Like Cornet did.......
What are we talking about here?
Colliins trainer and boyfriend is ex AFL player Tom Couch. Not sure if he is still on the scene.
He is.
Swiatek looks like a scared little girl compared to Collins
American female tennis players seem to like ex AFL players, Aminsova dates Paul Roos son.

Collins looks like she could fall apart
The typical Florida resident is an elderly retiree

Not seeing a lot from either that would trouble Barty.

Peak bash Collins could but I dont think it lasts any longer than 2-3 games each set.

True but I don’t see Ash sending down many 130kmh sitter serves to get unloaded on.
I think Collins will throw the sink at Barty bit like Anisimova did and then end up getting comprehensively beaten
Collins could easily cause Ash some trouble by beating up on her forehand
But it’s been clear for a couple of rounds now that Barty’s biggest threat is herself. She is very capable of going walkabout at any time and handing the match to her opponent
Im confident Barty will win she’s not going to slip at the final hurdle

Correct pronunciations
Collins would need to play the match of her life and Barty would need to be well off the pace.
It's possible but I don't see it happening.

I'd say beating up on the top spin backhand would cause issues. Force Ash into playing as much of them as possible as the ball doesn't have as much pace or spin on it like her slice and forehand. If Ash is using the top spin more Collins would be in the match up to her eyeballs if she minimises the mistakes.
Collins bashing everything strategy could be her undoing here, the shock factor for her opponent is now gone.
Although IGA lost the set, the match has changed from when she was struggling to hold serve at 4-0...

Swiatek got away with her 2nd serve last match. not so, this one
Collins is killing it.
Collins is killing it.
We said the same thing about Anisimova and Keys and Ash beat them both convincingly
I’ll be shocked if Ash looses

Nah. Players who succeed against her are the ones who pin her on the forehand side with heavy balls, denying her the room to dictate with it
Target her backhand and she will just play defensively and slice until she has the opportunity to run around it and hit the forehand I/O or I/I, which is her money shot
