Fun match between Coric and Zverev - Zverev dominated on serve in the last set but Coric was mentally tougher in the TB. 75 36 76.
Kyrgios was injured or something and barely put up a fight vs Gasquet, lost in 56 minutes. Shame, Kokkinakis - who was reportedly displeased about getting dragged into his bff's antics - would have awaited in R2.

v impressed with bencic beating kerber in straight sets, thought they'd be a comedown from last week.

feli lopez takes out rafa
― johnny crunch, Friday, 21 August 2015 01:42 (eight years ago) link
Rafa losing to Lopez off grass, the decline is even more real than I thought.
Schmiedlova's win over Radwanska in R1 was a beautiful masterclass, it's so nice to see a player peak like that. Her BH is a gorgeous shot and she can do so much with it. Even out-dropshotting Aga too. No surprise to see her in the SF, wouldn't be surprised if she beats JJ as well (against whom Pliskova gagged horrifically - she's so emotionless that it doesn't seem like she's nervous, but those DFs and errors...)
Somewhat impressed by Wawrinka scraping through given the week he's had. I tuned in to Djokovic/Goffin with Goffin up a break in the third and then Djokovic just steamrolled to the end.

bencic & Sloane w/drawing from new haven sucks, I was hoping to see them o well I understand for sure

murray is showing some nice scrapping
― johnny crunch, Friday, 21 August 2015 21:58 (eight years ago) link
It must be hard for Serena to motivate herself to start well against Ivanovic when she knows that even if Ana wins a set, the collapse will be inevitable and absolute.

I remember doing those fed service returns against one of my buddies who had a terrible second serve, which resulted in him almost killing me with a tennis ball

I will be surprised if Kyrgios gets more than 10 games.
Kvitova trolling her fans by winning a couple of matches a row and facing her pigeon friend in the New Haven final. Out in R1 of US Open, then.

The way Bencic has turned round her h2h vs Wozniacki is beautiful.
2014 Istanbul R1, 06 062015 Indian Wells R3, 64 642015 Eastbourne SF, 30 ret.2015 Toronto R2, 75 752015 Tokyo SF, 62 64
Third Premier final this year for Bencic and I'd say she's favourite over Radwanska.
― lex pretend, Saturday, 26 September 2015 07:50 (eight years ago) link
Radwanska is not messing around here. Winners everywhere!

I've only just noticed that the ATP250s have a 28-player singles draw. The top four seeds go straight into the last sixteen? What kind of bullshit is that? Four matches to win a title? When did this happen?
In MY day everything was best of nine sets, 256-draw and you didn't even get a week off for Davis Cup, you just played those matches *at the same time*.

Thiem's Umag title was my favourite 250 title run this year. R1 bye, R2 retirement, QF retirement

the WTA end of year is turning into its traditional clusterfuck, as well as everyone being injured/fatigued/absent somehow no one managed to notice that Luxembourg, the final tournament that's meant to count to YEC standings...ends after the YEC starts because it has a Sunday final. So points won't count. This particularly screws over Bacsinszky, who's in 10th place (effectively 9th with Serena out), 20 points behind Pennetta, but has only got Luxembourg scheduled
The alternate YEC this year is like a consolation tournament for the 9-20 ranked players, new depths of pointlessness there. I can't imagine Venus hanging around in China to play it and even Aga is whinging
― lex pretend, Monday, 12 October 2015 11:32 (eight years ago) link
Well the amount of points on offer at that consolation tournament is mind-bogglingly large. Where else would you have access to that many points without one of the top eight being there to stop you? Such bullshit.

Federer did not look like he gave a fuck losing in R2 of Shanghai to... Albert Ramos-Vinos. Obviously. Last time they played, he got three games in a Bo5.
