She's doing very well!

Won the second set and now broken Serena's serve in the first game of the third set.

Quite impressive 8)

From the noises Serena make when serving, she seems to be having a power-cycle problem.

Hadn't realised Watson was this good!

Long way to go yet though.

Bloody exciting again - Watson serving to go 4-0 up! Who'd have thought it!

Serena has no appetite to compete anymore after winning so many grand slams over the years.

Crikey, what a belter! No dishonour in that defeat, heck of a match. 🙂

choke lands

Gotta say, I think that's outrageously harsh to call that a choke. They both battled that one out to the death.

3-0 up in the 3rd
5-4 up in the 3rd and 1st serve fault

Was inevitable from that service fault

Shame you weren't there to throw the towel in for Heather, save both of them the unnecessary extra three games.

That wasn't choking. She was playing a great player and did exceptionally well. She would probably have beaten most players today.

All said and done Watson isn't quite good enough yet but she seems to be improving. She will learn a lot from today.

No choke - she missed a few shots but went for and got more than she missed.

Have an opinion, by all means, but be aware other people may have theirs, too. Predicting a win for the world number one over the world number 59 wins you zero kudos, and claiming that Heather choked only wins you the prize of wrongness. IMHO, of course. 🙂

Just finished watching it (toddler bedtime induced delays).

I thought Watson played magnificently and Williams showed why she is (possibly) the best player the women's game has ever seen.

You saw Serena was in bits at the end - she was taken to the edge in a way I have not seen before.

Great great tennis...

Serena kicks a$$.

Hopefully Watson keeps improving.
