And this time gets the job done at love.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Of course I had a phone call and I missed her serving out this 1st set 64

I have now turned on my voice machine

 

[Kirijax]

Wow at Venus. What has come over her this year? She's playing great!

I saw her play against Petra in Cincinnati last year, she is a superb counter-puncher, she defeated Petra.


Venus up 5-1 and 2 points away.

 

[Front242]

Giorgi made her look better than she was in all honesty. Giorgi's serve was awful and while she played great at first she totally went off the boil. Good to see Venus make the 2nd week of a slam for the first time in 3.5 years though all the same. With a better serve though Giorgi would've run away with that match.

Has it been that long? Holy Holey!:eyepop

 

[Front242]

That's what the commentators said yup. A long time!

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Domi pulls a rabbit out of her hat and takes the first set from Cornet, Alize was ahead and lost the set.

 

[tented]

That's what the commentators said yup. A long time!

And hasn't won a GS since the '08 Wimbledon, which seems really strange.
