Nope. Take away the 2H BH and she plays A LOT like Mandlikova. As you say, as smooth as it gets.
With Elena on a bit of a slump, I am rooting for Karo to get this.

Or, you just kinda sucked today. S'alright, wasn't't the first time, and won't be the last.
Right? Coco played a full doubles match yesterday, too.

A bit like Barty too...

Where'd you see this H2H? Cause everywhere I look it says this is their first meeting.

I think that ashkor87 was looking at the wrong Zheng.

Watson says Saba 70, Coco 73 %...Watson has been doing better lately, so I am disinclined to demur too strongly but 73 seems a bit high ..60 would be closer...

Our picks were not that bad. Aryna and Coco were out top choices, and they are in the semis. Ms. Other is represented by Maddie. We only missed Karo, whom we gave 0 points.
TATson works well, too! ;)

Sad we didn’t pick Karo given that she made the Cincy final. But she’s injury-prone.

4/12 Coco, 3/17 Muchova, W/UE. Yep, this is not a sterling match.

One of the protestors had glued his bare feet to the floor so security couldn't physically remove him! Commitment!!

Coco keeps hitting short forehands but Muchova letting her get away with it, not moving forward or anything
