Great point between Doi and Azarenka just now. 5-5 first set. Misaki Doi had set point at 5-4 in Vika's serve but is now facing BP's in her own serve. EDIT Doi takes first set in tie-break! 3 DF's from Vika in the tie-break. Great play from Doi but Vika is not the same this year after her injury.

AO finalist Domi Cibulkova is out in first round against 15 year old Catherine Bellis (ranked #1208).  No camera on that court but it went 3 sets: 6/1 4/6 6/4. This is Bellis 3 years ago:

Quite the battle between Petkovic and Puig right now. Puig was up 4-1 in the final set but then Petko smashed her racket to pieces and won 4 straight games. The german now leads 5-4.

Sodium Chloride posted:As exciting as the Venus match is, Halep is in deep poo poo now a set and two breaks down. Halep hasn't been playing great recently so it isn't a huge shock. Pretty huge upset to me. Halep out to Lucic Baroni.  EDIT I've been watching Kerber vs Bencic and the swiss has come back from being down 2-5 in the second set. Kerber took a bathroom break changing clothes after first set loss 1-6.  She was up 5-2 in the second but now Bencic is back and serving for the match (winning 4 games in a row)EDIT2 Aaaand Kerber is out. Great match by Bencic, did not flinch. fancyclown fucked around with this message at 20:28 on Aug 29, 2014 |

Masha vs Wozniacki coming up and later Bencic vs Janković.  I think most of the matches so far has been pretty disappointing quality wise. Time to pick this poo poo up now going into second week!

Glare Seethe posted:This one's kind of delivering so far. Getting a little testy out there now, I very much hope Wozniacki wins it. Holy gently caress what a point for the break! Go Wozniacki!! EDIT Masha is grunting so loud and long now. Some points she doesn't stop it when the ball is on Carro's courtside either.

Old Wozniacki is back! She gets everything back right now.  TENNIS.com @Tennis posted:Clouds coming in, by the way. Not sure this match is in danger, but all others probably are.

Josh Lyman posted:I'd like to see her go for the lines a little more instead of throwing everything down the middle. Sharapova can make errors, sure, but she also doesn't hesitate going for cross court winners. Hitting winners down the line isn't exactly Wozniacki's style of play.  EDIT She's done it! Great match for Wozniacki

Yeah, Eurosport reported that it was heat stroke. How the gently caress could they let her back out on court? She was smiling and laughing in the press room hours later though, so thats good. Sooo who thinks Kei has a chance to win today? The odds for him to win are ridiculous, I'm tempted to put a small bet on the moneyline. EDIT it's getting hard to breathe just by watching this. Even hotter today in NY than yesterday. fancyclown fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Sep 6, 2014 |

This it not the time to DF Kei..... EDIT  Djoko still huge favourite odds wise. Damnit, I can't hedge my bet on Kei when he is one set from the final!

Sodium Chloride posted:Cilic is a huge choker so there is still a way through for Federer... but the match is going fast and something big needs to happen for a momentum change. That's what I'm thinking. Cilic can't keep this up. But Federer needs to change that shirt. EDIT changing shirt. To another blue/green one though. fancyclown fucked around with this message at 22:34 on Sep 6, 2014 |

ChaosReaper posted:I can't see Federer pulling this out. Cilic is just smashing the ball and Federer can't do anything to blunt that power. If Federer manages to take the 3d set, Cilic will be smashing those balls on the wrong side of the lines more often. Got to take Cilic out of his rythm somehow. fancyclown fucked around with this message at 22:51 on Sep 6, 2014 |
