This is where she needs to calm down and not let the entire match slip away. This is her big weakness now, losing focus.

Reminds me a lot of the Radwanska match at Aussie this year, up a break in the first set (I think the score was the exact same too, 4-1), then lost 8 or 9 games in a row and that was that. She was a much better fighter a couple years ago, just doesn't have the belief she once had.

Did not take advantage of 3 break points.

Then, double faults.

Seems to be between her ears.

Pretty obvious she was going to get broken right away after blowing those break chances. Really can't believe that Wimbledon loss and Montreal disaster has totally broken her mentally, but it appears she's not ever going to recover from that sadly.

Phelps was third in his heat. Makes the semis though.

She doesn't even need to spend any more time on the practice courts. Get in that sports psychologist's office and don't leave until he gets you right.

The other thing that's been annoying from Genie the last two years is we usually see her best fight once the match reaches the beyond salvation point. She fought damn hard that last game, too bad it's almost certainly meaningless.

Rowing, swimming and volleyball are the sports I have enjoyed watching the most so far.
