No thread?? 2016 RG R2: serena def teliana 6-2 6-1

Teliana had no chance but fought until the last moment, took Serena to deuce even at 1-5 in the last set. More fight than many "big names".


Handshake :worship:

RG R2: (1) Serena def Pereira 62 61

Steamrolled.

Teliana had absolutely nothing to hurt Serena with. Nothing. But what she has is fight and she deserves a lot of credit for her performance despite winning only 3 games. Other players would have folded like a cheap tent when they saw how well Serena started but Teliana didn't.

Serena was just too good on the day, 31 winners to just 15 unforced errors and was hitting many of her shots with depth and precision. This is the Serena I love to see --- cool, calm and collected and getting pissed at herself with every error she made -- shows that she cares alot and is extremely focused. Judging from her performances in her first two rounds nobody is going to stop her from winning RG yet again if she keeps this up and continues to improve.

Junk ball Serena to death on this surface would be the best way to defeat her, still won't be easy.

Her path to 22 looks good with this form she's in. Just keep it for a few more matches!

Great match for Serena to get some rhythm. That first match was so crazy and didn't really go many rallies. Serena had some nice defense and ball striking in this match, got into a rhythm and put away this annoying grunt girl. I mean I get grunting on the normal shots but this heifa was doing the full, extended grunt carving drop shots. What the entire hell?

Serena played well.

Teliana tried her best.
