Too bad for Pavs.

But very happy for Babs. She did well to turn it around. She was getting rolled in the 2nd set and then took that timely bathroom break. Welcome to the slam champions club.

I hope Martina Navratilova takes her white cowboy hat off when presenting the trophy's lol!

Just an reminder Babs is also in the womens doubles final tomorrow.,she could do a double sweep this year at RG.
