Siniakova takes out Zheng Qinwen 64 64, Zheng really needs to go back and play lower grade tournaments and get more match practice, since she has come back from her elbow surgery she really has struggled

ask Keli about Mary Jo
she's the neighborhood arse kisser. Married to Fed's Gen Mgr and believes she knows the game well enough to call these matches with any knowledge. She's OK knowledge wise, but unlike Vandeweghe, she has a slam final on her resume. More famously known for choking away a huge lead. Believe she was up a set and 5-0 on somebody famous and choked it away.

Tuesdays matches are interesting to say the least

Return of Serena Williams v Aussie youngster Maja Joint, I feel Serena will win this match up

Iga Swiatek begins her title defence against Taylor Towsend, I feel this will be a first up test for Iga, as Taylor has good solid variety in her game ( dont be surprised if Iga gets rid of Roig after Wimbledon, hearing strong rumors she is not happy with his coaching at present) of course if she manages to win, which I highly doubt she might stick with him for awhile) her serve which Fissette kind of fixed when she won Wimbledon last year, and made her play outside her comfort zone, won her Wimbledon., serve has gone done hill in a big way again, her technique is poor.

Rybakina v Boisson, I hope Elena has brought her fhand with her, its been missing and she cant afford the massive UFE that she had in her 2 previous warm up tournaments prior to Wimbledon, in saying that Boisson has been struggling, Elena should win this match

Amanda Anisinova last years finaliast has been under an injury cloud with a lower back strain? though she should be able to win against Gjorcheska

Svitolina (8) Kosryuk (12) Eala (29) might be over done too much play before Wimbledon might see her come unstuck,.though she has the abilty to win, Keys (26) Noskova should all be able to win their first round matches. I have a query on Paolini (13) she has been struggling physically with a foot injury since Roma and could come unstuck against Montgomery of the USA

In the current match Swiatek started set 1 poorly but recovered, Set 2 the same bad start but no recovery down a double break, going 3 sets now, Iga and her consistency is a huge problem at present, and Townsend is holding her own quite comfortably
Iga 1st set 61, Towndsend 2nd set 62
BTW Taylor has faced Swiatek in the first round at RG and now Wimbledon,

and Tay should have broken in the opening game of the decider. had 4 bp's. you can't let a top player off the hook when they are giving you a gift. She's not green anymore and should know better by now. If she loses, It'll be her undoing as Iga breaks and leads 4-2

Taylor just broke back now serving at 3-4, oh well that didnt last long
Iga broke and will serve for the match at 5-3

Iga wins in 3 sets in sets 61 26 63, in a error ridden game, again its the 'inconsistency' of Iga's game at present and Taylor had her chances in the final set
Iga in tears? WTH and why does she steal towels and packs them in her bag? lol!
Reason for the tears she hasnt won a 3rd set lately

so back to my original point. had she broken in game one the whole set would have been played differently. Anyway, like I said, it's her undoing and I've seen some other matches where she kind of gave the match away, like against Stearns in Austin.

Rybakina better stop these UFE which have raised its ugly head again, she should being having no trouble with Boisson, down a break in the 2nd set, won the 1st set 64
I have seen this movie before with Rybakina, fhand gone AWOL, spraying over heads?
Boisson to serve for the 2nd set 5-1
Boisson 2nd set 61
Going 3, Rybakina better address those UFE and re set her game or she will be out in her first match at Wimbledon, she has a chance to become the No 1 player at Wimbledon this year, not on this Ugly performance in the 2nd set
BTW This is only Boisson's second tour level event on grass?

Rybakina lifted her game in time in the 3rd set, she had to?
Rybakina d Boisson 64 16 63

Navarro and Badosa 1 set all, going 3
Tough match as both players are solid on grass, even though Badosa has been struggling of late,
Badosa leading 4-2 in the 3rd set, Emma's ufe have been her down fall
Badosa serving for the match 5-3 broken, Emma to serve 4-5 3rd set
5 games all 3rd set
