00:00John Kane Arena, it is time for our women's singles match.
00:04Please welcome first from the USA, Ashlyn Krueger.
00:22And also from the United States, please welcome to the court, Madison Keyes.
00:30The twelfth appearance at Melbourne Park, this time as the defending champion.
00:38Special coin, A.O. and Edmondson. Ashlyn, can you choose?
00:41A.O.
00:41A.O. Billy, go ahead.
00:46A.O.
00:48Serve.
00:49Say, don't worry about the coin, turn around and smile.
00:52And over here, just go back, back, back a little bit.
00:57Young Billy, tossing the coin.
00:59I don't think anybody's selected Mark Edmondson.
01:02Totally different proposition.
01:18Oh, just recycling the pace of the return.
01:21Almost knowing what was coming.
01:36Oh, wow.
01:37It's excellent.
01:38Yeah, I agree, Renee.
01:39I think it just looks so much more fluid.
01:41I think it...
01:42Oh, she's making a real statement with that backhand.
01:56I think Madison is such a...
01:57It's been such an exceptional start.
01:59First set point negotiated, a triple break.
02:06A.O.
02:07High six games to one.
02:08New goals, please.
02:08In the opening set, 6-1 to the defending champion.
02:10And it's all happening a little bit too quickly for Ashlyn Krueger.
02:14She's a young age that she should win a Grand Slam, win a Grand Slam.
02:20Then she got so close, lost to Sloan, of course, in the finals of the U.S. Open in 2017.
02:24Oh, that's a great ball.
02:36But she really got to the stage where she kind of released.
02:43Oh, that's too good.
02:46That's ridiculous.
02:47That was a great return.
02:48Oh, that's too good.
03:10And to help her in this return game.
03:13Really a stunning turnaround by the defending champion.
03:20I just said, Sula, 6-1, 7-5.
03:23In the second set, she's shown her Grand Slam pedigree.
03:29A lot of respect of the net, but this has sent a clear message that Madison Keyes is here to defend the title with everything she's got at Melbourne Park.
03:40Her with the trophy to her mom recently.
03:47But just looking over the final numbers, Madison had to do some hard work in that second set.
03:53She had a lot of winners, 17, and compared to 10 of Krueger, served very well.
03:59Won 70% of those first serve points, won, and a lot better on the second serve.
04:10But that's who we are in the second defenseman.
04:21You can tell by the proof that she's got to do.
04:23If you're just getting an introduction, you can get to say, no matter how much, but you're just keeping her even alive.
04:27Let's say what did you think?
04:28And that's that new.
04:28And that's how we're trying to do great new features.
04:30And that's how we're trying to tackle thisakah start-up 3th case.
04:31However, a wonderful place to allow you to invest in this situation, do you have to have too much more confident genes.
04:34Next dia, there's a series of aike start-up shout out petrolguard.
04:36Bye.
