I have to say, my hope that Sabalenka would get a bit tired by mid-way through the third if she had to play a few rallies has absolutely not materialized at all. She looks totally fine... maybe even fresher than Leylah. Unfortunately.

Yeah... yeesh. This might be a bit of a mental hurdle. Pretty hard to shrug that off even for her, I'm sure. Just got a bit too amped I guess.

EDIT: Holy crap she might actually get out of it somehow. Still not out of the woods, though...

Yep. And that's really about Sabalenka not getting down after losing those break points. Any questions about her mental game have been answered here, I'd say, along with fitness.

I just tell myself, even if she'd been beaten 6-2 6-2, this would have been a great, amazing tournament. Even if she loses the next 3 games, this will have been an excellent performance against a top-tier opponent playing well. There's no downside, no pressure. She's already done everyone proud no matter what happens.

Just get balls in here. Make her hit the shots under pressure.
