Schwartman has modest talent but was one of the great overachievers in tennis history.

Halys is a very talented ball striker who has done nothing even remotely consequential in his career.
Completely. After Ferrer's retirement, he inherited the mantle of toughest man on tour. To me, at least.
He will be a very good coach, one of these days.

Zidansek beat Baptiste in three sets to make the main draw, avenging a loss last month.

After her run to the semifinals a few years ago, I'm very surprised Zidansek has not made more of her career. I'm not talking about her being elite--she's only 5-5--but she showed a huge forehand that entire tournament and I certainly thought she could be a top 30 player. Now she has to qualify at slams.

The parity in the WTA.
You lose three, four matches, and your ranking drops below the cutting point for most tournaments. Then, you qualify, and you draw a top seed. So you end up stuck out there playing 125's and not making enough points.
The separation between #50 and #100 is less than 400 points. That is just about three SF showings, during a year.
On the opposite side of the spectrum: Nadia Podoroska is back into the top 60. After dropping all the way below 150. It fluctuates a lot.
