Seriously. It was obvious from her reactions - she misses easy shots she normally hits and then tries hard to show that it "hurts", that she really cared about the shot. Her acting was too obvious.

Plus in that lsat game at 30-all. She totally overpowered the last two shots. She normally never plays like that. She plays hard but those two shots she hit totally 100% power, the first landed barely in, the second was out (and then again her reaction - "I have to put on more top spin" )

Im not her fan but this was just too obvious.

Whatever her reasons are (probably not overplay and just go on to win US Open)

 

[Matteo]

^^ Indeed. And really too much obvious despite she tries so hard to ''be real''.

 

[Matteo]

And Angelique was playing worse than most matches this year....

 

[HG2020]

Please stop with the excuses. Serena can't win EVERYTHING! She is human. She loses just like everyone else.

 

[NadalSharapova]

didn't lose on purpose but didn't try and didn't care

didn't lose on purpose but didn't try and didn't care

For once, I agree.

 

[TIEFSEE]

She looks pretty tired this week so it's normal for her not to give 100/80% :shrug:
Maybe she doesn't want to peak too soon (like the clay season this year)

 

[supermod]

I doubt that she lost on purpose.

She just played bad.

After winning so many titles this year, she can't be focused 100% in every match.

 

[treufreund]

She is shady enough to do something so unprofessional but I'm thinking she is tired. It was weird how insanely bratty she was acting about a 1/4 final match given all of her recent accolades. On the other hand she is known as a bratty drama queen

Your jealous of the Queen

 

[poulao]

No.

 

[TheHangover]

and why she should have done that?

 

[Saori Kimura Fan]

No. Never. Serena plays on pure instinct. If she stopped playing this way, it would be over.

She either tired, injured, or perhaps Kerber play better?

[sweetadri06]

She didn't lose on purpose, she hasn't been playing well all week, it was going to take a half-way decent opponent(kerber) to beat her.

I miss you Justine fans dumping on the top seeded American. Too bad Henin couldn't win Wimbledon, though.

 

[Destiny]

No

She just lost end of
