Konta giving this away. Her opponent barely started and to lose the first set was terrible play.

all going to shite now.

that said, Serena would wipe the floor with both of these.

I've got to go out at 6pm so looks like I'm going to miss the end- unless of course Konta continues with the form she's displayed since the sixth game in which case it won't matter anyhow.

Looking that way, it's been a hell of a turnaround. 8 of the last 10 games including the tie break, and halfway to a 9th.

This is her most dangerous opponent

She's running rings round Konta

She's running rings round Konta

I meant her head but you are right - she is being battered by lack of pace on the ball and guile.

 

[The Bridge Lad]

That's as close as Konta has come to breaking since Strycova's opening service game, and she still didn't get past 30. Time running out.

 

[BIG BAZ]

Strycova is nailing absolutely every shot

 

[Deleted member 36123]

8 unforced errors vs 30 from Konta.

Once again she is beating herself!

 

[BIG BAZ]

how many times has she hit long ?

What was that

 

[The Bridge Lad]

Smith's right, that basically sums it up.

40-0 up and broken.

 

[Deleted member 36123]

Serena will be looking forward to the final I reckon.

Horrendous collapse

Did Sam Smith just genuinely ask if Strycova has ever played a better match up?
