Hold your nerve, girl

Think it's more a matter of if Serena regaining hers or not.

 

[Alan]

Well it obviously is, or Ivo Karlovic would win every Grand Slam for the next five years.

*woosh*

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Saved the break points. Come fucking on, you can do this

 

[Alan]

This Watson girl is impressive.

 

[Nando]

No friends in Wimbledon for Serena, it seems. Crowd loving it.

You're damn right there. Can't stand anu of the family.

 

[Alan]

Venus is alright, Serena is a twat of the highest caliber.

The Amazonian man-beast breaks back

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Back on serve. Fucking hell. What a game though

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

3 aces in a row from Serena...

 

[Nando]

That serve makes all the difference in the women's game. Obscene!

 

[Alan]

Yikes. Talk about dropping a hammer.

 

[Alan]

Think Watson may just about be worn out.

 

[Kenny]

Painfully unlucky!!

 

[Nando]

Gutting.

Wonderful performance.

 

[darlowolf64]

I was wondering if the women had challenges but it's all in vein. Really great effort by Watson...Such a shame the Williams stepped up the heat and she ran out of gas

 

[darlowolf64]

And classy to the end, Williams won't sign any autographs

 

[Alan]

Great effort from Watson, but Serena needs so little time to completely suffocate a rally.

Nice of her to sign some autographs. :facepalm:

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Lack of big match experience cost Heather there I think. That's the kind of game Murray failed to close out in his early career and these days he just cruises to a win.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It was a great performance by Watson. She has the ability to get further up the rankings so this sort of match is in the second week of a slam. A truly tremendous game of tennis and Serena somehow found the way to get over the line.

 

[Alan]

Looked to me like Watson just lost a little control at the end; sliced a couple of "easy" shots that could have had us still watching if she had hit them.
