Seven games in a row - one-way traffic now.

 

[Anil]

It will be Vondrusova vs Sabalenka, looks like…

 

[_Ed_]

Wow, momentum has shifted suddenly now.

 

[_Ed_]

...but Vondrousova got things back under control and gets the win.

 

[Anil]

Yeah that was too deep a hole for Svitolina to get out of...

 

[Anil]

Jabeur can't stop Sabalenka, more's the pity...

So glad to be proven wrong here...

 

[Niall]

Kvitova hammered, Andreescu, Saba and Rybakina all defeated in 3 close sets that's a tough route to a final!

Its not make or break for Ons and Vond is good but this is a golden opportunity for her to get that 1st slam.

 

[Aidan11]

Novak takes the first set 6-3.

 

[Aidan11]

...and wins in three to reach the final once again.

And what a complete douche he was during that brief moment when it looked like Sinner might win the 3rd set. Doubtless he went on to be charm personified when he won the match, but there's something in the old 'triumph and disaster' quote that they display at Wimbledon. Ideally, the crowd at Sunday's final will annoy him by only offering muted applause if he wins the thing again. One can but hope.

 

[Anil]

Oh Niall, the eternal optimist...routine straight setter for the Douche...

@Niall

 

[Silver Silva]

35th Grand Slam final for Djokovic . Insane record

 

[Aidan11]

Alcatraz two sets up against Medvedev.

 

[Anil]

Now the only question remaining is: at what point will Alcaraz start cramping in the final?

 

[CartyDurham]

Really would like to see the baton passed now to Alcaraz

 

[Niall]

obviously the slams are not over but have enjoyed the ladies side much more this year and for so much of last few years been its biggest critic.

 

[_Ed_]

Really enjoyed that first set. Thought Jabeur had it won, but Vondrousova came back strongly.

Hope this one goes the distance.

 

[Niall]

No reason to dislike Vond, but it would be very underwhleming to lose to her after beating, Andreescu, Kvitova , Saba an Rybakina, but Jabeur is a mess atm sadly.

Is it really necessary to interview the poor girl when she's obviously distraught? At least keep it short if they really have to, but the idiot interviewer is just dragging it out for no reason.

 

[Anil]

Sad for Ons, anyway well done Vondrousova!
