US Open Day 4: Thursday, August 28

[Front242]

Looking like a 3rd set for sure now.

 

[Moxie]

And it will be a third. I hope Genie can pull it off.

 

[Front242]

Don't count Cirstea out by any means. With the windy conditions I can see Bouchard over hitting herself to doom quite easily.

 

[Si Si Simona]

and Sori does the impossible and takes 2nd set. Genie is a shadow of herself since the Wimby disaster. Never recovered from it. The old Genie would have finished it quick in 2 sets.
But I am sure Genie takes 3rd set. Sori is a total mess in her head.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well played t/breaker from Sorana 76 (4)

Genie needs to cut down on her ufe,it was kind of her undoing in the 2nd set

 

[Si Si Simona]

Don't count Cirstea out by any means. With the windy conditions I can see Bouchard over hitting herself to doom quite easily.

I totally count her out. She has no stability and no backbone. I cant see her win.

 

[Si Si Simona]

Its such a crazy match. Cant predict any point played but the match will be won by the more stable one, Genie.

 

[Front242]

Nice hold. Have a feeling Bouchard will serve up a gunk fest here.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Genie's fhand has been letting her down,I dont like her technique on her fhand at all

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

I am thoroughly enjoying the ups and downs of this match, it's intense out there.
Sorana is holding her own, she is not backing away.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Love break for Genie in the 3rd game of the deciding set.
It was Sorana who had a lousy service game.
Bouchard ahead 2-1

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Sorana's is reverting back to her play in the 1st set,over hitting her shots,which dont have much error for margin

 

[Si Si Simona]

Sorana is holding her own, she is not backing away.

If she could only back away from her own madness she would have saved her career
She is kuku for a long time. Lots of talent, no tennis brains. She is a very smart intelligent sensible girl in real life, but her tennis is a nightmare.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Another tough hold for Cirstea and it's 3-2 with Bouchard serving. Up a break.
This is not over yet, Sorana was pressuring Genie's serve last game, I think she will keep pressure on, lets see how Genie holds.

 

[Si Si Simona]

Sorana cant win ANY match at present. She will be out of the 100 soon. Needs that big slap to make her change her brain.

 

[Front242]

Sorana cant win ANY match at present. She will be out of the 100 soon. Needs that big slap to make her change her brain.

Told you already, don't count her out She may yet win it. Wouldn't surprise me if she does.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

But can win a game, breaks Genie to get back on serve, converts her second break point after leading 40-15. Genie hits one in the net to make it all even at 3-3 in the 3rd set.

 

[Front242]

Doh :nono

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Sorana d/faults and give the break back

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

One more break and we will have break-fest.

I wouldn't be surprised if it came, the nerves have been super high.
