Beaten for speed there from Begu on Serena's fhand side and she is broken serving for the 1st set

It's very green.

I swear, sometimes it’s as if Nike wants people to look bad against the clay background.

Wait to you see Rafa in Green tomorrow

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Oh Serena that 5-2 lead you had is gone 5 all

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Serena Stop Rushing Your Shots please

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Begu with 4 successive game and will serve for the 1st set 6-5

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Serena really knows how to let a match get away from her these days.

 

[kskate2]

She's in trouble now. Can't hold serve in a 1st rounder. She will be shown the door if she can't get her serve numbers up.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Serena off the hook and the 1st set will go to a t break.Serena needs her serve more than ever

She's not off the hook yet. TB could go either way. She used to be $$ in TBs

She needs her ground game in order. Those errors, yikes.

 

[Fefe26]

I can't watch anymore of this match.. serena is making me angry.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

She needs her ground game in order. Those errors, yikes.

Yep they are mounting

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Serena wins the t/break with a swing volley
We can look at it another way Serena needs this type of match,match toughness and getting out of tricky situations when not playing her best.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Serena really has an opportunity at this slam if she plays within herself. She really can’t afford to let these opportunities slip by with seeds falling. She really needs to give it her everything and stop these random slow starts or mid-match randomness, and for the ever loving god stop rushing everything.

I felt like she had a good chance here in 2019. Remember how the draw from Hades just fell away and she lost in the 3R to Kenin.

I agree. The biggest problem I see for her is she is just rushing through things and it costs her greatly. She doesn’t stop for a second and try to reset things. It’s like she is resigned to whatever her fate is.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Where Serena really needs to be is at the net and give these ladies a different look. The baseline is killing her in these matches. Mix it up. Her net numbers are great for this match.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Serena really? hitting straight to Begu 3 times in a row
