Has Lisicki gone to cry in the bathroom or what, because she assuredly does not to actually use it already.

I don't think Lisicki is very good, but she can certainly play better than this. It's not over, especially if Marion keeps throwing in these doubles.

Such a stupid play from Lisicki on break points (apart from the last one), if you're struggling, keep the ball in play, don't go for winners from impossible positions.

Fantastic point!
LOL it was out, and Sabine didn't challenge! And now she'll lose, haha.

Loved how Cake battled to save the BPs - and then that rally where she had to play a single-handed FH and ended with THAT DTL winner!

This is playing just like Schiavone-Stosur, the veteran maintaining her form (with lots of DFs though) and the giantkilling newbie freaking out.

Stosur didn't really freak out in that match though. Didn't bring her A game but she played at a solid B+ level, not a Demented/Safina-style collapse.

Oh my goddddd that Lisicki toss and second serve.

Post by Wagasi on Jul 6, 2013 9:09:41 GMT -5
You are correct, I forgot about that. This is a Safina style collapse.

Lisicki is going to start crying on court soon if things don't change quickly. She already does. Not gonna lie, I'd cry too, but first I'd actually start catching those tosses that go awry, not trying to hit 2nd serves out of them.

I don't think Lisicki collapsed right from the start. She couldn't find her best game right away while Bartoli did, and then she started panicking.

Lisicki actually crying now.

This is exactly what I fervently hoped would NOT HAPPEN. Don't go beating Serena and then act like a trembling junior in the final!

Post by Lady on Jul 6, 2013 9:12:29 GMT -5
I've seen several long games in this match, they always end in Bartoli's favour.

Bartoli tried to let her off the hook with that missed putaway on BP, but Lisicki is having none of it.

This isn't Stosur/Schiavone, this is Myskina/Dementieva.

So, I hear Sabine has spent more time in the bathroom than on the court? Poor soul.

Marion actually lost a rally where she did nothing but pound Lisicki's backhand ...
