Pavs with the win....great tennis 9-7 in the 3rd

Well done Pavs!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Elena had a great tournament taking out Serena Williams she is young and this is a great learning experience for her.

 

[don_fabio]

Terrible way to end such a close match.

2 slight favorites out today in womens draw, badosa and rybakina

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Don this is your favorite part talking in French

 

[Hoergren]

Great match

 

[kskate2]

The UFE's really did Rybakina in. 43 = 11 games. Too many compared to Pavs 28. And it really pays dividends to serve first in the decider

 

[Jelenafan]

I am over the moon that Pavs gets to her first Major Semi finals!!

The little engine that could after 14+ years got over the hill....
