I don't get what's going on. This is mysterious. Apparently Williams family confused. I'm not sure if she's injured or tight. But she needs to get her body moving. She should be running sprints during the changeover and not sitting down!

If Serena is playing so horribly, why is the score 4-3 now? I just don't believe she's doing that badly out there.
But I can't bear to look for myself -- I just can't stand the Serena grimaces any more -- so I'm dependent on you guys to tell me what's going on!

She's just tight. She'll be fine soon.

OMG, Serena is sucking majorly. She's hitting everything in the middle or bottom of the net. She's not moving or hitting at all. I've never seen her so tight. I think she's just super nervous. What happened to all those beautiful aces? Last year I would have rooted for Jankovic hands down. But her winning guarantees a boring SF. We saw last year how she can't beat Justine, she only chokes or tanks. So please wake up Serena and get those muscles moving. No! Let sleeping Serenas lie! No. I'd rather have a competitive or at least entertaining SF with power. Serena has to win and kill the undead zombie! And anyway, nothing is worse than Maria Sharapova winning a GS. I'd take Serena with the trophy any dat instead of that. Serena is clearly messed up, she's only doing the lame "mute grunt."

Something just has to be bothering Ree. What's with those puffy serves? But, by all means, keep them coming!

"The American is beginning to fire a little better now with a lot of more noise and power although she is still hitting some shocking, uncharacteristic errors" Those commentators are too nice. Serena is not firing at all, lol! That ad is ridiculous! I also hate that Whirpool is a sponsor of women's tennis. I think it's funny they didn't bother to airbrush Serena's arm. But the girls in the background all look lovely, obviously because they're far from the camera or because they're Elena Dementieva. I just watched Rosemary's Baby. So I'm nervous and tense and super paranoid. Serena must have eaten the tannis root! All of them witches, Serena, all of them witches!

Serena dumps an easy volley in the net to lose the first set; JJ laughs.
Maybe she IS injured afterall. I'm not sure.

Someone at wtaworld said "quad".
So now if Serena rallies we're going to have to hear about her superhuman fighting qualities, like last year at Wimbledon. Jank isn't Hant, though; that's one thing.

"ZOMG her quad is dying!@" -- Carillo
"ZOMG she has mental anxiety!!" -- MJF
God forbid...God forbid...God forbid anyone say SHE'S JUST NOT PLAYING THAT WELL. Which is...you know, what it actually is.
But you know she's going to make this into a match, since JJ is batshit insane.

I LIKE them as humans -- V more than S -- but I DON'T root for them.

"The way Williams is serving (under 100mph on the first serve alone) it would appear she has some kind of problem in the abdominal region. But she hasn't called for the trainer"

Uh-oh. I'm sensing that Serena's superhuman fighting qualities must be kicking in. What happened to the alleged bad quad, and the nerves?

Change it there. On the AO home page, you should be able to change/add "favorites." I don't see the Serve speed display thing. It's on the Live Score page But I did find an "EDIT" button to the right of Sharapova's name, and I was able to ban her.
