So sad, her draw had cleared out. Hard to believe one of these women will be a finalist:
Noskova
Yastremska
Azarenka
Zheng
Kalinskaya
Paolii
Dodin
Even harder to believe now with Azarenka out!

Zheng as an overwhelming favorite? Let's see what she does with this "status".

Zverev escapes with a win in the final set tiebreak for the second time... Alcaraz not at all troubled by Kecmanovic.

Much audibleness
Glad I didn't check on this thread before I finished watching the football game :)
Ooh totally my bad. Sorry I didn't even think of that.

As for the prior Azarenka point - since her return it just seems to me that she can't string solid matches together. Two is the most, so I had a feeling she was going out today

Love Zheng but the hitch in her serve is hard to watch.

It seems to be getting worse instead of better too.

If Zheng plays at the top of her ability, she'll be there, but she's going to have to play at that level to get by Kalinskaya, who hit the ball incredibly well against Stephens and appears to have maintained that level in the next round. I have been super impressed.

Hehe... no worries. I've mostly trained myself to avoid any sports when on delay. Usually :)

Helped that I didn't really have any SP or big predictions things I wanted to keep an eye on.
