Don't you think at times she just looks 'disinterested' in matches,she has never been a player that can come from behind.

Ever since she got involved w/ that football player her focus took a dive. I thought after the honeymoon period wore off, she would get back on track

Projected Q/finals....

Pliskova (1) vs Sakkari (6)...........Sakkari gone
Krejcikova (3) vs Muguruza (6).........Muguruza gone
Kvitova (7) vs Svitolina (4)
Bencic (8) vs Swiatek (2).....Bencic withdrew with a injured knee before projection

Unless Iga or Babs catches fire on this slow court. It's very possible we're looking at a winner outside the top 10.

At least Bianca and Iga can play on these courts.I liked what I saw from Golubic today,she handled the court well.

Bianca that was a woeful service game from you,let Alison back into the match

She's just not as sharp as she used to be. I'm not sure exactly what the issue is, but she needs to find the answer quickly. It's been like this all season.

Maybe a lack of matches,she looked sharp then puts in a woeful service game,then serves a love service game? or a lack of focus?

 

[kskate2]

Well I have to say I was disappointed that Giorgi lost to Anisimova. Sure, I wish the result was the other way around, But I understand, that it can't always go the way that fans want it to. It just can't. So now Camilla is what, 0-5, since winning in Montreal? Wow, that woman, you know she is just trying to find a way to win a match. I hope she does, this is awful. However, I will sit back, watch the results, and pray. Yes everyone tells me she is Jewish, but who cares? I am a good Catholic guy and if she even showed the slightest interest in me you know I would be shouting from the roof .......but that will never happen, I am a realistic individual, and I can go back to my fantasy life and everyone can say hey "that "Ellentonboy" sure has an accelerated sense of his own self importance! I don't, and I sure wish Camilla would notice me!

Never say never. Genie dated a regular Joe for months, Vika had a kid w/ one and Kimmie married one.

Possibly. I find myself using that as an excuse though. I feel like she has played a good number of matches this year.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Help me Bianca,you were 4-1 in this set and now Riske will serve for the 2nd set 6-5
BTW Stop Moonballing Bianca.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Riske wins 2nd set 7-5....going to a 3rd set.....Bianca had 2 BPs

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Both players have left the court....Bianca has asked for a trainer,she went off court.I do not know what the problem is

 

[Fiero425]

Riske wins 2nd set 7-5....going to a 3rd set.....Bianca had 2 BPs

We should have been able to move onto something else 30 min. ago! How does she do this again & again? Used t/b a fan, but something's missing!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Good result for Coco/Leylah in the doubles defeating the 5th seeds Mclichar/Schuurs 63 62
Coco and Leylah are into the q/finals with that win

Ksakate and I were just discussing this,lack of focus,I am running out of answers or excuses,cause she has a great game,I love watching her play,she is just not as consistent as she used to be.Hopefully the new coach can find some answers why this is happening to her game and correct it.

Schuurs was not amused! That was "some" look at the net after the shakes of hands!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Bianca had a open cut apparently in her leg and had to have treatment off court

Both players back on court for set no 3

I think it's just the way she is,,she is not an overly emotional player or displays it sparingly IMO

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

One of my commentators just said she feels it was a lack of concentration from Bianca when she was leading 4-1 in the 2nd set and lost it.

Sometimes when she is behind to me she just gives up,she appears not to want to fight for a win
