Message: [QUOTE="Yorkeez4, post: 3217260, member: 4434"] Halep was hitting lines and even she ssid it was her best match ever. It is difficult for me to evaluate Serrna’s performance in the grand scheme of things for a multitude of reasons. I believe Serena had played only 4 tournaments prior to Wimbledon. Historically Serena has been able to enter Grand Slams with few prior matches and still win. Because of age that may no longer be true. Was her serve being off and her inability to run the ball down due to lack of tournament play/conditioning or is it age? How many other players could have got as far as she did with so little prep. Any athlete will tell you that wirking out cs playing are totally different. I also believe Halep was about the worse opponent Serena could have met - her game is running down and returning balls and Serena will eventually make an unforced error in long rallys. One also must ask if she feels the pressure of matching Courts record. [/QUOTE]
