Sometimes goes for power too much rather than placing the ball one crazy forehand in the last game missed by about 10 feet

It's never going to be her biggest strength but Broady's movement has improved immeasurably.

The commentator keeps saying Broady is 6 foot 4!!! I'm sure she's no more than 6 foot 2.

Naomi's officially listed height is 189 cm - 6 ft 2˝ inches

Earlier he said Anderson 5 foot 5, "a foot shorter than Broady". And I was like - she's not THAT tall.

Good hold from Naomi there, saving BP, keeping the foot down and no let up.
A quick set here is just what she needs.
6-7(6) 5-0*

Naomi deservedly takes the second set bagel

Must say, she's absolutely leathering the ball.

Naomi Broady 6-7(6) 6-0 *0-0 WC Robin Anderson USA

Well, I, for one, didn't see that coming, but well done Naomi.
Bagels Anderson and so will serve first in the decider.

If I was an analyst, the tactics to Naomi would be to slice and take the pace off the ball. Quite often Naomi tries to leather the ball and over hits it.
Anderson medical time out on right leg.

6-0 Just what was ordered.

She needs to continue this fine play f possible for the deciding set and not argue with the authorities.

Yes, great set, she will well miss at times being as agressive as that, but that was very good.
