- Match stabilises if she dominates first-serve points.
Why Sabalenka is favoured
Three reasons (tennis logic)
- Repeatable win route: power baseline control creates constant pressure.
- Serve advantage: higher first-serve impact gives free points.
- Aggressive return: limits Gauff’s ability to dictate rallies.
What would change the read
