	When I looked at Samantha Stosur's profile, I realized that she was from Australia.

Wow! A 3-set US Open final!

I think Serena gets confused and disturbed the rare times she faces a player who's not totally cowed to be facing GOAT Serena. And Azza's not cowed.

So what happens next?

Now I'm rooting for Azza to keep this up ...

Yes, Miss Landers.
