The WTA site lists Ivanovic as 6' (1.84m), and Serena as 5'9" (1.75m). Both seem wrong when looking at them on TV: Ivanovic appears shorter, and Serena looks taller.

4-1. This is going to be over quite quickly, as KSKATE2, whose powers of prediction are legendary, foretold.

5-1 -- Serena will serve for the championship.

Isn't it odd she's never won here? Well, until today. Soon.

Well hopefully Serena goes into the US Open confident. At least her serve is on point, and the return is getting there. The ground game still needs a bit more work. However, two hard court titles going into the open as well as the series winner should bolster her confidence.

Evert said she won 100% of points if she got her 1st serve in -- that's amazing.

No magic for Ana today, as I suspected.

Serena had all the marbles today, played her best match. She had magic.
Congrads to Serena on #62

There is good news for Serena going into the Open. Although she hasn't been thoroughly convincing in form aside from the serve, none of the other girls has been remotely convincing in their form either. In fact, the women as a collective whole have been rather mediocre this summer. I hope that changes and we get fantastic matches from start to finish at the Open. No doubles Serena!

I would tell them to just give me the check and keep the vase. Well this only leaves Sydney for Serena to win now :D!

That will be a difficult one to get. At this stage of her career she doesnt want to play the week before a slam

Does anyone know whether Serena has the "Carrer Golden Premiere" now?
i.e., winning all four premier mandatory tournaments and all five premier-5 tourneys
sometime in the career?

Just don't know how Serena can have a conversation with Chrissy after what she did to Serena. Serena is truly a good person.
