  1. Well, I’d say Serena’s just fine. But her movement hasn’t been tested. And not sure it will. It’s a serving contest so far.
    Wow. Serena – punishing her 2nd serve and applying the tourniquet/pressure. Garbine saves one bp with an ace. And has adIN, she’s gotta hold. I get the feeling. But doesn’t yet. 2nd serve liability for Garbine…
    She holds !! that was huge.

  2. and now serena pretty much gives away her service…how often does that happen after failing to capitalise on break points

  3. 4-2. Big hold to consolidate the break, amy!
    Don’t know who you are cheering, but I seem to be for Garbine so far — tho I don’t care who wins…want a good match!

    • Serena should be made to work for her GS’s . I’ll be bummed if it’s straight sets.
      Not sure about Garbine’s tenacity. Kerber or Azarenka, even Kuznetsova give Serena a good test.

      Guess this is a bit of revenge for Serena too, since Garbine beat her here a couple years ago.

  4. Golly Serena beating up on that 2nd serve. Garbine has to work that out! Massive Hold, Garbine. 5-5. I’m likin’ it

  5. another break for garbine with some huge hitting! serena should think again about these dodgy drop shots…
    garbine has been mainlining the dtl off both wings…

    • 2 bp’s saved. Will she pull it off and survive? Garby hang on…
      ahhaaaaaaa I don’t think so! But it’s set point, and she makes it!

      Okay, let’s go Serena!

  6. garbine takes the set! bet serena would like the first of those 2 break points back…
    garbine definitely believes she can win..

  7. 7 DF’s so far for Garbs? Thinking she actually needs that shriek vs Serena tho it’s a bit like Maria’s.

    • She broke back! Garbine did. Love the pics of her mom. It’s a good backstory, Garbine’s is. And she holds. 3-1. She can be a tougher customer than I gave her credit.

  8. looks like serena is letting this slip away from her….she was playing better in the first set..doesn’t look like she is really in this now…

  9. Muguruza was playing so much better heading into final I had a feeling this might happen. Not over yet but I’m hoping Garbine will win this. Would be awesome to see her win her first GS.

    • i also thought before the match that garbine would win…but serena came out very strong in the beginning…she’s not playing nearly so well since then

      • GM, trying to nickname Garbine Muguruza, I need some help! GM is making it difficult for Serena — she wasn’t going to be intimidated in the first set. Very proud of her for it too.
        Serena keeping it to one break to Garbine this set.
        4-3 GM
