Yeah, that lucky net shot makes up for the bad missed opportunity on the prior point.

Well she played great that tiebreak. You had those two weird points when Bianca let her off the hook at 4-1and then real lucky with the net at 4-2. If she can handle Sakkari’s first serve rest of the way, it looks good.

Well this is going to be a bit tougher if Bianca is suddenly unable to see.

I’m with you, I can handle these three although I get why some don’t like Shriver. Chrissie is just a train wreck and not exactly a student of the game anymore.

She'll have to use the force even though her opponent looks like Rey.

The way Sakkari plays is terrible in tiebreakers where every point counts Too erratic. You can throw away points here and there and rescue a game, but not in tiebreakerd

My heart was in my throat when she hit that drop volley. Now need to hold though, very important service game.

First time I recall seeing Sakkari play. She seems extremely fit and strong, so hard not to admire that.

I guess. I just really don't like this type of women's game. All power, all the time, nothing else. Not really going for big winners, just trying to knock the opponent over. It's kind of boring. Fortunately it's not as common as it was 10-15 years ago so at least it's not repetitive.
Awful. Just awful. She gets easy put away shots and misses them. Just... dumb. Such a gift to the opponent.

Entertaining to watch if you don’t have a vested interest. For the rest of us, mama mia.

OK Bianca hold your serve now. I didn’t think that would be an issue in this set.
Some huge points in that last game and she was flawless when needed.

This is the best Bianca has played all tourney, in my opinion. The power along with the variety, great to see.

I don't get it.
... anyway, couple good comfy holds for Bianca while making Sakkari's games tough. Hope she can come through here. Good start.

Ah. I see. Because their names are similar. Got it.
Bianca needs this set. She seems to be having trouble with her right foot.

What is up with Bianca's shoes/socks? It's been every match.
