That will give her confidence but will that turn into pressure?

Poor Vondrousova. Barty plays a perfect drop shot and there is no way the Czech can get to that.
The 23-year-old holds.

Barty will be ranked second in the world if she wins today.

But wait, a rare moment of mental weakness for Barty in this match.
She comes to the net and has plenty of time to slam down a forehand but puts way too much on it and it lands out.
Vondrousova holds to love.

*Barty 6-1 2-1 Vondrousova
It's been an interesting journey to a first Grand Slam singles final for Barty.
It comes almost three years to the day since she reappeared in the WTA rankings - at 623rd - after taking a break from the sport for more than a year to play professional cricket.
The Queenslander retired in 2014 and played for the Brisbane Heat in the women's Big Bash after saying tennis was a "lonely sport".
But she decided to return 17 months later and has since won four tour titles, including the biggest victory of her career at the Miami Open in March.

Lovely. Vondrousova runs to the net and whizzes a forehand down the line. That's more like it.
She powers up her left arm once again and gets her first hold of the match.

Barty 6-1 2-0 Vondrousova*
Vondrousova saves break point, but Barty has her on the run and gets another go.
