Leylah won the 1st set 6-2... but Navarro is in total control of the 2nd set thus far - 3-0.
Leylah's up to 9 double faults now.
Me right now

Leylah 'won'.
That was pretty sloppy from both players.
Leylah is not going to beat any top 50 players, or players with experience, playing at that level.

Yes, California weather has been crazy lately, rapidly reversing extreme drought conditions. But, San Bernardino is not near Indian Wells fwiw. Completely different areas.
I'm not saying they are directly next door, but unless I'm doing something wrong in google maps, it's only 76 miles from Indian Wells to San Bernardino? So snow in the mountains above SB and rain in the other seems related with the craziness they are getting? Indian Wells is just south east of Palm Springs, right? On I-10?
I'm not saying that the weather over almost all parts of Southern California can't be related. But Google Maps can't tell you much besides distance. So I'm telling you as someone very familiar with California, San Bernardino and Indian Wells are definitely not areas considered near one another. San Francisco and Sacramento are a similar distance from one another, but they are two completely different metropolitan areas with two different weather patterns. Los Angeles is closer to San Bernardino than any of the other distances mentioned, but again, not considered "near" one another and vastly different cities. Point being, distance isn't everything.
Indian Wells is considered near Palm Springs, but they are different communities that do not neighbor one another.

San Bernardino, California is approximately 75 minutes NW of Indian Wells, California.

Packed house for Leylah I see.
She was also playing an American in America, which helps with the size of the crowd.
Also, it wasn't a very big court - in terms of the number of seats.
And those who witnessed the match live might be asking for their money back.

Caroline Garcia is in a tight one in the 3rd set with Dalma Gálfi. If she doesn't get it together like she had in the 1st set she might not see Leylah in the next round.
Didn't watch early in the match, but seems like Galfi adjusted well to Garcia's game and is now firmly in the match.
Not sure what court they are on, but it's full. If Caro gets through, she plays Leylah next, given how packed her match was too, they will hopefully be given one of the show courts.

Yes. And? Was there something unclear about what I wrote?
I mean, LOL, I don't know what Jazz still needs to explain?!?! Here in Chicago, we live on the North side of the city, right next to Lake Michigan. Folks most definitely closer to 75 miles away from us- the South side of Chicago, local suburbs- more often than not have distinctly different weather patterns than we do (especially many of the local suburbs, which tend to get zapped with rough weather more than we do).
So- you know- I'd tend to believe the person who lives in the same areas concerning weather patterns.
