At least as a seed she held on to win, escapes the "carnage that happened today for some seeds in the bottom half of the draw'

I think Banshee is burnt out. Probably needed another week and should've just played Rome and RG

I don't know...she's prone to UFE laden matches. It was ugly, but she won.

True. But I think this win streak took a lot out of her mentally and she probably could have benefitted from another week off, but as this is her last season I can see why she wouldn't want to skip it.

Are you saying that Sabalenka is retiring?

 

[tossip]

Collins can win RG..she is surprisingly good in Paris.I want her to go out with a bang..

I dont know about Danielle winning RG, long way to go to Paris, conditions are slower, anyway lets see how she goes in Madrid, I have to agree with Kskate, she looked tired to me,she was lucky to win today, she should have skipped Madrid and played Rome then RG.I feel she would have a better chance at the USO where conditions suit Danielle better.

No one is talking about Saba. This whole convo was about Danielle

I thought your "Banshee" was Sabalenka. I was talking about Sabalenka's match, and so was Margaret. Forgive me for getting lost. Both had matches today. Maybe if you'd just use their names, it would help. I thought when you responded to me, you knew I was talking about Sabalenka's match. You seemed to.
