Serena Williams over Maria Sharapova
First, I'd like to share what I like in Serena's game, and sometimes compare to Masha's game:
- Serena is serving very well - first serve with a lot power, very difficult to return. The second one is of cuz more careful, and the aim of carefulness is not to make a double fault
....I had to say that, because she's one of not too many players
this week who thinks when she's serving, in this tough windy conditions. As everybody know, Masha still has the problems to back on her normal level in serving, though she improved a little;
- Serena is not fast, that's an obvious thing, though she's moving well on court, so the balls which will back to the baseline she should return without problems. I think its a good point here, as I noticed Masha preferes to hit the ball with not so much strike as of late. This is due to the fact she makes too much UE's as she wants to hit to the sideline.
- Ree also has the advantage with her powerful forehand;
- Masha is a very tough mental player, and one of the best fighters on tour (thats my opinion). But Ree is a tough one as well. When the things will goes wrong, she'll stay calm, and then fight with more determination. That is one of the main reasons why she won AO;
- Ree try to limits an errors, and Masha makes too much UE's as of late;
- although a break, I think Ree is playin on the similar level as at Sydney, and Masha seems hasnt changed too much in her game lately;
- and the last one thought,
not my, but I think I've been growin up a little in this betting world for this years
, so some things has to be understable in a different way - a reverse thinking to the revenge factor. I understand that Masha wants the revenge....
"she knows it, I know it, you know it, even the president knows it" @Ccl ..lol, but Ree also wants to show up, that she can beat Masha the second time, and this final at AO wasnt only some kind of luck. Well, I believe she can do that. GL
