Serena wasn't hitting her forehand like this at all all first set and the start of the second. Now suddenly she's firing them near the paint.

Sam really has to ride this out.

Man, this is the best I have seen Stosur play against a top player. Really has to keep her nerve and find another break here.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Biiig chance here.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

**** yeah

 

[Jono]

BREAKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

Massive

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Reckon this crowd has turned a little bit, too.

 

[Jono]

Surely... surely now

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

ohh damn

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Come on Sammyyyyy.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah baby.

Holy **** - just got home from some shopping and it's all over! Well done to the plucky Aussie...

 

[Jono]

So awesome from Stosur to not be distracted by the Serena tantrum and keep calm. Brilliant win.

 

[Burgey]

Stosur! Wonderful stuff.

Great shot there of the ever gracious Williams clan. Pack of arseholes. Let's see if Serena grants Stosur even the slightest credit. Very out of character if she does.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Awesome performance - particularly in the face of Williams. Had a really easy draw, tbh, but ****ing awesome victory. What a human being!

Watch some of Fed's press conferences mate.

Williams. Had a really easy draw, tbh

Only on paper though I reckon. Petrova played like she turned back the clock, and Kerber was actually hitting awesome.

STOSUR!

Australia!

Serena lost!

 

[Jono]

Just read someone mention this... doesn't Williams have a suspended sentence from 2009 over her head? Two season sentence?

Could she be in trouble?

 

[Jono]

Stosur such a class act.

Get that up ya! /class

Awesome win by Stosur, hate Williams with a passion, didn't realise she was still 6 years old.
