Jesus Christ Serena looked like a bum today.

Red Group is a mess.

Soooooooo... Ana needs a straight-sets win vs Simona to advance and eliminate Serena?  [emoji]128531[/emoji]

Bouchard was in the wrong place at the wrong time this morning.

I have a feeling Halep won't be giving it her all tomorrow. Strategically that is the better play.

Basically.

Poor Genie. It sucks her first career match against Serena had to be after that happened.

That would be the smart thing to do. Otherwise, Serena will be out for blood. If both Sharapova and Williams miss the cut, I think just about anyone left has a fair shot of winning the title.

Looks like Woz just needs to win one set against Kvitova to reach the SFs...

Serena beat Bouchard at Cincinnati in 2013. Bouchard needs to get more weapons because she gets blown off the court by everybody that can hit as hard as she does.

 

[Sinner]

Ana fought so hard to win the 1st... and now she's outta gas.  

Anyway... now this was unecessary... 

 

[aepps20]

Props to Halep for not tanking she gets tons of respect for that.

Hell of a semi-final between Serena & Caro. Serena had a moment when she went down 6-2 in the first set. She destroyed her racquet in a way that would make Federer proud. Sucks that Caro was the only person to not lose in round robin and end up blowing a lead like that.

 

[aepps20]

What a fight. Caro had a great year

 

[Sinner]

Halep... so good... though Aga didn't really put much pressure on her in the 1st.

 

[aepps20]

Round 2 should be good.

 

[Sinner]

Eugenie Jolie...

 

[thadangerousmind]

I knew Serena would wash Halep during the rematch.

Tommy vs Andy... that was EPIC.

At the net... 

 

 

[britkicks]

Murray all but in London now sinner? IF my maths is right

 

[otakuant]

Tommy wasn't too happy about that loss...

 

[Sinner]

Murray all but in London now sinner? IF my maths is right

I think so...

 

[britkicks]

That's what I thought - unless Raonic Gregor win and get to final and Ferrer, Kei etc all go very deep and Murray goes out first round

 

[Sinner]

Is Murray playing Bercy too?  6 straight weeks!
