[MargaretMcAleer]

Oh no! What happened? I can't hear. My stream is not English so I muted it. I won't have this problem for the next slam as I'll be watching it from TV.

Pavs has a inner thigh injury,trainer on court,she has had her inner left thigh bandaged

 

[kskate2]

That's a really thick bandage. Mummy-like

She seems to have pulled a muscle, so they called for the trainer. Her thigh is now wrapped.

Yep,though she won the 2nd set,fingers crossed it does not hamper her for the 3rd

 

[kskate2]

Pavs takes the middle frame. Onto the decider, where we find out just what these ladies are made of...

And Pavs did a good thing. By breaking, she ensures she will serve first in the decider.

She has to swing for the fences, be aggressive and try to end the points quickly. Put pressure on Babs early w/ some quick return strikes

Agree.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

If I was Pavs I would be trying not to stand,with an injury,like she has,good to keep it warm,she needs to move
Babs is taking a long time going for a toilet break

She's stalling. Changing kits and trying to break up Pavs momentum

Getting ugly out there eh? I root for Pavs.

She held to open the third, so hopefully she’s not injured too much.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Babs not a happy camper after the opening game she yelled at her coach with her arms up in the air
Maybe letting off steam.....

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

God a DF from Pavs and Babs breaks

Bhand has been a saving point for Pavs in this match
A timely Ace for Pavs

[kskate2]

You can stick a folk in Pav's chances..her body is jaded with injuries..too bad and sad for her

Not so fast homes. She is 3 games away.
