The Barty Party
#11
She should be the raging favourite.

The Czech kid is only ranked 38 and raw at 19 yo.
Finals, then 4 in a row!

Smart tennis and a great attitude.

Let’s hope she can get it done in the final.

Barty is pretty impressive under the pump, what a contrast compared to the other wankers Australia offers up. I might actually return to watching tennis if they delivery a few more kids like this.

A few more of Barty's and far less of the other knobs please!

The thing is the way she plays and goes about it, you would watch her even if she doesn't look like winning!

Into the French Open final.  ;D

Crazy match - 5 zip up in the first then went to sleep - lost the first in a tiebreak.

Down 3 zip in the second peels off 6 games in a row.

Down 2-1 (break down) in the third, then peels off 5 games in a row and has 0-40 to win - blows three match points.

then 40-0 on serve, wins it at 40-30.

Two in the world will make life moving through draws much easier going forward.

Very likeable, humble young lady too.

Teenagers making finals is always scary. Often have ability but haven't been round long enough to get up the rankings. Semi final scared me for that reason, especially as the other girl knocked off Halep in the previous round.

The way Barty has picked up clay is extraordinary, but relative to the Czech she must still be less "up to date" on that surface.

I thought the variable conditions helped Barty last game, she handled the wind and drizzle much better than the US kid, particularly serving into the wind, the US kid obviously preferred playing in perfect Florida conditions or indoors!

Fantastic.


Australia finally has a champion tennis player again. A player that just goes out there and plays the game because she loves it.

Take notice Nick the Dick.
I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.
