Ai broken again :?

But what a shot by Daniela at 15-30!
wouldn't that have gone out by Serena anyway? The ball hit the net, didn't it? :?

It was an overhand so I'm pretty sure it bounced. I'll check it on my Tivo during the next break.

Edit: Yes, it bounced in play.

Hantuchova and Sugiyama have the technique to equal or even to be superior to the Williams sisters but they have the lack of power !
If Serena and Venus have service games like this one at 4-3 it's going to be really , really hard to Hantuyama to break them and consequently to win .

Danka makes an UE to give venus a chance to serve the set out :(
1st set to the WS... Hantuyamas only chance is to win at the net. Come on girls!

Danka's serve is really good tonight, just enough to keep the WS in line. But Ai's :? 1-0
Danm... 3bps and nothing. Please dont get broken now, Ai :oops:

All we know how is the service of the Williams sisters .. When you have 3 BP and can't convert any of them , it's going to be though to win the game !
honestly , i can't see Hantuyama winning this .. Ai's service game is just too weak , and like I said before , they have lack of power !
Hope I'm wrong !

Oh... Ai broken again. Theyre playing really good, but not enough to put WS's power in hold.
Well, easy break, hope Hantuyama takes advantage of that. 2-2

Daniela has been more "nr6" than Ai Sugiyama during the WHOLE tournament !
Thank God , they broke .. and to love . and got broken , to love !
this is being a lot less thrilling than the QF match .

I don't think that Daniela is very happy with all those balls in the direction of her body and Serena don't even apologize .
When the WS step up a gear , it's impossible for Hantuyama to react .

Well, dont think serena is looking for danka, she's just smashing the ball away. Please daniela hold to at least have a 6-4 second set :P

wow... over very quickly. WS's power is just too much. To even have a chance the other team would have to make nearly no miskates... But oh well, really nice effort Hantuyama :)
