Lovely post match comments by both players.
I still think Coco is too young for this.

(268,717 posts)I don't often agree with Chrissie but when she said the Coco deserves to head back to school and on level ground for a while, I screamed in agreement. She will end up like Jennifer Capriati or Anna kournikova - burnt out and destroyed.
We often destroy the flavor of the month in sports. I think Coco has lots of potential but she needs to get a chance to grow up, finish school, have friends and have a life.
In the end the Williams model worked - they had none of the early tournaments or they hype.

(29,618 posts)She's a baby.....a good and fantastic tennis player, but she needs a teenager's life. I mean come on.....the top court, prime time slot, and everyone rooting for her?? Yah, needs to take a break, go back to school and get back to normal. Where IS jennifer capriati anyway?
