Now 62/104

The conversion rate of around 60% is not a big deal. The big deal is the bottom number of 103. I have not seen any player come to the net this many times recently since say, Taylor Dent (and he was not having success with it).

 

[the AntiPusher]

Halep holds....Taylor to serve 4-3

May I say Taylor really plays old school tennis at times,though it is working well against Halep

Oh nervy play Taylor was leading 40 love and then she does 2 straight DFs

Taylor holds with a high fhand volley she leads 5-3

Bravo Taylor..great strategy. Serve and volley .. yeah Baby
