'24 Aus Open Day 9 Order of Play and Discussion

[Owendonovan]

Svitolina with a medical time out 2 games in. I doubt she finishes.

[skatingfan]

Svitolina has retired at 0-3 in the first set.

[Owendonovan]

And she's done. Sad.

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

[skatingfan]

Yastremska def Azarenka 7-6(6), 6-4

Not sure when it happened, but basically her back was giving her a problem, and she couldn't continue.

What a strange outcome I'm waking up to...

[jazzyg]

No one should ever be surprised when Azarenka loses a set or a match.

Since I like Ostapenko despite her issues, it's a shame Azarenka gets up for her every time they play and served incredibly well in their third-round match. The real Azarenka returned tonight, like when she was up 3-1 in the second set and asked her box to tell her effing something to help as she was early in the process of losing five games in a row. She gets tight and frustrated at the slightest issue and basically falls apart even if she keeps trying.

[Suliso]

I'd like to see now Noskova vs Zheng SF.

[ptmcmahon]

I turned on after Bills lost to find azarenka up 3-0 in the 2nd set

Much audibleness

Glad I didn't check on this thread before I finished watching the football game
