Good on Serena for proving me wrong and playing like the world #1 that she is. I wouldn't have faulted her for bailing on this match mentally, but she stayed quietly focused and deliberate with her play. I was intense and methodical. And when Serena is calm, intense, and methodical, she's scary good.
So Serena is the first to confirm her place in the semis. Elena, at 1-1, is still in the running. Serena also remains undefeated which might help her earn some extra cash (there's bonus money if you go undefeated).
I mean, I can't possibly think what she might need some cash for...
