I didn't see that coming

Apparently neither did Serena. I have to think that a bad foot combined with a late night (even if she did so efficiently dismantle the lovely Wozniacki) put her off her form. And the frustration boiled over on the hindrance call. I guess she'll learn to celebrate winning the point until after said point is won. It's nice to see more variety in the women's game.

Speaking of lack of variety, the men's game -- top 4 seeds through to the semis -- is now like the women's game used to be. Fed made it really interesting, and Djokovic made it stunning with that go-for-it crosscourter on match point. I expect another five setter on Monday. I might even be able to see part of it.
