Don you were right Barbora wins the 1st set 76

That was gutsy play from Krejcikova at the end. She deserved it, but appears to be tired a bit. If Gauff stays focused she can still win this in 3.

Agree.

I have a question. Can a bad ball toss be used as a part of the tactic, sort of irritating your opponent?

I dont think so,it is the fault of the server.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Early break for Barbora,Coco fhand letting her down
Coco looks dejected to me,body language not good,probably after losing the 1st set,where she had all the chances to win

 

[don_fabio]

I dont think so,it is the fault of the server.

Fair point. Okay I'm going to lunch. Coco falling apart here, she needs to break back

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Too many UFE from Coco,she has to stop rushing her shots for starters.

Barbora leads 3-0
