And every time we start to doubt, she breaks back...

Sharapova looks really nervous, especially when coming off the baseline.

This just has the feeling of a three setter. Maria is a bit shaky but Genie hasn't put her foot on the gas yet either. But Maria is also more fragile and her serve could meltdown soon.

Could be a massive turning point here. Brutal loss of serve, let's see if Maria turns it up.

Second serve is hurting Genie in this second set. She'll crank it up the third.

The thing that's concerning for me is Maria's serve is an absolute mess and this looks like it's going 3. Not feeling good for Genie. For instance Genie is getting almost 70% of first serves in, Maria only 59%, yet Genie is only winning 60% of her first serve points and Maria is winning 72% of hers.

Genie is a gamer. Can't count her out.

And Genie breaks back in a game that took forever! Thanks be to Sharapova for a couple double faults.

How anyone can like Sharapova and her ridiculous grunts every single effing time she hits the ball is beyond me. What an embarrassment.

How do you even start grunting like that? You think one of her coaches back in the day would tell her to shut the hell up.
And Genie ties it up!

Maria needs to get called on a time violation on her serve. Taking way too long between points.

Bad throw. Repeat.

perhaps I watch too much tennis now (and sports in general) that noise like squeaky basketball shoes, grunting and vuvuzelas don't bother me.

I sure feel differently between watching Genie and Milos play.........you just wait for Milos to eventually give the match away, but Genie you never get the feeling she's out of it, that she'll find a way to win. Down 6-5, I bet she ties it up again.
