Lisicki in 3 sets. She is confident on this surface, and she can win more free points on her serve.

Halep in 3. Sabine is too erratic and served 20 DF's today. Even if Sabine serves better, Simona will still force her into errors.

Kiu, I am reversing your jinx by voting Sabine in two sets :D
You will not win this. I know you ;)

P.S. where is the Masha v mini Masha poll? opsss... its Angie :laydownlaughing

I have no idea who will win the Simo match. Seriously. Sabine has the tools to beat her on grass.

Please do not put my name with jinx in the same sentence all the time.
I am free to pick who I like.
You may "Jinx" Simo if you keep this up.

Agreed, but it makes no sense. You didnt think Simona can keep her 4th rankings, and you dont rate her and you dont think she can win Wimby or Paris, BUT yet you think she will beat a grass expert like Lisicki in 2 sets? It doesnt make any sense to me.
Thats why I thought its a kind of a wodoo fun for you. :)
I see that you are serious and you think she will get to the Semis. Thats almost a final you know,;) but you still dont think she can win Wimby... :rolleyes: whatever :D
I will stop blaming you for doing a fun jinx from now on. I see that you are serious. Sorry

It makes no sense that you are happier from a Masha loss than Simo win but that's the way it seems.
You should be applauding my vote but instead you voted Sabine.
Makes sense?

Think everyone banking on Lisicki missed today's match. She served 20 double faults not 'cos she's crap, but because of a sore shoulder. That has to have an impact with her next match already tomorrow.

1) I am happy for Simona for the last 3 years. Is that ok with you? :)
2) Simona had an easy win today, nothing special. On other hand I see someone who for months is using mind games to disturb her opponents. I think its illegal. I am happy this player failed today. Its very sensible of me and I am happy with my behaviour.
3) My vote is for fun, anyone can see that except you. Am I on drugs to vote against the player I support? ;)

Nevermind, lets leave it for now. :)

I like both so will be happy either way. Both nice, pleasant young ladies and can't think of anything negative about either. Wonder how much Lisicki's shoulder will prove to be an issue though. 20 double faults today was not pretty. A miracle to win serving like that!

Normally true re Lisicki's serve but see her serve today 'cos of her shoulder?! Hopefully it'll be better tomorrow otherwise it'll be a tough one to win.

Hopefully Lisicki shoulder improves for this match up,it does give her many free points on her serve,if she can play first strike tennis,to me she will be fine,she cant afford to get into too many long rallies with Halep,that could be her undoing.Lisicki cant afford to give Halep any rhythm in the match.

To me the first set will be crucial.Lisicki has the power to blow Halep off the court.

Lisicki in 3 sets.

Lisicki still has a better grass court game, and I think she wins in 3.

COMN SIMO ! Make my day and make other 22 milion people happy! :) :angel:

Why did they had to put the two women matches in same time? :( people who want to watch women tennis should be allowed to watch both matches and same about the men. I know its a 3 hours gap, but its nothing big and its worth it for the millions watching on tv. Its stupid.

Its ok to lose even on bagels but to not even try its real bad. :blush: very disappointing until now :(
her worst level in Wimby so far. It will soon be over if she doesnt wake up and starts playing for real.
