Bartoli is on a mission, and playing aggressive, focussed tennis. She also has the experience of having been in this final before, but doesn't want to walk away empty handed again. Bartoli in two.

Marion is good on the grass and I think this will be a toss up. I give Sabine the slight edge because she has won the only 2 meetings on grass. And for those wondering, Marion's father is supposed to be there today. Sabine in 3.

Good morning or afternoon all. The chat will be open for the womens final. All comments will be added to thread tomorrow

So we have begun. Lisicki breaks in the first game of the match after being up 40-15, going to deuce, and Bartoli double faulting twice in a row from there to hand her the break.

OF COURSE she gives it right back. Nerves.

After trading breaks, Marion holds. On serve 2-1

 

[kskate2]

Marion has settled down and Sabine is still a bundle of nerves. Drops serve again. 3-1

I had a feeling this would be a touch easier for Maid Marion as she has been in the situation before

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

I dont know if I want to live in a world where Marion Bartoli is a potential slam winner

 

[kskate2]

Marion holds at love. 4-1

 

[kskate2]

Maybe it will take a set for Sabine to settle down. Well see.

I hope so

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Right now Maid Marion wants her slam lol

 

[kskate2]

true. I see more desire from her side of the net.

 

[kskate2]

I wonder if Sabine has been reading the press and knows shes the favorite

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Well if you knock off Stosur, Serena and Aga you better believe people are expecting you to come home with the trophy

 

[kskate2]

true

Sabrine is very tight and nervous.

Man, Martina Hingis looks fantastic.

 

[kskate2]

another error. 5-1

Maid Marion is thrashing her at the moment
