And there's the moment of madness. Bad, bad miss from Jo brings up 2 match points for Paszek. Saves the first,
Jo loses 75 06 76(5)
Heartbreaker
Routine FH rally ball error to finish. Shame because JoKo played really really well, but slightly more passive play and those FHs seemed to let her down at key moments. Both things I'm sure she's working like mad on with her coach, so there's bags of upside for her.
Gutted - I didn't see the 1st set, admittedly, but JoKo looked the better player to me most of the time. Paszek did well to hang in there and take her chances.
