I see that they put Sabine in the Grandstand today, she is moving up the ladder.
Robson vs. Li Na sounds yummy for starters.

And then we may finally get to see this:
Women's Doubles - Round 1
Sara Errani (ITA) [1] /
Roberta Vinci (ITA) [1]
vs.
Daniela Hantuchova (SVK) /
Martina Hingis (SUI)

This is the 3rd match on court 17

That is what happens when you win Kiu, no one wants to pay good money for someone who can't close the deal. Sabine will get good courts at Wimbledon because she plays well there. You can't ask someone to put you on Arthur Ashe or Louis Armstrong if you haven't shown you deserve to be there. I don't pay for losers. I pay for winners.

A-Rad took the first set from Palvy, 6-4 was the score, that match is in the early stages of the second set.

The ESPN crew is making such a big hoopla about the American

Crowd cheering for Monfils vs Isner and Big John speaking out

about not liking it.

I don't remember any big out cry when for years the crowds were

pulling against the Williams Sisters for players from other countries

The media just pulled out the old " underdog " card Even when

at times, according to the rankings, the Sister was the underdog

Come-on RJD, the sisters are never underdogs!
Who are you fooling?

Anyway, Sabine lost, she got Makarova'd.
6-4 7-5 was the final score, Sundaymorning guy had to jinx her!

Aggie won in straights but had to win a second set tie-breaker.

Sloane and Jamie are playing. Sloane is playing nice today.

I kinda enjoyed the crowd cheering for Monfils...how many times does this happen in USA ...for a crowd choosing to cheer on a person of color over a white person..
Isner looked angry:laydownlaughing

Sabine lost, and this is why she gets court 17 at best.

No, Isner was very gracious and positive about the crowd enjoying Gael's type of game. He said it was fun and you can tell at the net that they are probably friends socially.. Monfils is one of the best "showman" on the tour and always a crowds favorite regardless who is across the net. It was a good match..

Hey, Tossip.. Sloane made it to the next round.. She gets to play Serena hopefully.. God Bless her because Serena will be very focused

But she was on the Grandstand today! If she was on court seventeen, she would've won!
;)

It's not the court, it's the player.
