HOLD!

We will see who is in better shape after almost 2 hours..the almost 40yo Date or Sabine, she just has to win this, anything else would be :help:

Worst performance in the last years from Lisicki :o

She can't win 3 set matches this year. :rolleyes:

she broke back 1-1
and then she held
2-1 for Sabine
maybe she can finally win a 3 set match again

Go Sabine!

sabine broke again
3-1 in 3rd set now :)

Sabine held
4-1

she broke back 1-1
and then she held
2-1 for Sabine
maybe she can finally win a 3 set match again

well, she has to win this, and Date is not a top player, she has more problems to win 3 set matches against top players, in this case she "just" has to play normal to win, that should be enough....

Date held
Sabine still up with break 4-2

:weirdo:
Meine Fresse ist das schlecht :tape:

4-3* :weirdo:

Sabine lost her serve

Date zu 0 zum 4-4 :weirdo:

4-4 0-15 :o

113-117 in total points for Date :haha:

thanks god she won, now it just can get better

Next time a bit easier, please :rolleyes:
At least a good fight in the end and some points for ranking :)
But against Makarova she wont win, if she, especially serves, like this :tape:

a match she had to win... and now things have to get better

Gosh what a struggle Sabine had:eek: She won ugly today,but its a mark of a great player to win,not playing their best. We know she has a great fighting spirit and that helped her today,in spite of so many double faults. Keep battling Sabine:worship:

No pressure on her in the next round,see if she can rise to the occasion:bounce:

LA R2 Lisicki vs. Makarova

Their only match was at quali at Nantes (hard court)
Makarova won 6-0, 5-7, 6-1

Sabine leads 2-1 on serve.

saved 3/3 break points.

time to break!

Sabine breaks at first chance to go up 3-1
Then saves 3 BPs before consolidating the break, up 4-1

Sabine:rocker:

Only 1 DF so far, but first serve percentage is low at 44%

an easy break for Sabine, up 5-1
then another easy hold for Sabine, wins first set 6-1

Sabine looks to be in fine form tonight.

6-1 :bounce::bounce:

Great! :banana:

Big improvement since match with Kimiko

Sabine starts the second set with another routine break to go up 1-0
Sabine so far only has 1 ace. So her dominance must be from her ground strokes.

She follows with routine service game to go up 2-0
Sabine's first serve percentage is now over 50%
And she has saved 6/6 break point chances.

:woohoo:

Go Sabine Go!:bounce:

She leads 4-2

Sabine had chances to gain insurance break but Makarova manages to hold.
Sabine leads 4-3

Makarova jumps to quick 0-40 lead. Can Sabine save 3 more BPs?

answer is sadly no. second set all tied at 4-4

Sabine gains quick love-30 lead, earns a badly needed break on second BP!
Sabine leads 5-4, serving for the match

Game, Set, Match Sabine Lisicki

Sabine also saved 5/5 break points!

Sorana holds. SL leads 2-1

Sabine broken at love. contributes another DF. :mad:

Sorana holds for 5-2 :fiery:

Please wake up Sabine.

I think Sabine may have called for a trainer as changeover is taking really long time. :sad:

Sorana wins first set 6-3

Sabine immediately broken to start the second set.

my suspicion about injury was unfortunately true. :sad:

Slow down and take a deep breath! stop rushing so much.

can't believe Sabine actually choked this away

sabine choking big time , rodionova serving for the match

Sabine :weirdo:

2 pts from losing sabine

bp come on sabine

mp for rodionova

Omg

Poor Sabine

so weak,
winners and ue´s were even equal again at 5-2*, in the end 9 UE´s more than winners!
No shoulder injury to blame for it, only Sabine to blame for it, big big chance wasted, nothing more to say

OMG Sabine injured her ankle while being MP down :tears:

Hope it is not too serious!

:awww: what a fucked up day

I can't believe this, I really can't. :bigcry:

so weak,
winners and ue´s were even equal again at 5-2*, in the end 9 UE´s more than winners!
No shoulder injury to blame for it, only Sabine to blame for it, big big chance wasted, nothing more to say
Come on!
Sabine just suffered a horrific injury and is laid out on court crying. Have some sympathy!

you can criticize her later.

I saw from 5-2 in the last set and though Sabine would win:shrug:
And MP for Rodionova:sobbing:
Sabine:hug:

Leaving court in a wheelchair. :crying2: This looks awful.

This is awful.

:sobbing: This is... oooh nooo

I saw Rodionova-Muhammad at the qualifiers and she was a bitch then. But she didn't even acknowledge the fact that Sabine was injured:o
In Linz, Zvonareva ran to go help Pierce, but Rodionova just stood there and too selfish to realize what was going on:tape:

Rodionova walked towards Sabine, then her evil self took over.
Stopped. turn back to her bench and signed autographs and gave interviews.
All the while, Sabine was crying from the pain. :fiery:

I hope Rodionova gets destroyed in R3:)

Welcome Sabine Fans!
We're in Tokyo and its 2R matchup between Sabine and JJ.
Don't need to tell Sabine that JJ beat her at home tournament and later at Stanford.
Its time for revenge! :fiery:

Live scoring will start shortly after previous match ended quickly due to Caro's retirement.

apparently there has been change in schedule!

