and Serena is out of her groove......down 3 - 1 in first set.....

Come on Serena....... Get your groove back. Oooops might have spoken to early...it's now 3 - 2 Just watch and don't get so nervous right?? RIGHT. Who is this Pliskova anyway??? Not real familiar with her.

Serena looks so different then last night not comfortable at all.....wonder if she's spent?? Huge match yesterday, wonder if she's tired from that match?

Come on Serena. I don't understand why she IS playing again tonight after last night, she should have been allowed a day in between matches. JMHO.

Which meant she would have to play QTRS-SEMIS back-to-back. She knew this going in.

Maybe thinking Kerber would know she (Serena) had won (assuming she had) right before she (Kerber) had to play her semi?

At the start of the tournament. I believe she's been battling injuries and such coming in. Who knows.
