[Other Sport] Emma in the final - official thread

[Bodian]

Great Sat night entertainment this. What a match it's been so far.

I won't be switching over to MoTD yet.

Emma’s confidence and focus is really quite something.

Well would you believe it. Women can hit a tennis ball hard without any ridiculous screaming or grunting.

So true

Ok. Let’s get this Fernandez serve under pressure again.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Great start to second set. Crowd has gone quiet

 

[jcdenton08]

Come on Emma!!!

To be fair, this has got worse in the men's game recently too. But yeah, it has been almost as refreshing as the story behind the finalists themselves.

This is a really good match, great comeback by Fernandez on this game

 

[KZNSeagull]

Damn. Now they have got noisy again!

 

[Razzoo]

I feel for Emma not having her parents there, yet it really hasn't seemed to faze her.

 

[Washie]

Both of them are still teenagers, seeing the new generation of tennis players, and really helping bring eyes to women's tennis.

Emma is losing to many break points, she's won 2 lost 11. Playing beautifully, great to get herself into those poitions but have to convert those break points to keep the crowd shut up!

Either one of those 2 in the last game..... and now the pendulum has swung again to Fernandez

 

[KZNSeagull]

Ooh, now they are extremely noisy 1-2.

Come on Emma, break straight back

 

[Frutos]

Fernandez breaks in the second set.

 

[Poojah]

A break down but that doesn’t massively concern me. She’s been here before in this tournament and dealt with it. Every confidence she’ll do it again.

 

[Your Mum]

Go **** your

mum.

 

[KZNSeagull]

And she has! Boom 2-2

 

[Frutos]

Raducanu breaks straight back!

This is a superb match.

 

[maffew]

Come on Emma, break straight back

 

[Frutos]

However this one goes, I suspect this will be the first of many Grand Slam finals for both of these players.
