Those moments – neither of which produced anything more than an isolated point – however, were rarities. For the rest of the match, Sharapova was stuck on her heels. She double-faulted away the first set 6-2. And the second was gone from her before she could get her bearings. Yet, one-way traffic as it might have been, Sharapova is nothing if not a fighter. She managed to face down match point on her own serve. But Williams immediately served up the most extraordinary game to win it, one in which Sharapova did not even participate. This may have been personal but, as revenge goes, it was a dish Williams served up piping hot.
