Australian Open 2017 - Day 9

[BobbyMorri]

Fed v Rafa - Venus v Serena. what year is this.

Muguruza is getting scary though. every day she is getting stronger.

 

[BobbyMorri]

Those double-faults killed her today at so many important moments.

I'd like to see Venus somehow win it all this year, but she won't.

A Serena-Venus/Federer-Nadal set of finals would be a real blast from the past if it happened.

when she got that 2nd serve in, Venus would smash it down the line.

I hope Venus gets Muguzura next match. Odds would heavily be in Venus' favour. 3-0 record against her.

Is Venus going to win I wonder? I want a Serena vs Venus Grand Final.

Hope not and thankfully it won't be.

 

[ItsGameTime]

Hope not and thankfully it won't be.

Venus is still in it though. I think Serena will go all the way.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Great win for Venus.

Definitely a hint of nostalgia with her advancing to the semis.

 

[ChookMFC]

Assuming Serena makes the final (as you'd be crazy not to discount) Coco Vandeweghe would have to beat every one of 2016's grand slam champions to win this tournament.

 

[Hawkas1988]

I actually like Venus. Very very happy for her making the semis

Nadal going in favourite on Sportsbet vs Raonic tomorrow. Hmm, I disagree but we will see.

 

[ChookMFC]

I love-hate Coco Vandeweghe's arrogance and swagger.

 

[ChookMFC]

Impressive start from Vanders. No nerves there at all.

Pliskova is the favourite personally.

Venus won't beat Mug

 

[Xtreme]

Good job with the schedule prediction

I would say Serena is for me.

Venus' 3-0 record against Mug says it all for me really. I feel she will beat Mug comfortably

Good job with the schedule prediction

Thanks, it took until day 10 but finally nailed one!

Mug might not even beat Vandeweghe.

Come on garbi

 

[ChookMFC]

This is turning into a pivotal game.

EDIT: What a way to get the break after all that work; a double fault hands it to Vanders.

 

[JackNah_8]

Break! Coco might actually beat mugu

 

[ChookMFC]

Coco Vandeweghe is playing tournament-winning tennis these last two matches.

 

[ChookMFC]

Vandeweghe takes the first set. C'mon Vanders!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Mug when you are useless you really are useless

I'm going to have a snooze

A Venus v Serena Final would be so boring. In fact if Serena gets to the Final I won't be watching, really don't like her at all. As much as I like Federer I am so over the love making from CH7, wish they would give Stan some love and scheduled his match for tonight, as that might be a bit more entertaining, plus I would be home in time to watch. Sunday televising was so annoying, why didn't they have the two channels broadcasting matches instead of one. If both Swiss get to the semi, I'm going for Stan.

I'm actually looking forward to the women's double match after the men's match tonight, should be entertaining. The Aussies v The FO champions.
