The most interesting match scheduled for Monday is probably the night match on Centre Court.
I predict Maria to win that. I am so confident that I am willing to bet my house on this.

I saw Maria vs Maria at Indian Wells two years ago. The fans kept shouting "Maria!" and "Maria who?"
People got a kick out of that. As in that match, I predict the screamer will win tomorrow. Kirilenko is a great player, but can't withstand the power coming off the screamer's racquet.

I remember one Maria vs. Maria match in which K won. In that match, whenever Dominatrix
was on second serve, K used to stand 3 feet inside the base line in a threatening pose
and this invariably made Sugarpova hit a DF. I also remember the interview by K,
I think before the abovesaid match, in which she touted that she knows exactly how to beat Screampova and was so excited to describe.

Kirilenko has beaten pova a number of times ...she beat pova who was wearing some seaweed dress and Beijing.

H2H is 5-2 in favor of pova. So, "number of times" really means "not just once", I suppose.

no one really knows much about Kirilenko s form and she is no slouch on hard courts

 

[Si Si Simona]

Pink! she just lost the USO. no black mean shark mood :nono
I volunteer to slap her and curse her and make her mad She doesnt get it yet.
She changed nothing and she left the fight at home.

US Open 2014 begins.
First matches started.
Angie on Grandstand facing Pervak.
More interesting is Wozniak vs. Nara on court 13
Radwanska and Fichman going at it in Armstrong Stadium.

Simo just arrived on center court.

She's not going to wear black in the middle of the NY sun. Most players have a day outfit and a night one. She'll likely wear the black one at night.

No. She just loves to feel pink. Its lost
The success made her soft in the head.
She probably found technical reasons for her sugarpova lose. She didnt check her attitude.
Technique is not enough and wont give her anything here.

And guess what, her opponent wears black

 

[Si Si Simona]

Bad start of the match, and no hair bun, no business like fighting attitude, too much "pleasure"...
She got this event all wrong...

 

[Si Si Simona]

Simona, start being aggressive. Its all in your head. Be a fighter ffs. Enough with the "fun".
Its SPORTS. Not a dance.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

So....
Who is doing the garment thread?

 

[Si Si Simona]

Yes! she put the bun back and started working she starts to get serious and leads 3-1 now
Drop that strawberry pink nonsesne Simo! Masha will just drug you with her sugar candies and then kick your @rse

 

[Si Si Simona]

So....
Who is doing the garment thread.

garment is mood. thats the whole thing. Its all in the details, watch those details.
Simona either doesnt care or she wants to take it easy. It will not work. I hope she gets a spank or something to wake up.

 

[kskate2]

It's my thing isn't it, Kiu? I'll do one later today.

You must explain what each colour means as well

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Aga takes the first set easily 6-1
Nara and Aga take first set 6-2

Simo and Petko have tight first sets on hand.
