Hey Tennis Friends!
“Semifinal Day” is here at the Texas Tennis Open!
As I have been telling you, the finals are on Friday. Matches start at 7PM, so, make your plans to join me!
The final scores for the matches I featured are:
Roberta Vinci d. Bojana Jovanovski 6-0, 6-0
I think that Roberta nailed it on the head when she said that Bojana ” . . . didn’t play so well”. The match only lasted 53 minutes, and I was hard pressed to find any winning highlights from Jovanovski for the parts of the match that I was able to shoot.
I’m always surprised at the details that the players remember. When I mentioned last year’s match between these two, Roberta remembered that she was down in the second set, but came back to bring it to a third set win. That was 69 matches and tons of international travel ago! I can’t even remember my last league match and, as you know, I video them on my own website!
Liga Dekmeijere / Irina Falconi
d. Eugenie Bouchard / Aleksandra Wozniak 6-0, 4-6, [10-8]
An unbelievable see-saw match! Bouchard/Wozniak were up 3-0 in the second set, when Dekmeijere/Falconi came back to tie it up, and battle it out, then lose it. Then, in the third set tiebreak, Bouchard/Wozniak were up 5-0, and Dekmeijere/Falconi battled back, I believe, with the next six points in a row, getting up 6-5. At 9-6, Dekmeijere/Falconi, . . . Bouchard/Wozniak saved two match points before being eliminated.
