[kskate2]

Serena got lucky. she hit the ball right back to Svito.

 

[kskate2]

38 yr old w/ some defense

 

[Double Bagel]

I actually got to meet Pam volunteering many years at her Baltimore Tennis event for Cystic Fibrosis. She is actually a wonderful person.

 

[kskate2]

Serena breaks at 1-1

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Elina's 1st serve has gone AWOL in this match,she did not have a BP in her first serve against Keys.

 

[tossip]

Elina broken again

 

[Double Bagel]

Elina is in real trouble now.

 

[tossip]

Shut up Chrissy with the former game plan of Kerber,Oskaka and Halep over Serena.

I am not listening to that woman today..not today

 

[kskate2]

Elina's 1st serve has gone AWOL in this match,she did not have a BP in her first serve against Keys.

Some of that is the Serena intimidation factor. Keys doesn't return anywhere near as good as Serena.

Yep I realize that,until now Elina has not dropped a set before this match.

 

[Double Bagel]

38 years old and has the wheels.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Serena On Wheels....to the net lol!

 

[Double Bagel]

Wild hit by Elina. That is the beginning of the end for her.

 

[kskate2]

Plus Svito can get very negative in a hurry. She gets pouty when she's losing.

 

[tossip]

Wow Elina is falling apart..I didnt expect this kinda of a match.

 

[Double Bagel]

Wow Elina is falling apart..I didnt expect this kinda of a match.

I certainly didn't expect Elina to fall apart and maybe she will play out the rest of this set. I hope so.

 

[tented]

This is easier than I thought it would be. Excellent.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Serena has too many weapons for Elina,Elina is basically a defensive type of player,can move well,makes you hit one more ball into play,.waiting for you to make the error.2nd serve needs more improvement,remember she was a junior RG champion.
