US Open - Day 5 - Discussion (Women)

I think the Incredible C-Bulk puts the resurgent Genie back in the bottle

I had to think about that one for a min. (it's 4 am here)

And I like it! :snicker

Avid sports fan that you are, I guess I shouldn't be surprised you're up at 4am watching TV tennis!

 

[Kirijax]

Holy Moley. That's 4 straight games by Venus. Beating Hingis for old times sake.

 

[kskate2]

I will be gratefully wrong about this match if Venus serves this out.

 

[kskate2]

30-0

 

[kskate2]

3 MP's for the oldest woman in the tourney

 

[kskate2]

Venus does it! Bye bye Belinda. :wave

This has to be considered an upset because Belinda was ranked higher at 12.

 

[Moose]

Well done, Venus. See, isn't it better to win in 2 rather than 3!

 

[Kirijax]

She's got it!
Yeah, baby, she's got it!
She's our Venus, She's on fire!
USO's her desire!

Sorry, couldn't resist. :blush:

 

[kskate2]

Venus is clearing the way for Serena. :snicker

 

[tossip]

My picks are
Serena
Venus
Aga

Venus yay....two to go ...Serena will definitely win....Aga will struggle to win but will win.

 

[the AntiPusher]

Well done, Venus. See, isn't it better to win in 2 rather than 3!

Wow very good effort by Venus Williams

 

[Kirijax]

Wasn't Vinci up 6-1, 4-1 or something like that? Duque-Marino suddenly takes the 2nd set.

I really hate hyphenated names.

Was Bencic really a threat to Serena quest?

 

[Kirijax]

Venus is clearing the way for Serena. :snicker

Was Bencic really a threat to Serena quest?

Seeing how Bencic beat Serena in Toronto, yes.

 

[tossip]

Cibby will humble Genie...

 

[tossip]

Venus has always beaten Belinda..

 

[tossip]

Venus is clearing the way for Serena. :snicker

:snicker.....yes Davenport used to complain that sometimes they never got to play Serena because Venus was in the way....yeah why not for family..

 

[Calvy]

Venus is clearing the way for Serena. :snicker

Was Bencic really a threat to Serena quest?

Seeing how Bencic beat Serena in Toronto, yes.

Hmm!! I disagree, I think any player is a threat. I just think many have overstated Bencic's threat.

 

[tossip]

Cibby is a little ball of fire...

 

[Kirijax]

Just watched the Venus-Bencic highlights. Wow. Venus was on fire. That was some solid ball-striking there. Felt good watching it. Bencic may have got caught up in playing Venus' game and got blown out of the tournament.
