Garcia appeared to get injured during her match. Not sure if it's serious, but her play was noticeable at lower level than it was at the start. Some are saying that it is an abdominal injury, but haven't seen anything confirmed. She left the court for her treatment so it wasn't as clear as it otherwise may have been.

I know ON is designing new shoes specifically for Swiatek and she was wearing an ON kit but it appeared she was wearing Asics shoes today.

Ons (not the company) retired with a calf injury against Iga. Seems that her streak of bad luck continues, with the injuries.

An important win for Iga over Aryna to defend her Stuttgart title. H2H is now 5-2 in favor of Swiatek. Didn't have her serve broken today (1 BP).
13th WTA title in her 16th title.

It was high octane and enjoyable to watch.
Not sure where it ended up but Iga's 1st serve percentage was ridiculously high

3 & 4 is a one sided score against Aryna. Obviously I could not watch the match, but the stats make it look like Iga was never in danger.

Do we know what Porsche they get? I assume the Taycan (the EV) but I can't find anything about that.

if you read Coco's own statements, she is saying exactly what I am saying, that level of self-awareness does her credit...it means she will be able to turn things around. Except for the technical error on her forehand, which is easy to correct by some coach who works on her footwork. This kind of flaw is easier for an external observer like me, or anyone who knows tennis, than for Coco herself to see. She doesnt seem to have realized what her problem is. Hope she does, soon.JTContinental wrote: ↑Sun Apr 16, 2023 6:54 pm<heavy eye roll> what I actually said is that you don’t need to dunk on her in literally every tennis-related thread on the the forum, which you are doing yet again in this backhanded fashion.ashkor87 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 11, 2023 4:16 ami have been warned not to criticize Coco - there is a law against it, apparently.. so I will say only this - she had a very good draw at RG last year.. indeed, when I saw the draw, I said she is going to the semis (didnt expect Trevisan to be her semi opponent, so didnt say finals!) - you can check if you like on last year's forum.ponchi101 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 10, 2023 3:36 pm Swiatek? A given. No refutation there, with only one caveat: last player to defend a slam title was Serena at Wimby ('15-'16). So, sure, she will be the favorite. But not at 75%.
Sabalenka. 3 times R32 at RG. That is her best showing. But she has won Madrid, at that altitude (ha!) of 600 mts. Sincerely, don't see her doing much.
Ons. Sure, why not? She likes the surface, and seems to be back after yesterday's win.
Samsonova. You have your soft spot for her.
Krejcikova. I say she will be the second best player of the season.
Rybakina? See you on grass, my dear.
Bencic? Nah, she will do fine, and will be a force in the smaller 500's.
Coco. She is the RG RU from last year. She will do better than you expect. Repeating that final will be tough.
Dark horse. Mademoiselle OTHER. Get ready for some unknown players winning something big (not a 1000).
