2014 Wimbledon Final: Bouchard vs. Kvitova

[Moxie]

In the zone performance. Great job. Genie will get hers next year or so, Im sure.

 

[Riotbeard]

Well do the Andy Murray thing, Genie is North American, Milos is Canadian.

 

[Moxie]

Actually, I heard the ESPN people making that very joke yesterday, claiming them both as North American, actually.

 

[Moxie]

Is anyone else having weird glitches in the chat or trouble with the forum? It could be my computer. I rebooted.

 

[Riotbeard]

Its all going a bit slow for me. Murat was complaining about calling Milos North American yesterday. They can have him IMO

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

very slow, I am having difficulty reaching the main website. I couldnt even access the forums for a while.

 

[Riotbeard]

The main website would not load for me so I bypassed to the mens forum. Seems better now

 

[Front242]

well, was hoping Bouchard would win but that performance from Kvitova was incredible

 

[Moxie]

Ill let britbox know were having trouble.

 

[Moxie]

Agreed, Front. I like Genie, but Petra was untouchable today.

 

[Moxie]

Now its going faster, btw.

 

[britbox]

Should be OK now - the server seemed to drop out for a bit.

 

[Front242]

Some of the best tennis Ive ever seen. Not many players couldve done anyting to counter that and I hope her coach tells her

 

[Front242]

cos you couldnt feel you did anything wrong there. Kvitova was just incredible

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Wow!
What an impressive display of Tennis from Petra, she was awesome today, saved her best for last. Genie wasn't bad but Petra was just out in the zone.

Congrads on your second major championship.

From my limited knowledge in servers I say that the website server has a stacked memory caused by the chat application. The memory is full. Only closing the chat will solve the problem.
The match has ended already... close the chat and bring the site back to normal please.

 

[Si Si Simona]

Should be OK now - the server seemed to drop out for a bit.

The chat is killing the website. Better not use it at all and just post on the match thread. Check if server memory is still loaded after you closed the chat.

 

[britbox]

It's unrelated to the chat. The web host are having issues with their cloud hosting. Other sites on their network have been affected also. Hopefully they should sort soon.

There was no way the final could have been competitive unless Petra lost focus. If she stays healthy, she can win another three titles here.

 

[Backhand_DTL]

Yes, I'm not surprised that she won easily, although I wouldn't have expected such a scoreline. But when playing well Kvitova is simply much better on grass with the serve and the first strike than Bouchard (and probably anybody else other than Serena and Venus in good form and maybe Lisicki at her best).

You never know if Kvitova will play well from one match to another, but when she makes a final she much more often plays at a high level than not in it.
