Slow, sleepy start for Sloane, down a break in the 1st....but also it's oppressively hot...was already 80 degrees at 9am with an ungodly humidity.

I do not understand this strategy. Why play moonball w/ somebody who can hit droppers at will?

Isn’t it relative? She just finished playing Sharapova, and with the Vikas etc on the tour it’s not as if she hasnt played dozens if not hundreds of “noisy” matches.

It's as if she didn't go back and watch last year's match to learn anything new on approaching this girl. This is the same thing the girl did last year. She hit dropshot after dropshot. That's her game, that's how she plays. She took Pova out last year doing the same exact thing.
