Ma goes up 40-15 on Stearns’ serve to open things, but Stearns wins three straight to hold.
A bizarre service game from Ma. Stearns went up 40-0, and it looked like this might be a short day for Connie, with Stearns super aggressive and leaving Connie looking lost. And then Stearns hit a series of seemingly disinterested returns and forehands long, and Ma holds for 1-1. Weird and sudden shift in form. Then Stearns looks a little erratic on serve, and Ma breaks to go up 2-1!
With Stearns being such a big, aggressive hitter, Ma might find success being the wall today. Just get it back. She’s so athletic that as much as Stearns is trying to stretch her wide, Connie can get to those balls and get them back. That’s frustrating Stearns so far and leading to some unforced errors from her.
Stearns breaks and then holds to go up 3-2, with Connie going up 40-15 on Stearns’ serve again but being unable to convert. One bizarre thing is how extreme the Texas on-court coaching is. It’s after darn near every point!
