Fair points, I don't say she is great, just very good..
I haven't picked any Russian players for greeenacres bcos there is still a chance they won't get uk visas!

Btw she has just done what you consider difficult .winning a tournament back to back,!
Last year she thrashed Sabalenka 6-0 in the second set .it takes more than a just a good player to do that

Ashkor, I will assume you are joking here, but, to be clear, nobody here has made fun of you. We have had a conversation about Alexandrova, in which you have repeatedly backed her up (and you have the complete right to have your favorites) and all we have said is what Skating says above: she is a good player, top 30 and a lot of other accomplishments, but we have a different view of her quality. That's all.
Remember. If you claim she is now a great player, because she won one tournament, then somebody with a more belligerent attitude could, the next time she losses early in any given tournament, turn that table on you and call her an awful player. I would appreciate a more balanced perspective.

And, here I am making fun: if you are so high on her, why didn't you pick her for your Green Acres team? Hey, you chose Giorgi over Alexandrova! If you own the horse, might as well ride it, right? ;)
I can point out specific posts but I have decided not to escalate it.

Griekspoor had plenty of chances to roll over, especially when he broke to serve for 2nd set and instead got broken.
Good resolve out of him down the stretch
