I Back Bacsinszky: Her Time Has Come!

Every match is Serena's to lose. But after Vinci, I am NOT underestimating anyone. And Timea is a finer player than VInci imo.

I dunno if she can win the French, but I'll be pulling for her. And Mugu too I guess. Timea is fun to watch though. Watching highlights of the match with Venus and it seems like she played a smart match.

She certainly has more variety than most. And not afraid to utilise the drop shot - this could at least make Williams run and she is more vulnerable at the net than any where else - if forced to hit up as evidenced in the AO Final.
it may prolong the match but a tall order.
Williams has got it in the bag.

Thread bump time...3R feature night match on RLA vs crowd favorite Gavrilova. Timea had a tough win 1R vs Giorgi but an easier time vs Kovinic in 2R. Both of Gavrilova's matches have been three-setters.

She's losing :(
And I rather dislike Gavrilova. Toooooooooo petulant for my liking.

Timea fights off MPs down 2-5, holds and breaks to 4-5, on serve.

0-40 down and 3MPs.

Gavrilova wins on the first of the three.

Would like to just say how nice she was to fans after her 2nd round win against Kovinic. Signed and took selfies and not only that took the selfies herself with the fans.

That Parisian rain is doing everything it can to sabotage her. She had Mladenovic pulling a Sabine Lisicki, crying during their last game... Here they come now.

I love it. I'm SO glad she won. She had to keep it together 3 frigging times! I'm also glad she's playing Ostapenko in the semi rather than The Woz, poor journeywoman. Jelena's only got one mode -- hit it hard. I think TB ("TB"!!) has a lot more game and will screw-up the big "O" with those mid-court slices that bounce low. That's what I'm hoping.

I came across this yesterday on YT. Cirstea putting Putinseva -- pun intended; StringerTom Effect -- in her place. I love her. She's been playing really well the last couple of weeks, too. Loved the Bacsinszky presser. Thanks.
Your vid didn't load but thanks for your reference. Would like to see Yulia doing this dressed just the same:

If you add a pigtail to the "model" in the video, they'd be identical. Just kidding. The model's obviously more "bustier". ;^)B
