Australian Open Day 6: Saturday, January 24

[Front242]

^ An even crazier stat!

 

[tented]

She won't win this tournament -- I don't think anyone truly thinks she will -- but it's great to see her healthy enough to do this well.

Serena about to get to a third set. Leads 5-2 in the 2nd.

 

[tented]

Serena doing that "champions find a way to win" thing, and turning around the match. Up 5-2 in the second.

Was thinking it may just be a bad day for her but she's playing much better now and looks likely to avoid Roger's fate.

Are you sure? As of now, I am not as sure as you are.
If Venus can beat Serena, She can win one of these. We KNOW Venus can beat Serena.

 

[tented]

She breaks, and takes the second set 6-2. She'll serve first in the third, which will be a huge plus for her.

I can't see Venus beating Aga, then Kvitova, then Serena, then Sharapova. :nono

Radwanska's beaten Venus easily the last 3 times they played and she's playing even better now under Navratilova's guidance so that's a tough match right there.

Great point to get to 40-15!

 

[Kirijax]

Serena channeling her inner Sharapova and winning ugly in three set matches.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Great volley Serena! love the way she keeps the racquet in front and keeps moving forward

I can see her beating Aga, Coco, Serena and Simona.
Anything can happen. Domi made it to finals last year.
Venus has a title this year, she must have confidence, she also knows her train is coming to it's destination soon, sense of urgency must be there.

 

[Front242]

^ I can't. In fact not a hope.

 

[tented]

Serena hands out a third set bagel. 4-6, 6-2, 6-0 :clap

 

[Front242]

Some return winner by Serena on match point.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

After a sluggish start Serena moves through to the next round with a strong win

Elina your played well in the 1st set,this is a good learning curve for you playing the world No 1.Good luck in your next tournament.

Serena will play Garbine in her next match

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Domi advanced too, in straight sets I might add. She is defending her points for now.
She will most probably get Vika next.

Yeah, the top half is congealing nicely: Serena, Venus, Aga, Garbine, Dominika ... and hopefully Vika, Petra, and Coco.
