Rogers Cup 2014 Montreal

[Correspondent Kiu]

Stephanie Dubois of Canada took the same route Genie took, won the middle set but lost in 3

Vika is playing 3rd set with Alize.

Serena vs. Stosur and Masha vs. Mugu tomorrow.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

I just tuned in, as usual I am late but Vika looks fine to me.
Exchange of breaks between Vika and Alize, 1-1 in the 3rd set. Alize is serving.

That means there are no more Canadian Girls left in the draw. In the ATP side also, just one is
left.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

I have seen a top 10 player going out in their opening match.

I have seen a top 10 players getting bagelled twice in a match.

I have also seen top 10 players getting beaten by someone ranked outside 100.

But, I have not seen a top 10 player getting bagelled twice in the first round by
an opponent ranked outside 100.

O'Canada :cry

Pavlik have you got Carolines match too - would be nice to see it again. Thank you for your fine uploads.

A little funny comment brought in ESPN UK about Caro's match yesterday:

Caroline Wozniacki eased past Daniel Hantuchova 6-1 6-1 and seemingly had a tougher time getting ready for her match than when she was actually on court.

"It's just so different: Everywhere, in the locker room, it's so dark," Wozniacki said. "We have to use our flashlights and phones. The water is freezing, as well."

Little stats from yesterday:

Caroline Wozniacki made 39 winners in this aspect of the match. Daniela Hantuchova had 10.
In this fashion the Danish world no 13 broke her opponent's serve six times and even managed to be broken once herself, despite only losing two games.

in the locker room, it's so dark," Wozniacki said.

So thats why she wore those silly Stella pants and looked like a clown. She couldnt see what she was wearing
Caro could look stunning in that classy new adidas one piece design. Ana, Dani, Simona, Rogers, and many others wear it. It even makes the ugly ones look good and it will look great on Caro.
I hope Stella is paying Caro well for wearing her silly clothes

Caro played well v Dani and she looks better in the last month. She looks sharper.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

By now, we all know your opinion of Stella.

Caro is wearing what she had in Istanbul, which I like!

Surprise, surprise--> Garcia jumps ahead of Kerber 3-0
Heather holds tight against Domi, now 2-2 in the opening set.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Kerber takes 5 games in a row, now up 5-3 against Garcia who is serving to stay in the set.

Watson takes charge and the first set 6-2

 

[kskate2]

She is running all over Cibby, just like the Canadian girl did the other night. Now down an early break in the 2nd 2-0

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Kerber serves and takes first set 6-4
Watson has a break point!

 

[kskate2]

^ Make that a double break 3-0. Her weak serve is getting abused

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

I know someone around here who will be happy.
Where are those Brits when you need them?

I just don't see Lil' Domi coming back from such a deficit, she is a streaky player and right now, this is not the right streak.

Both Kerber and Watson are serving, ahead 4-1 in the second set.

 

[kskate2]

Cibby climbs all the way back and levels the set at 4-4

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

I just don't see Lil' Domi coming back from such a deficit, she is a streaky player and right now, this is not the right streak.

May be I shouldn't have said that?

Domi roars back, takes 4 games in a row, now tied at 4-4 and back on serve.

Kerbie moves into 3rd round enjoying a comfy second set, won it 6-1

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Tie breaker, anyone?

 

[kskate2]

Wheels have fallen off the Watson truck. She goes down 5-0 in the breaker
