6-5* in a flash while I wasn't concentrating and I see her ace count has risen to 8.

First set Naomi

DF number 8 ( and possibly that was 2 in a game again ) gives Naomi the break to 30 and the first set

7-5

Ivanovic has been gradually looking more solid on serve, but now under the pressure of saving to stay in match. Hope it affects her like in the first set.
