I dont mind players tweaking their serves, still since Coco spent time with Roddick, on her serve in the off season, it hasnt improved, actually at times in tournaments it has got worse, at IW she had 17 DFs, Tossip and I were having kittens in that match, she won ugly
There's a time and place to tweak the serve. On your way to Auz is not one of them. Why not do it in the off season? Oh right, she was too busy w/ her Vogue/Time covers and other endorsements. She better get serious again about her game. This summer she has a ton of points coming off.

Those last 3 wins by Mirra Andreeva have established her as a dark horse contender to win the French Open.

Pleasing your many sponsors can get in the way of your training etc, still without good results your sponsors will be looking elsewhere.
Coco hasnt played well since the AO, hopefully she will get out of this mini'slump' she presently finds herself in

AP will be happy his girl Madison won 76(4) 46 64 over Gauff
You know I always thought Coco would win her 1st GS on clay, she is a good athlete and plays defense well.
13 DFs didnt help your cause in the match Coco, back to the drawing board

She is struggling on serve plus the dfs are too many.

Rybakina defeats the 18 yo Czech player Bejlek 61 63, this court suits Elena and she is one of my favs that can win this title in Madrid

Putintseva has a break in the 3rd set against Kastakina leading 4-2
Putintseva defeats the No 11 seed Kasatkina 36 62 62

MM, what happens to the #2 ranking if both Coco and Saba go out today (Coco already gone)?
