I expect a couple of upsets..my money is Jovic pulling the upset

Pegula went out in the 1st round last year still my money is on Pegula to win this match up b

@britbox Any thoughts on Rybakina ..Did her lousy effort vs Mertens surprised you ?

I didn't see the match (haven't even seen the highlights) - but the score surprised me.

I strongly suggest you take a few parasols before your watch the highlights MEH

Martina is giving some good tennis strategies on the ESPN app coverage of the Peguls vs Jovic match..she is so good and unbiased

Jovic winning would be better for women's tennis. We know what Pegula is. She probably isn't going to win Wimbledon, even if she wins the match. Jovic has the potential to be a big star.

Go away Phil

What bloody rubbish, you and your stupid statements, have you got a looking glass into the future?
Like the time you told me that Shelton would be the next big thing to challenge Sinner and Alcaraz? LOL!
Potential is one thing, rising and being a big star is another, let Jovic have her own path, again I always sit back and watch these youngsters perform without putting too many high expectations on them

Sorry to burst your bubble, Jess won in 3 sets, if you had watch Jess in her pre grass tournaments she has been playing good grass tennis BTW, she might not win Wimbledon, though she has to be One Of The Most Consistent Players On The Tour, if you took any notice!

Muchova to the q/finals after that match against Krejcikova 75 57 63
Gosh they need to face way more often.Pure tennis talent. All the shots, all the tennis IQ, all the easy power. Loved it!

Just watching Osaka Saba. I think Osaka might finally beat Saba this year.

Don Hi,

I am surprised Osaka has made it on grass this far, first time ever in her career, lets see
I am still getting over Mertens defeating Head Case Rybakina yesterday, she was Woeful

I just started watching matches on Wimbledon. Osaka is finding her movement on grass and she looks fit. Rybakina is rarely focused for the whole GS, otherwise she would have more.

Iga said Eala served too slow and it was difficult for her to return. Looks like another headcase.

I had to laugh out loud when Iga said Eala served to slow and that was the reason she could not return, what a feeble excuse

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Osaka to serve for the first set 5-2, Saba better get her game in order in set 2 or she will be OUT
Saba will have to take the scenic route now if she wants to stay at Wimbledon
Osaka 62 1st set, though Osaka did take the 1st set off Saba when they played in Madrid, this match is far from over

me too

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Saba's fhand has gone AWOL, not her best wing, and Osaka is targeting with good results
Osaka is out hitting Saba, Saba needs to add more variety and bring Osaka forward to the net more, stop playing Big Babe Tennis

mm and Don tell me if I am incorrect but should a player keep their head still when hitting a two handed bh or is what Naomi doing ok.. I never seen a player's head move so much as hers

You are correct AP
A player should keep their head still on contact with the ball playing fhand or bhand
Watch the Williams sisters they always kept their heads 'still'

Draft kings odds are 99.1 percent this goes 3 sets.. Nobody beats the great powerful Russian in straights sets!!
