[Calvy]

Looks like we're in Melbourne again....lol!!

^ My commies just said the same thing lol!

First couple of games will tell the tale. If Serena is broken because she isn't serving well, it will feed Ana's confidence and vice-versa

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

I hope Serena realizes that and takes the necessary steps to avoid a repeat of that outcome.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Serena must apply pressure early to make Ivanovic bend.

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

A break here would be very important

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Stats for the 2nd set won by Ivanovic 63

Ivanovic w 9 ufe 14

Williams w 5 ufe 9

 

[kskate2]

2 BP's for Serena

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Serena breaks now she must maintain

 

[kskate2]

and she converts 2-0

 

[kskate2]

and a huge Come On.

 

[kskate2]

let's see if Ana has any fight in her

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Must hold to really get into ana's head.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Isn't this the same place they were in AO? third set, Serena up a break?

 

[kskate2]

3-0 for SW in the decider

 

[Calvy]

Ok, like that Serena is taking something off and using more placement for the first serve, and she's staying away from Ana's lethal forehand.

 

[kskate2]

I don't think Serena ever had a break in the decider Kiu. I believe she fell behind at 2-1 or 2-2

15-30 and Serena could break again

 

[Calvy]

On the stats they had Serena coming to the net more than Ana, I could have swore Ana was up there much more.
