Galfi has a nice looking game. I can't remember why she hasn't been doing much on the pro tour, but maybe she just needed time to adjust a la Badosa and she'll make a push up the rankings this year. I'm certainly not seeing a big reason why she can't and shouldn't be ranked higher watching her play Danielle today.

Also, super cute kit. I'm not a pink person at all, so my preference would be for a different color combo, but still, very cute.

You can tell I don't watch her matches that often! :lol:

Galfi is serving for the match at 6-4, 5-4.

Galfi serves out the match vs Collins to love. It's the little things that are causing Collins problems. She can still hit the ball through the court but her foot work and mental agility aren't there atm. TBH I've never heard of Galfi before.

Don't remember much about her, but she was a highly ranked junior at one point. She won at least one GS Junior title.

Kovinic breaks Raducanu to go up 2-0 first set.

Raducanu breaks back to 15.

Looking forward to see what Rebecca Marino can do in her first match.

Didn't even realize she was playing right now because her match isn't on TC. I'm gonna call that growth and I'm happy we're finally here.

I'm watching on my tablet via the App. Who is TC showing from the WTA?

Raducanu should win this match. I don't think Kovinic has played much lately not that she has either...

No one (as usual). Ben Shelton is playing Fognini right now. I have many objections to TC's match selections, but this is one where it makes sense, so no complaints this time around.

I don't think she's been winning much, but Kovinic has been playing recently. Emma hasn't played since the Aussie Open.

How many games has Emma won in a row now? I see she has won the 1st set 6-2.

Now it looks like she has started the 2nd set the same way she started the 2nd set in a 0-2 hole.

And has just broken back.

It would be a real shock if she rolls off another 6 games and mirrors the 1st set.
