Another UFE from Serena and gives Osaka a BP in her opening service game
3rd break on the Serena serve from Osaka

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Serena needs to return Osaka's 2nd serve,something she has failed to do constantly in this match,gives her chance to get into game

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Consolidates with an Ace from Osaka leads 2-0

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

There was a chance on the Osaka 2nd serve,but she shut the door quickly,Serena has to move into the baseline on the 2nd serve of Osaka.
Osaka leads 3-1

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Osaka with an easy hold leads 4-2
Serena still not attacking the 2nd serve of Osaka,she also needs to cut down on the UFE

It hasn’t been a very good match. Riddled w/ errors and low serve % for both

Agree about the service percentage,Osaka had UFE in the 1st set,she cut down in the 2nd set.Serena made too many UFE all match
