Jess was up a break at 3-2 in the second and had a chance to break back at 3-5 when she was 40-0 up on Arina's serve so it was closer than it looked.
Watching Barty v. Bobusic, first time I've seen Bojana play and quite impressed with her game. Nothing flashy, no big wepons but a nice solid game, deep shots and knows how to work a point. I think Ash will be too much for her in the end but nice to see her holding her own so far.
I heart Bojana and her twig arms so much. I love the depth she gets and her fight despite not having a big game or being a powerful girl. She seems to be doing ok against a more fancied opponent so far.
btw, is the umpire mic broken? She's hollering the score out :lol: She's gonna have a sore throat by the end of the match.

@_Hindrance_ I had some issues with my health, so I need time to get ready for Aus open and all 2013 season.
I think the reason why Viki is struggling atm is because she is playing a totally different person. Monique htis with topspin and slice and has a one hander. Lizette has really flat ground strokes that just manage to go over the net :shrug:
I was under the impression that Nastya isn't necessarily disliked off-court. It's just her on-court persona that puts people off.
Can't believe Boj took out Barty I missed the last two sets. Surely she's a chance to take out the WC now, if she's returning to her 2011 form, she can beat everyone left in the draw
Yeah Viki isn't looking very impressive today. Although she looks stronger and fitter than I remember her being.
I just have to say again, I love this livestream. It's really well put together and the numerous off-court interviews are great. I love seeing these players who we rarely get a chance to watch. It's a real treat. I know TA gets bagged out a lot, but this is one thing that they totally deserve props for
