Queen Vee Arrgh, Verdasco and Almagro will never get off the court. If/when Eurosport switches to Venus vs Szavay, Venus will instantly mount a heroic comeback.

Curse of the love set? Maybe.
Errrrrr...Nando, you're hot, but I've watched you all spring, and I kind of want to see the girls, please.
Or...or you'll go to the TB. Oooooookay.

Ha, I know right...BBC doing the same thing. Verdasco so passive and useless on those MPs! He was lucky that Fathead donated some stupid errors at the end. OK. Non-Szucking Szavay now. Let's go.

3-3, Szavay szerving, dumb errors and heavy breathing. Playbook!

DF then FH halfway up the net to concede the break

It's not as if Venus has got it together particularly.

Venus hands break back on a DF of her own

Yes but you still have to wonder if Szavay has what it takes to close this. I do like her game face right now.

Thing is, Venus hasn't heard of the playbook. She is different to other top players because, when players choke against her, she can still lose. She did very well against Safarova but it doesn't mean this has changed.

The easier the shot Venus has to hit, the further out she will hit it. That FH was dreadful!!!

Great rally from Szavay...two points away...

I saw Anges toss the playbook into the trash on her way out!!! (Svedova ran out and picked it up, though)

Awesome! What an awkward match point rally, though - Szavay closing in on the net, backed off tentatively and let Venus start dominating, then Venus dumped a BH into the net for no reason.

Sorry guys but lolol at your tennis expertise. Since when is Venus a shoo-in to win ANY match at Roland Garros, let alone against a rock-solid (if she's not slumping) player like Szavay?

Szavay-Cibulkova for the QF! Now we need Sharapova out ASAP and that quarter will become an amazing clusterfuck.

Inexplicable Venus FH into net, MP!! Venus has struggled with short low returns for years and years. Excellent return and MP Agnes.

Just an assumption based on the almost limitless tendency of other players to choke against the top dogs. Not to mention, when you really, really want some result, you assume you won't get it!
