Who wins?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I will stay with Martic,which will be a tough match in 3 sets

 

[don_fabio]

Martic as an underdog here, even though she is 4:0 against Vondrousova. Given the fact of no win for Marketa, that should make her even more motivated. I still believe in Martic to go through.

 

[tented]

Martic in 3.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Ditto.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Good timing just got home from work to watch this match live....tight match so far Martic 4-3 1st set
Martic with a great fhand down the line and breaks 5-3 and will serve for the 1st set

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Vondrousva breaks Martic serving for the 1st set with excellent defense will serve 4-5

Martic really putting pressure on her opponents serve

Great rally at the net from both players 5 games all

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Oops Martic had a too easy put away volley at the net and it went out by a mile

Martic with a great touch volley at the net,makes up for the one she should have made holds serve 6-5

Vondrousova has saved 3MP......lovely drop shot volley...5 points in a row from Vondrousova to hold serve well done

T/break in force for the 1st set....

Wow what a cross drop volley from Vondrousva

Yep. Doing a great job in this tiebreak. That lob to get to 5-1 was awesome.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Vondrousova 4-1 has played really well since saving 4MPs in her previous service game now 5-1

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Martic has had her chances to win this 1st set having 3SP

 

[tented]

Martic has had her chances to win this 1st set having 3SP

Yet gets only one point in the tiebreak. That’s gotta hurt.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Wonderfully played t/break from Vondrousova 76(1)

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Vondu stole this set from Petra.

I saw it and was sure she will take it, but no, now one set down. Will be veey hard to turn it around.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Martic better tidy up her UFE she made 20 in the first set .....11 winners

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Martic has to forget about the 1st set and start again

Vondrousova with 2BP

There is the break

Well a bit of a collapse from Martic. Which is not even remotely surprising. But Vondrousova playing really well to get back into it and get to the tiebreak. Still. Martic should have broken at 5-4 up love-40 on Vondrousova's serve. Vondrousova running away with the tiebreak probably just because Martic shocked with herself. But Vondrousova hasn't lost a tiebreak this year they showed up on the screen.

Vondrousova keeping it early here in the second.
