[Alizé Molik]

a yummy BAGEL for schiavone!

[Pax]

6-0

Fran is playing well, but Alizé is playing better.

[Alizé Molik]

6-0 1-0 she just yelled COME ON!

[HowardH]

Looks like Fran is ready to put up a fight in this set though. 1-1.

[Alizé Molik]

Fran's volleys are SO UGLY but effective right now. Alizé had her first yell for the match.

Everything was going too good to be true. Bye-bye second set

[HowardH]

What happened in the third?

[améliemomo]

soooooooo close alize but in the same time the match was sooooo far to be won cause schiavone is a hell of a fighter
alize played some great tennis in the first,schiavone was annoyed about her game. Then second set, the italian started to fight more and be agressive coming to the net.
She was 4-1, alize looked tired and passive. Then she woke up and fought back to make it 4-4 and then 5-4;
This service game from schiavone was so nasty but amazingly well played
the only regret for alize is that game at 5-5 she was leading 40-15 to finally get broken.
Since then she wasnt the same anymore and schiavone cruising to the victory.

Alize must be sad right now but she s not the first player losing to schiavone, (azarenka,henin and even my amélie
she can improve in the next weeks, probably gonna play fed cup against USA.

alize had it done with 60 54....but francesca could win nine consecutive games and it was 60 57 06
