Aryna in 3. But only at 55% chance.

[ashkor87]

Sabalenka will win. 70% ..Coco will get a lot of balls back and make her win every point twice
.but she has the mental fortitude nowadays to handle that.

[ashkor87]

Coco still tends to pop the ball short on the forehand, Muchova didn't go after it the way one should, Sabalenka will.

[ashkor87]

I have never been able to project number of sets..some straight sets matches are close, closer than those that go the distance..I think one factor is how well the players serve. If neither holds serve easily, a small advantage, applied consistently, can give 6-0 set or a straight sets result. If the servers are good, the set could be decided by a small incident, net cord, a lucky shot..so it could get
More random, with wild swings in sets won. Again, if the court is fast, it is easier to hold serve, so even an inferior player can win a set by luck.

[ashkor87]

Bopanna ..!

[ponchi101]

It was, after all, once called "The Sport of Gentlemen".

Due to the Disney/Spectrum dispute I've been watching the US Open by livestreaming Australian TV station 9NOW. A little before the match, Dokic and another Australian commemtator showed a video clip of Coco when she was 8 years old dancing in the stands at the US Open (2012?). As she was dancing she made a telephone gesture just like Ben Shelton's. Dokic even commented on it. Was that a dance move back then?

[ashkor87]

Saba missing out on punishing some short balls but is still ahead 5-2

[Fastbackss]

It hasn't been great to watch.

Sabalenka clearly in charge despite of all her errors. (I think she had a service game where every lost point was a UFE)

[ponchi101]

Not anymore.
Aryna will deliver her usual amount of UE's. She is in that stage at the moment.

Just saw Monica Seles and Tracy Austin. Monica was talking away. Tracy seemed to be watching the match. Nice of them to show tennis celebrities.

[ponchi101]

Sabalenka's FH is right now the worst stroke in the tour. She simply cannot keep it in (I mean today).

[ti-amie]

Brad Gilbert is dying right now.
