[Si Si Simona]

cant believe it really and in such a boring fashion

Meanwhile, Genie is in trouble

Blondes crises!

 

[Kirijax]

Alright! Muguruza is playing amazing. Keep it up and knock Sharapova OUT!

Why does Sharapova's dress have to be so freaking tiny and tight? She's pulling it down after every point.

Meanwhile, Genie is in trouble

Garbine has the first one in, but Genie is indeed in trouble. I don't have anything against CSN, but I'm not really a fan either. Still I did expect for CSN to be better on clay than Genie.

 

[kskate2]

Mugu holds 1-0. This is where Maria notoriously digs her heels in and the opponents get tight. Mugu needs to keep the pressure on right here, right now.

 

[Si Si Simona]

What do I know about tennis? I gave Garbine no chance of winning a set. I wanted her to win but didn't expect her to take a set.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Garbine going for too much on her serve

2 DFs in a row?

 

[kskate2]

Maria holds and then breaks. This is what I was talking about. Can't give Maria time to settle in.

 

[Kirijax]

And the tide has turned. Come on Muguruza!

 

[kskate2]

Mugu has lost the plot a bit. Not moving Maria around, hitting too many balls in the center of the court while committing too many errors.

 

[Rose]

^^I don't think she has lost the plot. I would have loved seeing this Match without that tape on Garbine's leg!

 

[Si Si Simona]

2-3 Garbine really holding her brain nicely, not breaking mentally. That's the crucial point when you play masha.
