    If you're Serena Williams right now, the goal is to get as many returns back in play as possible to make Maya Joint feel this moment.

    She has to make her earn it.

    Serena just does not move as well as she did. Mobility is key in tennis. She has the heart of a champion, but father time always wins in the end. A brave effort.

    As Serena Williams struggles for energy, Maya Joint flexes hers, rushing the net and nailing a forehand volley, one foot crossed behind other.

    But Williams holds to 30. Over to you, Maya - can you serve it out?

    There is rather stunned silence here in not only the commentary booth but also in the crowd.

    There was that easy backhand to go up 3-1 which was missed, but we all remembered it is Serena Williams. But then you remember she is 44 years old and it has been two hours and 15 minutes of play.

    It is hard to digest and comprehend what's happening because it does look like all of a sudden her energy levels have dropped completely.

    Following both Wawrinka and Williams on the text updates while on an aeroplane is equal parts stressful and exciting, I can confirm! It's great to see a 44-year-old and a 41-year-old, respectively, producing first-class grass court tennis late on a beautiful Tuesday night.

    Maya Joint double faults for 40-30 but keeps her cool, even after missing another first serve, to move to within one match of the second round.

    Serena Williams netted a tired backhand on game point.

    From about halfway through the second set, I could see Serena Williams' fitness trainer telling her to eat something. She is being told to keep nibbling on the change of ends.

    I think they were worried about her energy levels around half an hour ago because this is a real pick up in intensity.

    Serena Williams seems to have lost a little energy of late. She isn't pushing up on her serve at all really.

    It is like all the air has come out of the balloon on her side.

    Serena Willams has gone away from slicing and odd drop shot, messing up the rhythm; they have once again gone back to this 'ding dong' battle at the baseline.

    It feels like Maya Joint is finding her rhythm once again.

    Lovely from Maya Joint, opening up the court and converting a down-the-line backhand. Serena Williams was stranded. 0-30.

    A double fault. Is the tide turning?

    You've got to love the fight from Maya Joint though because it was all coming down on her shoulders given the chances she had.

    All you can ask for as a competitor is for her to keep battling. I love to see that from her.

    That's a tough game for Serena Williams to lose because she was up 2-1 with the break and she added that short backhand approach that normally would've won the point.

    She could've been up 3-1 there.
