We all know the real reason Serena lost this match

Bud Collins predicted her winning it:eek:.

To be fair, who didn't predict Serena to win this?

I did not predict it at all. I will admit that I felt serena was the favorite by a slight margin but let's be real. This is a slower hard court against jelena who is a great retriever and baseliner. That is NEVER an EASY match for serena. Jelena is not going to spray ball like Nicole Vaidisova did.

But a Bud Collins endorsement is the kiss of death in most cases :lol:

Didn't he also pick Fed to not win? If so, congrats Roger AO Champ 08!

Poor footwork?

I sure has hell didn't see this coming, not with the way both players have been palying throughout the tournament. I am still numb.
