Vee is looking very pretty in yellow...I used to hate to see her in yellow at the AO because I knew she was not winning wearing that color..

Looks like Aga's days at the top are being numbered. She is losing to all kinds of players nowadays.

Venus isn't even 100% and she put a whoopin on Lucie. Let's see what happens w/ Peng today. They put Kerbie on Court 2 and Mugu on Court 3

Was that a ploy by Venus to play with such a lower mph serve..Lucie had no answer for it..at the end of the 2nd set..Venus began to serve bombs again.,it was a smart tactic if that was her strategy :clap

Mugu finally playing well again. It's been almost a year. Let's see what she does against Pliskova. They will be cracking the ball.

Keys cannot outrun Wozniacki..

Again my friend you re correct Madison is just a ball basher ..if her big game isn't working which is her Option A, she has no option B..I always said Sharapova plan A is to hit the ball hard, if that's not working plan B is to hit it harder..the difference is Madison is too damn inconsistent plus she has slow feet. Davenport had slow feet but she had great anticipation..Madison has nothing against the better players.. Tossip I learned my lesson, this girl has not learn a damn thing

Davenport and Sharapova both learned their strokes from Lansdorf. That's why their strokes are grade A. Madison doesn't have the same level of consistency because her stroke isn't the same. If she wants to emulate Maria and Lindsay so much, she needs to follow the same recipe and get him as a consultant or stroke coach.

She could afford to do both. Nothing wrong with having superior strokes and footwork, no!
