BTW,
Serena faces Maya Joint young Aussie in her first round singles match, I cant see Joint giving Serena trouble
Projected to play Eala in round 2
Projected to play Iga in round 3
Serena really needs to be leary of the drop shop. I would say it’s will be her Achilles heel . That’s why I would recommend mixing in some serve and volley just get comfortable coming forward to the front court instead of being force by her opponent if that make sense.

Congrats to my girl Zeynep for punching above her weight.

And a rule change suggestion. Any time someone wins against an opponent that has a higher rank, they get bonus points in addition to the points that they would get regularly for reaching the next round. A bit extra incentive.

As always Naomi Osaka is a specialist in surprise entrances - I liked her this year in a special kimono

She won her match in 2 sets and a normal outfit. 6-1 7-5 - nice to see her again

Sorry I think she needs to quit with these over the top coats, she had to have a normal out fit as Wimbledon has strict codes of dress

Upsets so far,
WC Chwalinska had a bad fall on the grass and hurt her ankle, was leading 2 sets and sad to say lost 62 in the 3rd set
Li (28) lost in 3 sets to Sonmez

Saba looks okay to me for her 1st round match, I mean her opponent hasnt the weapons to hurt her
I am more interested in watching Andreeva v Linette match which has just started

Tjen d Fernandez (22) 61 76 (3) my Canadian friend Shirley said to me she thinks Leylah should get another coach than her dad, she has stalled in terms of her advancement?

Nice first round win from Gauff 62 61 over Korpatsch

Andreeva comes through in a tricky match 75 64 over Linette
