Well deserved!

Danielle Collins will be back in the Top Ten after Strasbourg, when the new rankings come out on Monday, ( she has made the SFs), regardless of whats going to happen in the rest of the the week.
Danielle is the de facto American number one.She has been the best of the Americans and followed by Keys then Emma.

I forgot to post this earlier

I am convinced that Iga Swiatek 'never takes her cap off' only to shower/or have a bath, she arrived at the draw ceremony in a black hat! lol!

Agree 100% and I think she will be able to represent USA in the Olympics, a fitting farewell considering this is her last year on tour
This is why she's playing so much MM. I forgot, they pick the top 4 Americans by rank right after RG. She's trying to edge out Madi/Emma so she can have that 3rd spot no questions asked.

The Banshee too strong in the 2nd set for Kalinina winning the match 76(3) 62, Banshee improves 22 matches winning streak against players not named Sabalenka:)
Collins will play Keys in the final tomorrow at the WTA500 Strasbourg
Noone will want to face The Banshee in their side of the draw at Roland Garros, with the form she has shown during the clay season!, also Keys showing good form in the clay season!

4 years is quite a long time, but the Banshee is petty enough to hold a grudge. She wants all these points and titles.

Madison has been playing well on clay, their H2H is 1 all, though they havent played each other since 2020 at the Brisbane International where Madison won in straight sets

I think it's still Coco.. remember two thirds of the earth is covered by water and the rest was covered by Rafa ...now it's Coco

The banshee.is getting whipped and is down a set and 0-3 in the 2nd to my scrub Keys .it's still time for keys to give the match back to the banshee.

Update: my scrub is going to hold on to win..
