[ToffeeAlex]

Belinda in trouble. Pavly serving for the match.

And loses 6-2 6-4.

Does anyone happen to know what tournaments she is playing in before the USO, if any?

 

[tented]

Belinda in trouble. Pavly serving for the match.

And loses 6-2 6-4.

Does anyone happen to know what tournaments she is playing in before the USO, if any?

Does she have a website? If so, she almost certainly has her schedule on it.

 

[Kirijax]

Bencic lost? Oh maaaaannnnnn.... :cover

What is this? Seeds show for appearance money and then lose Week?

Time for Stosur to back up her Serena talk by beating...um....Macaroni...no....Macarena....no...never mind.

Makarova and Stosur heading for a showdown!

 

[Kirijax]

In the first semfinal between top seed Makarova and Pavlyuchenkova, Makarova had to retire with a leg injury so Pavlyuchenkova advances to the final! Will face the winner of No. 2 Stosur and Stephens.

 

[kskate2]

Ebony Smooth in her Wimbledon dress takes the opening set TB.

 

[kskate2]

And comprehensively thumped Sam in the 2nd set w/ a glazed donut. After 6 SF's Sloane finally makes her debut final. :clap

Oh Stosur, if you can't take out Sloane in a lower level tournament w/o eating bakery products, how in the world you think you can defeat world #1? :lolz:

 

[GameSetAndMath]

ES has a easy opponent in AP. But, will she bother with silly things like winning a title?

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Congrats on your first final Sloane! Let's see if you can win it now!

 

[tossip]

I will never congratulate ES actually I am hoping Pav wins another title...

 

[tossip]

Stosur bagelled by ES....thats embarassing.

 

[the AntiPusher]

Ebony Smooth in her Wimbledon dress takes the opening set TB.

I like that name Ebony Smooth

 

[Sundaymorningguy]

Sloane just won her first title! Congrats to her 6-1, 6-2

 

[Kirijax]

What a win for Stephens! Hard to believe this was her first title! Way over due and very happy for her!

:clap

 

[special700]

I was hoping she would lose. I cannot stand her. I also hope that's her one and only trophy.

 

[tossip]

Pavlyuchenkova is a disappointment,she was very good when she joined the tour now she wants to be a hip hop artist and just make a check here and there.
