"Chrissie has her Bagel-Party face on," Bud Collins says near the end of the first set, and sure enough Evert served two rounds of bagels for breakfast that day. The 1981 Amelia Island final is a very pivital match, both because Chris walloped Martina with her worst ever defeat, but also because Navratilova used that loss to fuel her own re-invention, becoming the player she always knew was in her True Potential self. But not before Chrissie got to show a little of her already-realized potential self on full display!

Bud Collins & Ann Jones are the commentators. Note: The last line in the post-match exchange, after acknowledging she and John Lloyd were enjoying married life, was "I think that's why I played so well."
