The way that Pliskova has been improving, it will be a real challenge for Barty to get her confidence back.

Tom Cruise is in the house. Has anyone made the Mission Impossible gag? Oh, everyone? OK.
In that case, let's go with... are we going to see a 'Maverick' performance from either Barty or Pliskova in the third set? The best I've got. Sorry.

Game and second set Pliskovapublished at 15:26 British Summer Time 10 July 2021
Barty 6-3 6-7 (4-7) Pliskova
One is saved by Barty. Can she push the pressure back onto Pliskova and make her serve it out?
No! Gasps of shock as Barty produces a double fault.
To the decider!

Pliskova takes the first but not the second. That means Barty has to serve to stay in the set.

Former Wimbledon champion on BBC Radio 5 LiveWhat a point! Pliskova will be calling the net manufacturer and thanking them for that!

Barty 6-3 6-6 (2-5) Pliskova*
What a point! Centre on its feet. Pliskova gets a hand from a net cord, Barty taps back over, but a lob from the Czech has Barty scrambling. She gets it back but it is planted away by Pliskova.
Two serves for the set...

Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 LiveThere's a roar from Karolina Pliskova and you just feel that she drew the error from Barty.
She is finally making Barty play.

Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 LiveBarty did win a very good tie-break in the semi-finals against Kerber. If Pliskova can tighten up her game, this could be really tricky one.

Barty was brilliant in the second-set tie-break against Angie Kerber in Thursday's semi-final. There she raced into a 6-0 lead.
Today? Pliskova wins the first point.

Pliskova breaks backpublished at 15:19 British Summer Time 10 July 2021
Barty 6-3 6-6 Pliskova
Well, well, well. Serving out for the Wimbledon title isn't easy, eh? Who'd have thought it. An edgy service game from Barty lets Pliskova back in. To tie-break town we go...

*Barty 6-3 6-5 Pliskova
Let's not write the Czech off just yet. At 15-15, she forces Barty onto the back foot and the Aussie pushes a forehand wide. That's 15-30 and half a chance...

*Barty 6-3 6-5 Pliskova
Pliskova might have a few nightmares tonight, but that volley into the net at 40-0 - just as she was finding some rhythm - will be a recurring visualization if she loses.

Cashy is right. And it is illustrated as Barty hangs tough, getting the ball back to Pliskova and continually asking questions. The Czech can't provide the answer, knocking a backhand into the net.
That is the break. And it means Barty will attempt to serve out... for the championship.
