At 15-30 she thought a ball from Navratilova was over the baseline but it was ruled good and Martina broke service for That was the most Important point of the first set," she said later. I cant really do something about it.
I guess the guy was asleep or something. I think It bothered me a little bit that game and the next. I kept thinking back to it. Madlock Stargell Help Bucs Top Cards in the six matches she has played here, she has yet to yield more than four games In a set.

I was nervous this morning, more than for the whole of the tournament, Navatilova said following her 75-minute conquest of Austin. I will probably be a nervous wreck on Friday morning, although I'm able to concentrate totally on whatever Im doing. I dont have to worry very much about pressure now.

In 1978, when Martina won at Wimbledon, she also had beaten Evert In the Eastbourne final. "I'm a lot better off mentally this year, said Evert, who will be appearing in the Wimbledon final for the sixth time, having won it twice. Last year I never thought mentally 1 would win the match, even when I was up 4-2 (in the third set).
I just didnt believe In myself. Right now I know I can beat Martina, just as she knows she can beat me. I have the confidence tn my game.
