especially after Maddy was way down in the decider of her R2 match and then ran the table on that girl. She's playing w/ house $$ after that and blew it all against Zheng.
Maybe I am getting older but this has got to be the best looking women in a while on the WTA tour.. A few of them would qualify to make Safin''s player Playa Box. Zheng, Parks Kostyuk, Kalinskaya, Potapova and Rybakina

Yes Sir, She has that easy power and she is in a good happy place with herself.. How can anyone dislike her unless Slapalenka is your girl.

Amazing that the 2 players that could get me to watch women's tennis are having "psych" problems at the same time! I thought I might be saved by a return of fellow Canadien :face-with-hand-over-mouth: Bianca Andreescu, but it's doubtful she'll get back to the form that got her '19 US Open! She's barely surviving ITF Circuit & qualifying just to drop her 1st Rd. matches! I used to love her style & fire! :astonished-face::angry-face::anxious-face-with-sweat::fearful-face:

Maybe she can also timeshare the same sports psychologist as Maddy

I'm gobsmacked. Did anyone watch this disaster in real time? I just watched the highlights. Iga just seems to crumble under pressure these days.
Don't be. She has serious issues when anyone executes 1 or 2 winning strategies against her:
1. Pepper that FH w/ power
2. Return her weak 2nd serve w/ interest

Works every time. It's one of the reasons Osta has a winning record over her. The secret blue prints is a secret no longer. She will be hard pressed to win another major unless she gets a headcase in the final like Amanda last year. I wouldn't be surprised if Roig isn't sent packing soon.

Coco teaches the teen a lil lesson and sends her home in straights on Ashe.

I think would rather go kayak across the Niles River than facing Ostapenko again.. It almost seems personal..

She had couple of set points on her serve and still couldn't close it. She sprays errors under pressure and easily gets frustrated.

Saba had better come with her A game tomorrow.. This Czech lady Noskova is hungry and looking to get paid even if the bank is CLOSED..
Agreed. Noskova is pumped up after the Wimbledon title and is playinng on a high level. She is one of the best servers on WTA right now.

Saba wins in a nail biting 3rd set TB. Noskova had a costly loss of serve at 4:3 lead in 3rd. She served 18 aces today. Overall good match.
