Eventhough Angie is playing well. I think it will be errani :sad:

Errani is going to give so many topsin no pace balls that are going to give Angie fits and this match could be exactly like their french open match

I know this is Sara's second favourite surface, but I don't think she will beat Kerber. Something like 6-4 6-2 for the German.

Two of the most in-form players!
Yup. Sara really is so underrated on hard courts but she is playing at a very high level right now.

That said, she isn't quite as good as Angelique on a hard court. Clay is the one surface I would favour Sara to beat Angelique on, but on hard this is a match I do expect Angelique to win.

But it won't be easy. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see this one go three sets and even if it doesn't it could end up one of those 2 setters that still exceeds two hours. This should be a very hard fought contest.

Well, I guess i should be ranting about, being it my two faves of the season.


Kerber is no where near the player she was in the beggining of the year.
she's much less aggressive, explosive and her risks are emotionally based rather than constructive

Sara got used to girls missing so much on tour due to lack of athleticism, fitness or sheer bad technique.

i expect a bad match from two girls who slowly turned thier respective years into "wait for the error" modes, for the larger part.

sara is better at this, emotionally stable, fitter and can play her game all day long.
Kerber can hit winners.

no matter who wins, i'll be bummed, except the "I told you" part, regarding them meeting in the fourth round, after looking at the draw.
they are the most consistent players this year and they didn't let me down.

Kerber has a bigger chance to reach the finals, of course, but if Sara wins, i can celebrate her YEC status, and declare Smashnova could have been top5 today, seeing who her opponents were in her prime years, and the shit the tour is in at the moment in contrast.
