^ You're also the one who blatantly called Isner a 'racist', which is a huge accusation (and one that Isner's good friend James Blake, who knows him far better than you do, would surely object to).

I rest my case about judgmentalism.

Iga has lost her bearings, but Bianca has been very solid the last 4 games (duh, obvious). But this smells like 3rd set, and it might be a good one.

Nice tiebreak between the two Brits.
It went the way of the younger.

Man, did I jinx that.

No need to fill in for @suliso when he's not here.

Bianca played a very good match, still not where she was, but certainly better. It'd be great if her body would allow her to find her previous form. Seems like the serve is one of the things that's a difference and she certainly had shoulder injuries, so not surprising.

Kasatkina's difficult start to the year continues - out to Gracheva in straight sets.
Gracheva, unlike Kasatkina, is impressing people thus far this year.

[ashkor87]

something has been wrong with Kasatkina for a while now.. wonder what, and, more important, hope she gets over it soon.. the game needs her variety and creativity..

Could it be her cruelly homophobic home country hates homosexuals and invaded a neighboring country preventing her a safe return and that is weighing on her?

How do you know James Blake's inner thoughts and feelings? Having a black friend doesn't make someone not a racist.

Strangely enough for a 2 time Wimbledon champion, kvitova is really quite good on this kind of surface..but if pegula gets enough balls back...who knows. I think Kvitova should win, 55% probability I would say.

I looked up their H2H, 3-1 Petra. If Petra is on an upswing, as she seems, I agree, she should pull through.

Of course, who knows, after that bizarre Ostapenko match.

[ponchi101]

We know her best results have been her two W's, but she has good records in the other slams. 1 F at the Aussie, 2 SF at RG. The fact that she is good on grass does not preclude her from being good on other surfaces.
I will take Pegula, though. The consistency can get to somebody like Petra, who can go into a few funky games now and then.

Of course, this forum is not representative of other locations, but while we totally accepted her decision, who knows what the feelings are back home. If she loves her country and now finds herself unable to even go back, it might be a terrible position to be in. And very hard to play under those circumstances.
