P.Badosa v M.Kostyuk one set a piece starting the 3rd and final set now

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Barbora please dont give Jelena pace she just feeds off it no? facing a BP
This is what top players do,they find their best shots when under the pump and facing BP
Great 2 serves with placement and Barbora holds,leads 5-3 in the final set.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

On her 3rd Match Point Krejcikova d Ostapenk0 26 64 64
Barbora turned around the match,taking pace off her serve,using better placement,also using her slice more and breaking up the rhythm of Ostapenko
Well played Barbora!....she will play Victoria Azarenka in her next match

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Maria Sakkari had no trouble in her match against Kudermetova 64 61 she will play Jessica Pegula in her next match

Please ladies dont wear identical kits when playing one another....thanks in advance to Paula and Marta

 

[Carol]

It took 3 sets she came through 26 75 64

Yep, she is playing really good, I'm glad she feels so good because she says last year she went through a tough time with depression

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Paula Badosa will play the winner of M.Keys v Q.Wang match which is still being played and also has gone to 3 sets

[Hoergren]

Nice Butterfly shoes - wonder how many variations she has

But even wearing them she loses a nailbiting match - but you come back Naomi

Look at the stats

 

[Vince Evert]

Gutted by Naomi's defeat , also in a final set tiebreaker (which i do not agree with but i'm not the only one) , but America's Amanda Anisimova showed great bravery saving two matches down 4-5 and serving. Amanda's got a wonderful game and she deserves her fourth round match-up versus Barty.

 

[Hoergren]

I hope you all remember the Butterfly situation - well here it is in pictures

She now rushes 70 places down in the live rankings and of course in the oficial after AO

Naomi met her match and hopefully she will start playing clay and grass courts this year.

Well you can thank Isner & Co. who can never break serve for changing the rules regarding final set TB's.

 

[Moxie]

Maria Sakkari had no trouble in her match against Kudermetova 64 61 she will play Jessica Pegula in her next match

Glad to see that. Pointless post of the day: Does anyone else enjoy saying "Kudermetova" out loud, and does it make you think of Hakuna Matata?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Just got home

Was confident Ash Barty would win in straight sets over Giorgi.Camila has never won a match against Ash

Holy Moly Ash Barty vs Darren Cahill

Come On Killer dont upset The Barty Party No?
