Servebot #1 vs. Servebot #2 amiright?

 

[LuuKyK]

Battle of the servebots. lol

 

[Space Avocat]

promising start to this match. Hoping for 3

 

[TJ Verboten]

Keys looks like a future Slam winner going forward.

Keys was toe to toe with Serena, hitting her own share of aces, hitting big from the ground, not blinking for the most part (except that sitter return down 5-3 in the tiebreak).

Serena had to play her A game at the end of that set to pull it off, just barely.
Great stuff from both players.

Keys looks like the best American female tennis player to come along since the Williams sisters in the late 90s.
No false prophet here (assuming her thigh doesn't become a recurrent issue in her career).

 

[tycoonheart]

I'm just glad there is a young American player who has the potential to be a star.

ESPN comparing Serena to Tom Brady.

Spoiler alert!! >:O

 

[MIMIC]

Keys just won't go away, will she? xD

 

[Wafflecakes]

Love how the cameras NEVER show replays of incorrect line judge calls.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Keys is going down swinging. dat 90mph forehand winner

 

[MIMIC]

Somebody screamed "kill it".

Madison did not oblige

 

[Niraj]

I like how Keys doesn't really seem to get upset. She's had similar reactions in other matches too. Good quality to have.

 

[MIMIC]

Serena, just give her the game. Damn! lol

 

[perfectchaos007]

Serena just trying to extend her workout at this point

 

[LuuKyK]

This last game. Hilarious.

 

[MIMIC]

Heh, that 1 game was more entertaining than the entire match. 8 deuces, 7 MPs

 

[Space Avocat]

Kit-kat this shiz madison llaves! Gimme a breeeaakkkkk

 

[Omzz]

[MIMIC]

One of the sets was a tiebreak? Lol. I don't have a good feeling about this tbh. Sometimes I think there's a chance for a competitive match and a few times we've had that for at least part of the match but servebot mode at AO here.. eh. Have to vod both sfs tho.

 

[LuuKyK]

Maria can PEAK, if Serena is in her servebot mode (which lets be honest, she will be, I mean, its a final), it wont matter. /shrug

 

[perfectchaos007]

The Legends Doubles match featuring Lindsey Davenport today has been cancelled. She's probablybusy consoling her student.

 

[greenleaves]

Hewitt just announced that he is retiring in a year from now to become Australia's Davis Cup Captain.

 

[Rainy]

Berdych just playing so good.

 

[Speevy]

Damn it Berdych you had that shit.

 

[MIMIC]

I don't think I can't stay up for this. >_< I may just watch it later in the day or something.

Hewitt just announced that he is retiring in a year from now to become Australia's Davis Cup Captain.

Wow. Interesting that he's announcing so far ahead of his actual retirement.

Come onnnnnn it's already this late, what's a few more hours >_>

 

[MIMIC]

Come onnnnnn it's already this late, what's a few more hours >_>

Heh, I have a lot I need to get done in the afternoon...because I was lazy and did nothing yesterday

 

[killer_clank]

terrible service from murray so far and was deservedly broken but then berdych flapped a bit there.

 

[MIMIC]

Murray's 100% defensive, reactionary game makes me physically ill.

 

[beasty]

ESPN comparing Serena to Tom Brady.

Shameless

Why is it shameless?

 

[Rainy]

#deflategate down under

 

[killer_clank]

#deflategate down under

it did seem to suddenly come at a critical point in the game

 

[MIMIC]

Still can't believe Murray has two slams. Unforgivable, Novak -_____-

Why is it shameless?

It was a dumb comparison. They were comparing Serena's service motion to Tom Brady throwing a football. Like....what?

#deflategate down under

lol

meh....I'll go to bed after the first set.

 

[John Dunbar]

despite his best efforts, berdych managed to win the first set.

 

[MIMIC]

YESSS!!!! 2 more, Berdy! Hopefully when I wake up you'll be in the final
