Reminds me of Elena Dementieva vs Henin at Indian Wells (06?)

Funny enough, Moore is scheduled to play the same opponent, Jessika Ponchet, in the first round of doubles.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

The most dangerous lead

 

[Big_Dangerous]

It's a conspiracy! That match was fixed!

 

[Mainad]

Now THAT'S what I call a comeback!

My advice to Tara though would be to play it safe and not give herself so much fighting back to do in future otherwise she'll tire herself out before season's end!

You can't fix a letcord (turning point of the match)

How did the letcord turn the match?
Don't you just play the point again if the net is touched?
No advantage to either player?

Reminds me of this oldie, but goodie -

Although, I never understood why he would quit on matchpoint up just because Gael Monfils stole his woman: Wouldn't you rather win the match to stick it to them?

Unless he meant netcord winner.

Either way, I was only joking around with my comment about the match being fixed. I don't follow ITF events whatsoever. I guess the comedy is just lost on some people.

It was a winner.

Ponchet got miffed when what should have been a matchpoint ball rather proceeded to clip the net and bounce on the line

Only Jesus can "fix" that.

I actually saved a setpoint against my friend in a similar situation. We were playing a superbreaker and I want to say he was serving to me at 9-8. I just kind of bunted a return back that clipped the tape and bounced over for a netcord winner. Ended up winning the breaker 12-10, but I felt kind of bad because that ball had no business going over the net.

In before death threats.

Seems like a fix to me.

There's only one choker bigger than Jessika Ponchet.

That picture makes me think like he'd play Dr Doofenschmirtz in the live action adaptation of Phineas and Ferb

Reminds me of the 2004 French open with Lisa Raymond.

In the 1R a player called Lubomira Kurhajcová led Raymond 6-0 5-0 and had match points at one stage but lost the match 6-0 5-7 3-6.

She never won a main draw slam match.

6-0 5-*0 30-0 to be precise. Had MP at 6-0 *5-1 40-30. Sad fail.

I love the way tennis is scored on many levels.
On the set level for example, it matters little if you lost 0-6 or 6-7 (24-26), you still lose the set either way.
And the part I love best is that you can even the match by winning the next set no matter what your winning score is.

Andreescu staged a similar comeback a few weeks ago when she lost the first set and was down 1-5 in the second.
She ended up winning the match.

At all lol. This should literally be almost impossible

Us Brits only hear about her when she plays Wimbledon and loses in the 1st or 2nd round and of course this match.

I don't follow British scrubs but just happen to know Tara Moore because she got New York Times attention for being the lesbian wife of the Swiss WTA pro Conny Perrin (the couple are both scrubs but managed to get the attention of NYT for supposedly being the first two active WTA players to be engaged and married.

Or possibly, Touched by an Angell.
