Kostyuk takes the title in Austin. A solid win.
Another "stagnating" player makes a statement this week. I hope she continues to rise.

She played well at Dubai, gave Bencic a fright..she was doing ok now she has done well..even at the AO, she beat Anisimova and lost only to Pegula..she has been losing only to good players like Bencic...so a bit of luck and she will go far.

Showing respect for your opponent is the #1 rule of sports. Unless your opponent has done something horrible, there is no excuse for this kind of garbage. Simply having been born in Russia is not a crime.
(For those unaware, Kostyuk has been EXTREMELY vocal about wanting all Russian and Belarusian players to be banned from the tours, and has vowed to not shake the hand of any Russian or Belarussian she plays.)

^ It's nice to see that moving in unison in doubles still works.
Notice the two of them at net (very rare these days, sadly), and both moving back at the same time.
I love that kind of doubles - it's much more dynamic - and I feel more efficient - that the silly one up, one back formation.
