Australian Open 2023 SF: Victoria Azarenka vs. Elena Rybakina

[MargaretMcAleer]

She has found the FH again and pushed Elena off the baseline

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

What the hell a DF from Elena

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Elena you are rushing too much on your serve, slow down a bit

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Good recovery Elena

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Vika 3 2nd serves and all the BPs and you fluffed it

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Great recovery and hold saving 3 BPs to hold from Elena
Vika? Honestly?

 

[kskate2]

Wow. Vika can't break at 0-40. Elena escapes for 6-5

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Vika that game your fluffed might come back to haunt you?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

6 games all t/break

 

[kskate2]

Edgy TB, but Elena takes it 7-4

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Oh well Vika I did say that match when you had 3BPs would come back to haunt you and it did , too many UFE in the t/break

 

[kskate2]

They both had chances to win that set. Elena served for it and had SP. Vika had 0-40 and couldn't break and then a lackluster TB settles it

 

[kskate2]

Critical time for Vika. She can't afford to get down in this set.

 

[kskate2]

3 MP's for Elena to get to the final

 

[kskate2]

Vika saves 1, but can't save the others. Elena moves on to the final 7-6 6-3.

 

[the AntiPusher]

Wow. Vika can't break at 0-40. Elena escapes for 6-5

Keli can you imagine a final between Vika and Saba! I think the tennis Gods will spare us from listening to those screaming hyenas !
