2023 Wimbledon QF: Sabalenka vs. Keys

[PhiEaglesfan712]

Who will win this Wimbledon quarterfinal?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

The H2H between these 2 players is 1 all
Last time they met was in Berlin 2021 on Grass, Madison won,

 

[tented]

Sabalenka in 3, unfortunately.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Both these players have to watch their margins and are apt to make more UFE in their respective games
Sabalenka powered her way ove rAlexandrova and gave her a bagel in her previous match
Madison took on the Russian 16 year old quaififer who was playing 'fearless tennis' and really had nothing to lose, and won in 3 sets
I favor Sabalenka in this match up

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

BTW Aryna Sabalenka is 2 wins aways from World No 1 she dosent have to win the title she just has to get to the final

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Both ladies have done their warm up and about to play....Madison to serve
Great bhand pass from Saba with the early break she has come to play, so has her scream, which I am about to Mute
Saba backs up the break and leads 2-0, lot of offense in this match so far, not a lot of defense
The motto of this game so far is Go Big Or Go Home
Maddy with a poor volley attempt and gets broken
Saba with a double break, this set is going fast
Saba 5-1

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Showers now sad to say with Saba with a double break leading 5-1
There are patches of blue in the sky, players sitting down, Madison was to serve before the showers
Sun is out, Madison will serve, better service game from Maddy using her kicker serve and taking pace off her serve, unreturnable
Saba will serve for the 1st set 5-2
Maddy with a BP good returning from Maddy
SP for Saba what a return from Keys
2nd SP for Saba bhand winner with pace
Great fhand winner from Keys
Deuce for the 3rd time, better tactical changes from Maddy
3rd SP for Saba
1st set Saba 62

It’s the outcome I expected, but didn’t want. Congrats to Sabalenka.

Me too
Saba 62 64 she will play either Rybakina or Ons in the SF, though I have her as a danger to win the title she has been impressive to date

Darn Wi-Fi signal was way too weak to stream but I was able to listen when Keys took a 4-2 40-0 lead in the second set and crashed out because Saba blasted her off the court. Sounds like the best player won today ..

I watched the 1st set then had to SB cause I went to watch the other match Ons - Elina
Saba has been most impressive all tournament she will be a big threat, she will play Ons in the SF
