WTA WTA Tour - 2019

Errani breaks back. Reading up it seems Errani has been serving underarm all match....

 

[JackNah_8]

Is she injured or just copying Nick K? lol

 

[pepsi]

This is bizarre Errani has just decided to serve every serve under arm at 4-4. Must be injured? Sharma breaks and will serve for the match.

She's done it a few times this week, she is serving like no other pro player I've ever seen before, it's shockingly bad! She's served a very high number of double faults in each match.

Her underarm serve is faster than her overarm serve

 

[Hamingja]

Sharma into the final in Bogota. She has a nice serve that flies through the air at the altitude.

What's the deal with her anyway? First time I'd heard of her was the mixed doubles at AO. She is 23 and gone through the College system. Did she grow up in Australia first or is she someone we have naturalised. Wiki has her born in Singapore to add to the mystery.

Sharma into the final. has only lost a set all week and thatwas a tiebreak in her first match.

 

[Hamingja]

It's 10 degrees in Switzerland and they are playing the final in jackets, Hercog has leggings on and Swiatek has track pants under her dress lol

 

[BobbyMorri]

Swiatek is going to be a gun

 

[BobbyMorri]

Tough gig. If he can get her back inside the top 10, then he deserves a medal

 

[Hamingja]

Gotta love WTA. Strycova just beat Rybakina 0-6 7-6 6-0.

Gotta love WTA. Strycova just beat Rybakina 0-6 7-6 6-0.

oh wow

what a scoreline, only in WTA

 

[Me Myself and I]

From Istanbul also, this would take some beating. Eleven breaks of serves to start the much, then Gasparyan serves out the set to love. They did well though with only five breaks in the second set.

 

[danstar]

Well things are sure opening up in Birmingham for Barty to move to world number 1. If she wins tonight there's basically nobody else left in the draw that can beat her.

Ostapenko just got knocked out after choking away a set and 5-2 lead.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Time to get this “Barty Party” started. Been looking forward to this match, it’ll be a nice challenge for Ash against a quality opponent in Venus Williams.

 

[danstar]

Found a online stream to watch the Barty party it's on now

 

[danstar]

When's the last time the average Joe stayed up to 1am just in a non slam tournament to watch an Aussie for all the right reasons it's a refreshing change from the last decade of brats coming through

 

[danstar]

Barty was down 4-1 early has recovered to 4-4 tricky opponent in Venus but she's worked her way into the match now nicely

 

[danstar]

Nice one Barty has won last 4 games and now serving for 1st set.

Incredible last 5 games of the set to win it 6-4

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Well done Ash, fought back to take the 1st set 6-4.
Shows how strong she really is right now, Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi!

 

[danstar]

Whoa!!!! Barty was hardly troubled after being down 4-1 early she won very easily in the end. 2 wins from a world number 1 spot

 

[rippersnipper]

Not that I think she'll feel that much pressure but I'd almost rather she went into Wimbledon as the second seed, rather than the first. You get so much more attention going in as the world no. 1, not that she isn't deserving of it if she reaches that milestone

 

[JackNah_8]

What's happened to Osaka, she's struggling lately. She also skipped the last press conference after losing, wasnt emotional prepared to front the media.

 

[danstar]

Barty well in control of her semi. 1 more win after this and she's number 1 in the world

 

[pepsi]

And she wins. Very impressive week post RG. Can't wait to watch tomorrow night.

 

[Hamingja]

Pulled out of the doubles with a right arm injury again. Might as well shelve doubles now for the time being.
