This is your one-stop place to discuss upsets; projected, happening live as well as done & dusted ones.
Primary purpose is to alert other people so that they can catch upsets as they happen live (sort of like NFL Red Zone Channel). I will leave it up to you to determine whether something is considered an upset or not (ranking positions need not be the only criteria).

Let us begin by projecting some upsets once the Monday's schedule comes out.

First casualty is Rybarikova. Petko and Pliskobot were pushed to 3 sets. Ebony Smooth in big trouble down a set and a break. Sevastova drops the opener to Camila

I guess the tactic of not playing a tune-up didn't work too well.

ES not playing a tune-up and not getting to London until Fri doesn't bode well for a good start at a slam starting on Mon. Also Sloane spends alot of time in Canada w/ her boytoy when she's not competing (maybe too much time).

Wertheim is not worth listening to or reading. He adds nothing to the discussion. How would Sloane ever reach the final of Wimby? Maybe with five walkovers.

Coco Puffs served for the match and still lost it 8-6 in the decider. :lulz2: She got to the QF last year. Her ranking will tumble...

Time for Ca$h to dump her

Svitolina could not even wait to get ousted by Mom Serena. Instead she choose to be shown the door by Mom Maria. :facepalm:

p.s. Apparently, there are six moms in the draw.