Its Dulko/Petrova vs. Chan/Date doubles match in the center court.

SL/JJ match better not been moved to outer court! :fiery:

They are just playing the champions tb there. Sabine and JJ need some more time to prepare. They'll be there after the doubles

Sabine is wearing tall and thick looking socks.
I wonder they are there as protective measure. It sure looks UGLY! :lol:

First game goes to JJ. She looks sharp early.

Sabine holds easily for 1-1

good news for Sabine fans, she has gone back to her natural serving motion! :bounce:

jankovic 2-1

1-2 on serve.
Sabine was crushing JJ's weak serves and had a break point but JJ managed to hold on.

focus Bine !

Sabine equals in games, 2-2* with the ace :worship:

I hate to see one lose today...

2-2
Sabine's serve looks great thus far.
Sabine also looks very determined. I can really sense that she wants to beat JJ today.

00-30 :rolleyes: DF

2-4
very loose game from Sabine. 1 df and 2 ue and she loses at love.

Bine :mad:/JJ :)

break back immediately BINE !!!!

2-5
Sabine had another break point but JJ managed to hold.

Its very obvious what JJ is trying to do. She wants to move Lisicki around take advantage of her lack of mobility.
so far its working. When Sabine has time to strike the ball, she is hitting winners. But when she has to move, momentum quickly shifts to JJ.

double setpoint

3-5
Lisicki saves 3 BP and stays alive in the first set

lost the first set, needs to return better

3-6
Sabine saved 4 set points but eventually succumbs due to too many UE.
She needs to cut down on her UE because JJ is playing a very clean game.

3-6, 1-0
Sabine serves 2 aces to win the opening game of second set.

Its quite noticeable to me that Sabine is not moving very well.
She doesn't seem to be able to make sharp cuts and change direction.
May she is taking it easy on her ankle.

3-6, 1-1
Sabine has to solve JJ's first serve. too many cheap points for JJ off her 1st serve.

3-6, 2-1
Sabine serves couple of service winners to keep the set on serve.

Sabine's gameplan is also quite obvious.
She wants to go for winners early and try to not get into long rallies with JJ.

3-6, 2-1
Sabine serves couple of service winners to keep the set on serve.

Sabine's gameplan is also quite obvious.
She wants to go for winners early and try to not get into long rallies with JJ.
but she's still too hectic if she has got the chance to get onto the winner

3-6, 3-2
Each players with easy holds.
this match is really close, only 1 break of serve...unheard of in WTA these days.

Sabine can't simply be labeled a ball basher because she really loves the drop shots! :hearts:

3-6, 3-4
Sabine gets broken as her backhand deserts her.
Just too many errors :(

Sabine doesn't play well and gives JJ too much of a rhytmn.

3-6, 4-4
Sabine consulted with her father durinjg the break and later breaks JJ on her 3rd BP!
now HOLD!!

3-6, 5-4
Despite 2DF and 1BP against, Sabine fights to hold her serve. :worship:
Now please break :)

pfew she holds, 5-4*

BREAK NOW BINE !!!!

3-6, 6-4
What a fight from Sabine! on her third BP/SP, Sabine triumphs over evil. just kidding :D

wooa, :worship:

KEEP IT UP BIENCHEN !!!!!

3-6, 6-4, 1-0
JJ tries to be more aggressive, going for more winners but it backfires as she commits more UE instead.
Opening game to Lisicki!

Robbed of so many points by the linesmen :(

Come on Sabine.

3-6, 6-4, 1-0
JJ tries to be more aggressive, going for more winners but it backfires as she commits more UE instead.
Opening game to Lisicki!
JJ keeps cool, 1-1*

hoooold SABINE !!!

1-2
double faults killed Sabine. :sad:

bp for the rbrk, use it !!!!!

2-2
Sabine broke right back...now her serve has to hold. no more DF!

2-3
Second straight serve game broken with a DF. :rolleyes:

ugh sabine dfing on both the bps:rolleyes:

looks like its over:sad:

2-5
JJ holds at love, then Sabine broken at love. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Sabine looks tired. mentally and physically.
Her papa is on the court now to give her support but too little too late it seems.

3-6, 6-4, 2-6
another 3rd set collapse from Sabine.
This is starting to become a trend. :mad:

To be honest, JJ is a very bad matchup for Sabine.
Sabine with her lack of speed is at great disadvantage against defensive retriever like JJ.
This is third time they have met this year and all three went to JJ.

I don't ever want to see Sabine vs. JJ again.

:sad:

sabine up 3-2 after being down 0-2:)

4-3

Hercog is tall...and serves pretty hard too. :eek:
