Excellent, Kerber takes the 1st. It's been a quality final so far. I can see Pliskova is nervous but not too bad. I can see her winning the next if she settles more.

Even if she does, Pliskobot still has to do the impossible and overcome the fact that Kerber is 44-0 in 2016 when she's won the first set.
Well done to Karolina, she worked so hard for that break, and now she takes the set! Still think I want Kerber to pull through here, but most of all hoping for a real tussle in the final set.

Keep the faith! Auf geht's Kerber.”
I do like that stat, lets hope she makes it 45 tonight. I'm enjoying the match, it's turned out to be really good.

To me, stats like that just say she's overdue to lose from that position.
