Well well well Ash isn't hitting her spots that well on serve this game and Garcia has 2 break back points to save some face

 

[GeeTee]

Killer instinct Ash. No time for nerves or being kind.

 

[Tripolis]

15-40, - one ace, one unreturnable second serve, one brilliant BH volley stick to the baseline, and one wicked slice drawing a Garcia FH error and Barty holds.

6-0 5-0.

 

[azbang]

Wow i would request a refund what a shit first day 15K level

 

[GeeTee]

13,000+ in the house. No need to hide this crowd from the TV audience.

 

[Tripolis]

Three match points, to seal the double bagel.

 

[Mateo Mathieu]

I'm glad I didn't travel to Perth and watch this :haha:

 

[Tripolis]

Garcia still had time for a hug.

 

[GeeTee]

The crowd would be happy with that display and looking forward to even more of the same tomorrow.

It's Court-like dominance in an important final.

0 and 0 Caro

Ash :hatoff:

6-0 6-0 win over Garcia :spit:

Amazing performance. Very impressive
Great serving, wonderful movement, very smart :worship:
She is the real world #1.

I think Ash will save Australia (again) and win all her 3 rubbers in the final.

Garcia is overrated.

 

[Black_Hawk]

What a win for Ash!! :worship:

Garcia, blown away today. She has to be devastated.

"Probably one of the best Tennis matches I have played in my life" - Ashleigh Barty :cheer:

 

[goat]

Olympic bronze, won Zurich (vs Sharapova), Luxembourg final, undefeated Hopman Cup, won Sydney (vs Stosur), AO QF 9-7 in 3rd vs Davenport in the 9months before she got sick - top ten ranking doesn't sound that inflated.

Well you need points to have an inflated ranking and thats how she achieved it - minus the
Hopman Cup.

 

[Tripolis]

14 games in a row for Barty this weekend

 

[rucolo]

World #1 Barty 3-0 vs Mlad ! :drool:

Barty - Mladenovic

 

[mienshao]

Would they play doubles tomorrow if they split the singles ties today?

 

[GeeTee]

Ash has lost 2 games - NOT A DESERVING #1!!

 

[GeeTee]

Would they play doubles tomorrow if they split the singles ties today?

no

 

[Jorn]

Would they play doubles tomorrow if they split the singles ties today?

Ash and Kiki will play again today, if it will be the deciding doubles...
