Even though Serena's serve is on fire (those aces!) Kuznetsova wins the 1st set :eek:

:worship:

Serena had ALL THE BREAK opportunities, she didn't get em and thats what she got, a lost 1st set.

CAPITALIZE, she played better than Sveta.

Sveta :yeah: :D :)
keep going ;) :D

Sveta!! From 40-15 to winning the set 6-4!! Well done!! :hearts:

Greeny, even I can get a picture, and as you know, I usually can't see ANYTHING in WindowsMediaPlayer! So it's weird! Well, everything is stopping for me all the time, but at least I can hear the latest score! :D

Fight back Serena.... win win win win win.....

:bounce: ;) :bounce:

:o..............................@ u

yeah i mean she played great, but she didnt take her opportunities, and lord knows she had a bunch of them.

Serena just absolutely smashed her racket to smitherines when she went to the chair after the first set... it was folded in half...

serena 30-0*

fight back now!!! :mad:

3 bp Serena :banana:

take one!!!

Serena be patient and u'll win point per point per point....

Serena *1-0 :bounce:

Sveta 0:1

All the pressure, all the break points; Serena Williams loses her serve as KUZNETSOVA wins her FIRST BREAK POINT, which happens to be SET POINT for a 6-4 FIRST SET! Serena promptly smashes her racket to pieces, earning a code violation! :devil: :devil:

Serena just absolutely smashed her racket to smitherines when she went to the chair after the first set... it was folded in half...
Yeah she didn't look happy at all!

Also looked like she was questioning the fact that her shot was called out (cause she had her hand up to the umpire when walking past like she was just dissing her)...although her shot did look clearly out to me.

Sveta sorta looked at the line as if to say, "what's she talking about" sorta thing...

well, that's what i took it all as anyway...

:o..............................@ u

:kiss: :hearts: :kiss: ;)

serena just broke sveta
1-0

Serena breaks!! :bounce:

Come on, Serena :bounce:

Seems like it will be 3 sets! Even if I wanna Sveta to win, watching 3 sets will be great! :D

Do you think Sveta cares about her hair at this moment????

Sveta :D 1-1

Sveta!! From 40-15 to winning the set 6-4!! Well done!! :hearts:

Greeny, even I can get a picture, and as you know, I usually can't see ANYTHING in WindowsMediaPlayer! So it's weird! Well, everything is stopping for me all the time, but at least I can hear the latest score! :D
