I love the swinging volley. It's one of the most satisfying shots to hit and land to me.

That's the problem. When you hit one, it feels awesome. You feel like a Master of the Universe.
So, you remember the one you made, and forget the ones you didn't.

Muchova was at 24-1 to win the tournament before today's match. I admit I thought about it...

Re: '23 RG Women's Draw & Discussion
I see it the other way. Even Iga will have a tough time beating this version of Sabalenka. Sure she does hit errors too, but is nearly dominant on her own serve.

Re: '23 RG Women's Draw & Discussion
You picked her in 1R for the SP, and it was an impressive pick. Who would have thought it was indeed too early? (Which I can only say because of hindsight). She has been playing very solid tennis, and I do give her a chance in the semis.
Agree. The number of winners in which she is leaving her opponents flat footed is very high. She only needs a very good day, not an excellent day, to beat Iga.
(And Iga to be a little under her standard).

I saw the picture earlier and wondered why Sabalenka went to the net to wait for Svitolina when she knew that wasn't going to happen.Owendonovan wrote: ↑Tue Jun 06, 2023 10:39 pm Sabalenka pulled a total d*ck move at the net with Svitolina.
I'm trying to find video or the photo.
