Didn't allow a break point. Serve must be kicking.
Usually, the serve loses steam towards the middle of the 2nd set. And that's when she starts struggling. I hope the coach is aware and is working on it.

We talked about her here about 3, 4 years ago. We were saying she'd be top-100 by now.

YES, the famous Mayor of the poorest Skan district: RU90 He was a fan of Lottner. I was saying Witthoeft was the better of the 2 young Germans. Time flies.

Lottner already played a 2-set match 1 hour before this one because of the rain yesterday.
So it was kind of unfair she was playing her 4th set of the day.
But, well, that happens sometimes. Sorry lady.

and Congratulation to lady Kuzmova !!!!!

Next, Flipkens. That is not gonna be pretty. Flipkens and her slices are annoying.

#ed_op#i#ed_cl#Indeed....most unfortunate for Antonia today and, yes, Flip' will be a problem with her slices "and" droppers. Yet, I'm expecting Vikotria to prevail, nevertheless, and face Coco in the final, two power hitters with Viktoria prevailing, if it happens. If she does win it all, she's top-50 (48th)....#ed_op#/i#ed_cl#
