Laura has all the momentum, just nerves and fitness to take into consideration.

And gives the break back with 2 DFs! I despair, I really do.

At 4-2, the pressure is beginning to swing towards Rybarikova. So Laura gives her a DF to start the game, instant boost for her opponent. Loses the next point, and her opponent is on the verge of breaking after only winning 1 point in the game. Then Laura serves another DF, to go 0-40.

Its just terrible matchplay at the moment. This is going to be a comfortable straight set loss, clearly.

 

Well Robsons bakery might not open today in terms of breadsticks and bagels, but Chef Robson has certainly served me a hearty portion of humble pie - and its never tasted better!

Finish her off please Laura!

Some pressure from Rybarikova on the Robson serve, a couple of deuces, but Laura holds her nerve
4-0*

Ah pity couldn't break for * 5-0.

*4-1 is good but still quite a bit from the finishing line in a WTA match with no real serve superiority and many close games. And Laura hasn't been crossing that line too often recently.

C'mon !

Robson wins. Well done Laura. Even I was expecting her to make a horrible mess of the 3rd set when she missed those 3 bps at 4-0.
