Thankfully nothing found. Would be interested in which AV the library runs.

 

Often, the viruses come from the advertisier, not the stream itself; if you randomly get a different advertiser, one of you can get an infected stream and one not. Of course, running adblock helps as it stops the request to the ad agency before it gets redirected to the source site of the advert.

However it now goes, Laura can be proud of some really gutsy and at times really quality play during the last few games of the 2nd set.  Really showed folk what she can do.

Saving 9 MPs against Sam Stosur at the US Open didn't save her in the end, losing that match.  But saving these 5 MPs today could lead to a better ending.  Please !

great fight back.

btw is this heat policy on on the WTA tour? at what temp does it kick in?

 Only info I've found is that the temperature must be 35c or more, and the 'Heat Stress Level' must be 28 or more. But I can't find a definition of heat stress level. It's based on temperature, humidity and whether they are in direct sunlight or not.

Cancel that - from the WTA rule book: Extreme Weather Conditions shall be defined as when the Heat Stress Index (Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) Index) meets or exceeds 30.1 degrees Celsius/86.2 degrees Fahrenheit.

WBGT is dependent on temperature, humidity, direct sunlight and wind speed.

Got a few more first serves in there, but Hsieh is fully alive now and breaks, not helped by bad shot selection a couple of times from Laura when she should have won points, but put it back on Hsieh's racquet.  Hsieh better in that respect in that she holds shots back when she has a good opportunity and puts it the other way.

3 - 4 *

Not long to go now - I'm feeling excited rather than nervous about the final right now as whatever happens, Laura has already had a great tournament. I hope Laura enjoys the experience, and wins of course!

I'm trying to remember the last time I watched something new on TV that wasn't in wide screen. These black bars down the side look odd!

Hmmm - black bars or fat Laura - decisions, decisions...

I always refer to this vey useful official WTA document

The commentators reviewing the player's recent matches obviously haven't.

Although they have just told us Anne will be continuing next year but Bally is undecided.

2*-1 and she's still finding her range on a lot of stokes. So many return winners, though :)
