Day 8....Wimby
5-2... but no more BP since 3-0... pretty even in those last 4 games. Venus could do more with the second serve from Aljona. And Jelena's returns are not that far out; if those two had clipped the line, it would have been a rebreak-opportunity "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it"
As long as Venus is serving well, Ostapenko has no chance. That's what I said yesterday. Ostapenko's return position leaves the "T" wide open for Venus to blast aces and service winners. If Venus starts missing first serves and DFting... then Ostapenko will take over. Last edited by Ace2Ace on Jul Tue 11, 2017 9:17 am, edited 1 time in total.

Already JO is playing better in the 2nd. Vee is now playing catch up in this set, whereas it was JO who had to do so in the first.
