. Aga
3. Ana Konjuh vs. Kristina Malendovic

I am calling for three upsets in the other thread.

 

[kskate2]

Serena takes the opener 6-4. I do like her outfit this year

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Serena's newly minted BF was watching from the box, right?

 

[kskate2]

Of course. And Evert and company couldn't stop gushing about what a good guy he is.

 

[Hoergren]

Enjoy the Radwanska tweener

The court is playing faster than usual. This should help Serena.
