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.

MM is not talking about Saba either. Again, this whole convo is about Danielle. Banshee is Danielle and has been for at least 2 years. You're the only person who isn't aware.

Lets hope that the Top Half of the draw dosent have the 'carnage like the bottom half of the draw did yesterday'

You could put a little key at the top of the thread for all of the random nicknames. Less alienating.

Ons Jabeur comes back from 2-4 in the 3rd set to defeat Fernandez 75 26 64
Ons just won her first back to back matches since September 2023!
Ons will play Ostapenko on Monday. BTW Ferdasco is coaching Ons this week in Madrid

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.

She is good and I remember her reaching the semis

Coco you were serving for the 1st set 5-1 and have let Yastremska back into the 1st set? back on serve Focus!, also 6 DFs is not helping your cause
Coco breaks Yastremska serve and wins the 1st set 64

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Better set of tennis from Coco Gauff in the 2nd set, defeats Yamstremska (31) 64 61

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

In a hard fought match,
Haddad Maid (11) d E.Navarro (19) 64 64

Collins reached the QFs at Roland Garros in 2020

That's still a good showing..I am not a fan but she can make some noise in Paris.

In a very good routine win in just under 1 hour Jasmine Paolini defeats Caroline Garcia 62 63

This is where Emma needs to get to. The level of confidence Jasmine has now. She doesn't shrink back from any challenge. She walks onto court now w/ the sincerest belief she will win and leave it all out there. Emma is not quite there yet. She didn't do well in front of her home crowd in Charleston, which carried over to Madrid.

What's wrong w/ the Banshee? I just came in and saw her screaming at someone in the stands. She said something about "why don't you come out and do what I do. Have a little more respect." I don't have any context and neither did Courier or the other clown I can't stand calling this match.

I know The Banshee is not a happy camper, I have never seen her do that before, down a set to Christian and in a battle in the 2nd set, she should have skipped Madrid
