Andy Murray beat Florian Mayer in straight sets and in under two hours. Andy is now a two time grand slam champion and now is more confident and even if drops the odd set. He knows how to regroup and win.
Serena Williams beat Sloane Stephens in straight sets and it was very compelling match. Serena worked very hard for this victory and I can honestly say that if felt like I was watching vintage Serena. It has been a while since I have seen Serena to chasing the ball like that.
Sloane played very well in fact it's the best I have seen her play. Her movement was excellent and shot was also excellent but Serena with wealth of experience was the better player.
Sloane can take a lot positives out of this game and I am sure against any other she would have won. Sloane needs to be consistently playing like this week in week out. Which will help to increase her confidence and develop her game.
Ekaterina Markarova beat Aga Radwanska in straight sets. This was a surprising result, however with the non attacking game that Aga plays it was only a matter time before the more attack minded players start beating her.
Hopefully this loss plus the Wimbledon loss will force Aga to reevaluate her playing strategy and become more attack minded.
