3rd September 2015

Hello sports fans! Thought I'd have another dabble for the US Open.

Only got around £40 in my account so we will see where we'll get!

Andrea Petkovic v Elena Vesnina

Andrea Petkovic

Petkovic won the 1st set 6-3 but was broken in the 1st game of the 2nd set. She broke straight back for 1*-1 when I get on at a slightly skinny 1.08.

And Petkovic broken again for 1-2*. Not a single BP against her 1st set and now loses her 1st two service games of the 2nd set.

Vesnina saves a BP to hold for 1*-3.

FFS Broken to 30 again!!! 1-4* Vesnina with the double break. Looks like we're going to a 3rd set.

Petkovic gets a break back. Still trailing 2*-4.

Andrea has remembered how to serve! Holds to love. 3-4* Bit of pressure on the Vesnina serve now.
Nope instead it's a love hold for 3*-5. Petkovic serving to stay in the set.

Ok Petkovic holds for 4-5* Now let's level this set please.

15-30... 15-40 C'mon 2 BP's BREAK!!! 5*-5 Now hold.

Holds to 30. 6-5* Now time to wrap this up Andrea. 15-30 Oi Oi... 30-30... 40-30... Holds!! 6-6

Tiebreak time.
0-1** FFS here we go!
1-1* MB back. Another? Double Fault! Ouch!
2**-1 C'mon hold them both.
3*-1 Grrrr wide!
3-2** 2nd serve get on it! Long Challenge by Vesnina... To be fair Petkovic reacted as though it was in. Plum on the line! Replay the point. 2nd serve again, never really understand why they go back to 1st serve, they should have a successful challenge as a let rather than replay the whole point. Pffft!
3-3* Andrea needs this next point I think.
4**-3 Well done now hold both please... Nice point.
5*-3 Fair play to Vesnina good point too.
5-4** Fantastic Petkovic! WTF Challenge??? How late? Call Stands!!
6-4*
