^ Agree,I knew it was going to be a dog fight in that 3rd set,I could see the writing on the wall as well.
US Open Day 3: Wednesday, August 27
- Thread starter Moxie
- Start date
Sloane has all the physical gifts to be great,whats lacking is between the ears... has zero self esteem.I think she envies Serena s confidence and always ask herself why she doesnt have that..thats why she is always bitter and applauds Serena s losses.

Belinda Benci, the unseeded 17 year old from Switzerland, has won her second match
at USO.
She just beat Kurumi Nara, a seeded player and that too with a score line of 6-1 in the final set.
Looks like at this rate she may be ready to win the Mixed Doubles Gold Medal along with
Roger in 2016. Way to go girl. :clap

Simo/Jana started, JJ is warming up.
Angie Kerber took first set 6-2, her quarter is wide open now.

Piotr to Caro before the match:
Caro, remember I sent you to boxing class a few years ago? It was mainly to get you meaner and more aggressive on court. I want you to treat this next opponent like that punching bag you used to punch.
The above statement was imagined by Tennis Frontier correspondent, no relations to Piotr.

Behind 2-0 and facing game point, Simo roars back and takes the next 6 games for a 6-2 first set.
Puig/Petko started, Puig gets early break. Lets go Monica.

I'm back. I see Sloane exited and it appears it doesn't matter who her coach is. She kicked Annacone when the problem is within her. I see Simo has MP and JJ wins the opening set over Piro

Simo came back strong, after losing first 2 games, she only lost 1 game the rest of the way.
A performance worthy of #2 seed.

Looks like Sharapova started.
You know my in-laws are in town from the Czech Republic (yeah bad timing I know) and Sharapova was playing a couple nights ago and my FIL didn't even know who was playing and said 'Oh you can identify that noise anywhere in the world, you know exactly who it is'
I was thinking maybe she does it as a brand thing now. She couldn't stop even if she wanted to

Caro is on too. Ahead 5-1, she will serve for the first set.
Monica and Petko are playing 3rd set, Monica was ahead 4-1 but just got broken.
