Serena has let players take sets who don't deserve to take sets from her, she hasn't been on top of her game. I know she is sick, or so they say but she has pulled out win in 3 sets more than normal in a grandslam. Lucie on the other hand has been solid and very very consistent. All I have is positives from her, she has played some dominant tennis as of late and all of her losses have been close. I feel Serena will be suprised and Safarova will come out smacking those forehand winners and I see her winning french, I also see 1 tiebreak in this match so the over will be pretty much guaranteed.

You know how many players (especially women) have crapped the bed in their 1st final? Lots.

[Snowball]

Serena will vomit on the court and retire down 1-6,0-2
"stomach virus"

[Stokes36]

I think I'd rather go with the +1.5 sets, if I'm going against Serena...

Cuz, 1.Saf is 0-10 vs Serena, 2. The ladies on the WTA seem to consistently wilt in 3rd sets vs Serena...it's utterly ridiculous, and I love me some Serena.

I don't think taking Safarova ML is a smart play at all. I think with this being her first major final, facing the possible GOAT, she COULD get a set...but I just can't really see her winning

[jjgold]

we keep going against Serena and she keeps winning

I agree this chick is no fluke but she loses a lot of games and Serena might be too powerful for her

[Brooklyn Dick]

Serena will expose Safarova's weak second serve. I doubt she can escape a set without at least 2 breaks of serve.

[Snowball]

Safarova is playing her best tennis ever..
she's just started to peak.
I'm not saying she will win but it's not just Serena's mystery illness
that's keeping the line low.
Safarova is a much improved player..
but Serena is probably the best to ever play the game.

[tennis005]

This year she has peaked. Went three sets with serena this year. serena being sick and Lucie moving her around will result in a win... I'm not going big on ML. Small play on it but big on over. I can see a tiebreaker and if serena happens to win in straights that would screw up the +1.5. The over is 22. Serena has sputtered this whole tourney while Lucie had dominated. 7-6 6-4 is winner or 7-6 6-3 is push.. lots of woman win their first title at french. I've seen Lucie play in person, she destroys the ball and can match serena power.

[tennis005]

Also last 3 match ups against serena resulted over 22. Every match Lucie lost this year had a tiebreaker in it or it went 3 sets. We shall see soon enough. I can't wait to watch it.

[Stokes36]

I understand what you're saying, tennis...but by that same token...when Serena is playing from ahead, the women have wilted when the pressure got the toughest. Maybe Safarova is more mentally tough than the others Serena has beat most recently, and I think the over is PROBABLY a better bet of the 2(other being the +1.5 sets)

wow you saw her in person. wow man

[GoBlue77]

Lucie could win 6-4 6-4. I'm torn on this match. Girl has got the tools to put the beast to bed. Mentally tho....

[Darkside Magick]

[715] S.Williams Games Won -5 +145 vs L.Safarova Games Won

[paco]

Safarova isn't on the beast level

[yydouble]

She can't beat that dude

[tennis005]

Well guess serena is over her sickness... took some roids. Let's go lucie..usually if she drops a set she will come back and win next

[paco]

Couldn't hold serve 1st game 2nd set leading 30-0. This is done

[Stokes36]

Welp...looks like the classic #wilting is on the way with Serena ahead...these chicks just lay down vs Serena.

I hope so though, I took Serena 6-0 this set at +3400 when she went down 0:30

[yydouble]

Usually she is playing a woman

[w@lt]

I am so sick of Serena Williams. It's a shame that these talented ladies have to play her, and never have a chance because she just pulverizes the ball like a man.

[Stokes36]

O! Jinxed myself

[yydouble]

She's all roided up and she has no class or humility. Reminds me of Barry Bonds a lot.

[Stokes36]

Steroids? Do tell, do tell

[Darkside Magick]

need another break for the moneyyyyyy

[Darkside Magick]

need another break for the moneyyyyyy

[Steamroller]

He's too strong for Lucie.

[Johnnythunder]

another little girl scared of the big bad black man

[Shafted69]

[tennis005]

Let's go safarova...don't make me liar. Lol come back and cash my money on over

[Darkside Magick]

[jjgold]

serena falling apart

[tennis005]

Serena starting to pout

[Darkside Magick]

[CheeseBoy323]

Had Serena -5.5 for $600 and this dumb gorilla bitch gets broken 2 times in a row. Damn whore

[paco]

Fucken just needed to hold 1 more serve for tiebreak smh
