Some people suggest it was a asthma attack? though when the trainer and doctor came to her chair she was hypenventilating in her chair,could be a panic attack

Get well Emma,getting to the 4th rd of a GS good result as a WC
Managing the "willies" is always tough on a youngster..ask Novak. I think Sampras's quote was the BEST..playing tennis , " you cannot pass the ball"..

Well another mental effect on a youngster. Could say the Osaka effect. Worst is still to come for Emma when she's facing the English tabloid press - which is the most horrible in the world. I''m proud of these tennis players that open up about this so we get a more balanced form from the press - like only letting journalists in that KNOW something about tennis - proved by a test. Red card to those who can't follow the rules - THAT includes the paper too - IMHO.

Emma is not facing the English press at all...there has been a statement released why she had to retire from her match.
"due to breathing problems' that was announced about 5 hours ago.Emma did not go to a press conference after her match

OK - but it's a problem with the way the press is behaving - so what are you comments to the rest?

Next ladies Q/Final is Sabalenka vs Jabeur
Tight 1st set so far on serve with Jabeur serving 4-5,the only BP so far was on Sabalenka's first service game.
Jabeur has to watch her 2nd serve,Sabalenka is just teeing off on it

2nd BP and SP
Again Jabeur with a great bhand slice saves the BP
3rd SP and MP with a cross court fh
Drop shot from Sabalenka wide
4th BP and SP for Sabalenka bh winner
Sabalenka has got the eye of a tiger
Drop shot from Jabeur finds the net
5th BP and SP for Sabalenka
Longest games of the match Sabalenka on her 5BP and SP wins the 1st set 64

Impressive stat for Sabalenka has only lost 2 points on serve,she has to keep that up if she is to win the match
At present Jabeur seems to be rushed by the power of Sabalenka
Sabalenka with BP
Sabalenka breaks in Jabeur's first service game of the 2nd set.
Jabeur breaks back....on serve early in the 2nd set

Sabalenka playing high power controlled tennis at present,Jabeur has no answers,Jabeur is being rushed by the power of Sabalenka.
Sabalenka 4-3 2nd set
Sabalenka with her 2BP.....Jabeur drop shot found the net,she is running out of ideas
Sabalenka will serve for the match 5-3
