And of course for a set I don't personally have an interest in, Halep holds first time out.:stretcher:

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Venus had a set point on Yaroslava's serve, but the Kazak won 3 straight pts to hold. 5-all.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Yaroslava loses the tiebreak from 5-2 up.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Kerber serving for the match.

 

[nbafan88]

What's Halep live up to. If she figures out her serve....

 

[nbafan88]

Halep mixing things up! Let's go

 

[BetCrimes1984]

It's rare for a player to win consecutive matches this deep in a Slam after losing both 1st sets unless they're a multiple Slam winner. I wouldn't bet Halep, chances are strong she runs out of gas even if she forces a 3rd.

 

[nbafan88]

Yup

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Her pathetic serving in the 1st cost her any chance she had in the match, it's that simple.

 

[nbafan88]

The service game is so poor

 

[KJ]

lol

 

[KJ]

Just woke up to see Halep making some great shots, then this for the TB? yikes

 

[nbafan88]

Serena -1200 is free money lol

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Just woke up to see Halep making some great shots, then this for the TB? yikes

The match was decided in the 1st set. Halep was lehtal off the ground against Kerber's serve, but pretty much all at sea on her own serve. Inexplicable. If she was poor in both instances, it would've been understandable. But the sheer fact of serving sent her ground game awol.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Venus rolling in the 2nd. Yaroslava backers went back to her one too many times (saw her odds drop 5 cents).

 

[nbafan88]

I didn't know kerbers return game was that good. Hadn't seen much of her lately

 

[BetCrimes1984]

It's what won her the AO final. But no, it hadn't been at its best since the AO final really.

 

[nbafan88]

I do not want to see a Serena/Venus final. Hate watching them play

 

[nbafan88]

Serena/Kerber is pretty much set in stone

 

[KJ]

I don't even watch those matches when they play each other

 

[nbafan88]

They're unbettable because both players don't give their all

 

[nbafan88]

Lol pavly thinks she has beaten Serena before. Lol how do you not remember

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Serena threw the 2nd set vs. Venus at the USO last year. Plain as day.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

2 impressive pts to start for the Russian.

 

[KJ]

Silence in that place

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Very solid ground game to win those 2 pts, she has to be more than just a big server here.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Big serve for the game. 1 down, 6 to go.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

wow, winner smashed back off a 1st serve.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

horrific UE from Serena, should've been an easy pt to win, 15-0

 

[BetCrimes1984]

poor bh to a routine ball, 30-all

 

[KJ]

mental

 

[KJ]

3 held service games to start, this is remarkable

 

[BetCrimes1984]

2 down, 5 to go

 

[BetCrimes1984]

William's serve is on early, not been the norm deep in Slams this year.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

2nd consecutive service game she's had a massive 1st serve at 30-all

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Williams finding the edges of lines on big pts, flukey cow.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

ace the base

 

[BetCrimes1984]

horrible bh UE on a soft 2nd serve.

3 down, 4 to go.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

another UE from Serena.

and yet another, 0-30

 

[BetCrimes1984]

big serving to the fore again

 

[BetCrimes1984]

another good 1st serve, 4 down 3 to go.

would LOVE her to hold her next service game.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Pavly needed that winner, has to feel she's in Serena's service games with a chance

 

[BetCrimes1984]

DF, didn't expect one of those

 

[BetCrimes1984]

the only consolation to that, is she'll serve first in the next set

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Vesnina up 3-1

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Vesnina 3 BP for a 4-1 lead. Looks like Cibu's tank is dead empty.

 

[nbafan88]

Looks like domi can keep her wedding date set.

 

[nbafan88]

When I read that article I was a bit shocked she would lack that much confidence in herself

 

[BetCrimes1984]

big big hold for Pavly. 2 to go.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

adv. Vesnina for a 5-1 lead.
