Krejcikova and Siniakova were dumped quite unceremoniously from the doubles tournament today, losing 2&3 to Vondrousova/Strycova

This was a slow burn, but delightful once I figured it out

Re: '23 USO Day 5 OoP & Discussion
Forehand technique. I don't see them similar at all.
You think Wozniakci has a good serve? I think she breaks the 100 MPH mark once or twice a match. Coco's serve can do some damage.
I don't think Coco has a great backhand. For that matter, Caro has a very good BH when she is on the defensive, but it is not as if she will dictate with that stroke during a point, for the simple reason she never dictates a point.
Caro is a retriever that counter punches when the other player starts dictating. Coco is more aggressive.
As I said, I really don't see them in any way similar

Re: '23 USO Day 5 OoP & Discussion
I guess it is in the eyes of the beholder! I have been saying, since I first saw Coco, that she is too much like Caro, needs to fix her forehand and get more aggressive.
Coco's technical problemon the forehand reminded me immediately of Caro's forehand.

I saw the score for the second set, and said "he will win in five". Went to sleep.
Woke up this morning and didn't even bother to check the tennis news until I got here to the forum. I was with JT.

They mean when she sees she's on screen she pretends she's watching good tennis.

You're talking about Mrs. Bieber of course. She's looking for herself on the jumbotron not at the tennis.
