Serious question - does anyone else keep hearing what sounds like the ball hitting the net cord on a serve or am I going insane? I keep expecting a let call and it doesn't come!

Yeah, it’s pretty damn annoying. It’s automatic so I’m thinking it’s picking up the ball but it’s not enough to set it off?

An early break would settle the nerves. Come on Emma.

Right then, repeat of set 1 please Emma.

Strange it isn’t on the radio…although to be fair they are talking about each other more then the tennis so it’s hard to tell.

Good to know I'm not going nuts

1-0, creeping closer!

Nice opening game. Comfortable.

Yup I'm getting that as well. I'm wondering whether it's something to do with the Hawkeye system?

I think its the front foot coming down?

Turn the screw!

First set was brilliant but i think Emma will win this

el_dazza · 11 Sep 2021 at 22:27

Some balls from Fernandez here. Fighting off so many break points.

CaptainRAVE · 11 Sep 2021 at 22:27

Darn.
