Geez the way folk have turned on Fernandez all of a sudden.
They both doing exceptional, why do we have to insult the one cause we support the other. I want Raducanu to win also, but can admire what Fernandez is doing as well.

The turning was only because of the way she reacted to the medical time out.

Outside of that, she’s been absolutely amazing.

No, but when you become a champion, gravity becomes much stronger so your body doesn't have time to adjust at first. Usually takes atleast 30seconds until they find their feet again.
Murray is the only one who's man enough to not do it haha. Don't see Snooker players falling to their knees when they pot the frame winning ball

because she was being a little bitch. If she'd cut her knee, in that position she would have done the same.

Dutch commentator says Fernández had a similar wound in the first round and had to finish the game or something.

Great point to win on. I was half expecting to hear a call, but it was in.

I always wonder what these tennis players say to each other when they do that awkward winner-loser hug once the game has finished.

"gg...I guess"
