Jess you can bash your racquet at your feet, you were the one you could not convert all those BPs, they were there for the taking

knew it. the question is will Jess be mad enough to do anything about it. She could break right back as Simo's serve is asking to be handled. Can Jess get out of her own way?
Jess needs to buckle down, she can break the serve of Halep, it is there for taking, first Jess has to have a good service game of her own, she has been taking to deuce too many times in her service game.

Ugh. These errors. I can't take it. I would rather watch a rerun of Law & Order. I'll be back when the men play.

4 straight games in the final set from Halep and she will now serve for the match 5-2

Of course Jess breaks, Halep when she was serving for the match
Halep leads 5-3 final set

Halep will try and serve for the match a 2nd time leading 5-4

Jess those BPs you had in the match,which you could not convert, especially your return game on Simona's weak serve will probalby come back to haunt you.

Wow Halep is being extra with her emotions.Maybe Patrick is encouraging her to be obnoxious out there.
Jess had her chances to win this match, sad to say, anyway she has to play doubles shortly with Coco

Simona Halep will return to the Top 10 when the WTA rankings are updated on Monday
Halep can rise as high as No 6 if she wins the final.

Well done to Jess and Coco defeating the doubles pairing of Mirza and Key 75 75 making the doubles final
BTW Coco Gauff is just one win away from becoming the No 1 doubles player in the world, not bad for a 18 year old:)

What a bad loser!


Actually Simona is a 'pusher' Jess has got that right, I dont think Jess is a bad loser, to me, she was frustrated with herself, she had many chances to win the match, too many UFE cost her and she should have returned the weak serve of Halep better, especially in the 2nd and 3rd sets of the match

I have watched Simona play numerous times very up close in person, I wouldn't consider her to be a Pusher

Whether Simo is a pusher or not, you don't do yourself any favors being beat by her. Especially when presented with multiple BP's.
