I won't be around to watch it, but Coco will have her chances. I don't trust Goddess to blow her away today. Look what happened yesterday. She was bossing Jess, got tight near the finish line and had to play another set. Opportunities will be had, will Coco take them?

Agreed 100 percent

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Maria and Coco are doing their warm up on court now

 

[tossip]

Coco is playing ok right now.

I like the way she is committed to hitting the ball, that is the influence of Brad Gilbert I feel

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

A DF from Coco and she has the break back to Maria

Yep, it was a ill fan apparently

 

[tossip]

She broke back

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Coco has to stop going down the middle, make Maria move!

 

[tossip]

This set should have been over ten minutes ago

Coco started well and then went off the boil, she consolidated the break

 

[tossip]

Just surprised that Maria has one title at 28yrs.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

It is a very hot day

Fun Fact,
Coco Gauff, bidding to become the first teenager to have 4 titles since Caroline Woznicacki 2009

 

[PhiEaglesfan712]

Coco Gauff breaks to win the first set 6-2.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Coco break again to take the 1st set 62

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Just surprised that Maria has one title at 28yrs.

Agree, a lot of it is mental with Maria, she has a good coach in Tom Hill, also had Mark P as a coach for Wimbledon, went out in the 1st rd

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

The best thing Coco has done is to engage Brad Gilbert, you can see the improvements in her game already, I hope he stays around full time

She is a very good athlete, though you have to have the mental strength, to win titles as well,
