Serena loses another final.... Put herself under pressure in the very first service game... and never recovered. Could not find a first serve all match long.. Never adjusted. Got to take the power off a bit so you are not always hitting 2nd serve

Another #24 missed. Can't fight back from 1-5 and be broken again. You got to take it to a TB

I'm sick for Ree. Her number one strength, her mind, is failing her, and her second strength, her serve, follows. Back spasms just worsen the matter.

This was such a gift. She was playing well above the field, though Svitolina pointed out that she didn't play very well in their semi despite the scoreline.

If Serena continues to put herself in these positions,
she'll eventually win one of them.

Congrats Bianca!

Now, her career begins. Let's see how she deals with the new pressure to win. She can no longer ask "am I dreaming?" when she wins. She must win.

I know she's happy with her daughter and she should, but that husband ruined her career.

Making excuses and trying to lay blame with anyone other than Serena helps nothing.

She's the one on the court, she's the one chasing history, in a play on Truman,
'The Buck Stops With Serena'!

4 slams finals... gone. No one is playing that many finals these last 8 slams.
Serena is clearly the dominant player.. She just has to find away to finish her runs.
Can't work this hard to get to the final, and Double Fault on break points.
