Yes, Emma. They have a point to prove. But not against you.
And, if that is the reason they beat you, the solution then is easy. Maybe you should get a point to prove too.

revised SF expectation
Vondrousova versus Krejcikova
Osaka vs Swiatek..
Vondrousova has beaten Sabalenka before, on rass, in fact, and is playing very well - can stand up to power, as she showed against Rybakina. Krejcikova is a Tier 1 player, two-time major champion, also playing well, she should be able to beat Pegula..
On the other side, Osaka is performing very well.. beat Coco as expected. There is a decent chance she can win the whole thing..

Osaka beat Coco as expected? Expected by whom?
I am not saying I am surprised she beat her; Coco is not playing well. But from there to expected there is a bit of road.
Marketa/Aryna. 5-4, 3-2 overall and hard courts for Aryna. Again, any outcome will be reasonable. But with Elena out, I say Aryna will meet her demise in the finals.

I went with Osaka in predictions at least :)

A bit surprised about the Pegula/Krejcikova match. The score was a bit too easy for Jessica. Anybody saw it?

Actually, checking predictions we went 6-4 in favor of Osaka over Gauff.

Krecikova was flat, and didn't have her legs - Pegula played her regular steady level, and won comfortably.

When you win, everybody is a wonder.
it is when you lose that you show who you really are.
She does not take losing easily. Which I gather is one reason why she is so great.

that is more or less what I saw.. I did see the whole match.. and anyway, Krejcikova's backswing is too elaborate for a fast court.. Pegula just didnt give her time, harried and pushed her.. well done!
also, I dont think Krejcikova handles heat well - she had wilted at the AO against Keys a couple years ago..
