 Serena surely has to win this match, watching the first 5 games the only way serena can lose is based on how many errors she makes. Serena to win this 2-0 easily

 If J.J wins she will be the new number 1.Same for Serena.Who do you think would be recognised as the top player in the world?It aint Jankovic that's for sure.We all know the ranking system means little as if you don't play enough events you are penalised.Serena will win as long as she doesn't get frustrated with all the balls J.J runs down.On current form it's Serena to win not that that counts for much.Serena been there before,J.J will fold under the pressure-hopefully.SERENA.W

 Nervous that some Insight stalwarts have selected Janko - 4.4 is very tempting. Have supported J. in the past and sometimes have wondered how she managed to win. (Brush with fame: stood next to the sisters and their entourage at The Regent, Melbourne counter in 2000 - guess they don't check themselves in now.)

 this might be closer than the odds suggest and I don't like the whole williams-clan at all but I really can't see jankovic winning this after what s.williams has shown in this tournament so far. I even have to say she deserves to win that title and I'm convinced she will.

 Serena Williams has been in ominous form throughout this tournament winning every match in straight sets. She has beaten far better opposition than Jankovic and should take her out in straight sets also. Jankovic in her first grand slam final and I really can't see her winning - even if she uses her fake injury tactics. Serena 2-0 with confidence.

 Jankovic´s game should suite Serena bad, as Jankovic keeps the ball in play which should force Serena in to making ue. Jankovic has to play at her top to beat Serena, but as previous meeting has shown she has a decent chance. Imo Jankovic has no less then 30 percent to win, which makes present odds great great value.

 Come on, Jankovic?

She`s not bad but Serena is has the heart and the game to trash Jankovic.

Arthur Ashe crowd will be fully supporting her... I don`t see how she can lose to Jankovic.... let`s wait........

Tip: ATP Players can have an uncanny liking (or disliking as the case may be) of certain tournaments. These sorts of factors are not directly built into the Insight Tennis Model and often help explain sudden reversals of form.
