....AND, of course, at least for now, Poor Emma. Loses the 1st set 6-2.

For once Sinner was consistent enough to win in straight. Good for preserving energy for real battles ahead.

Slipped, knee injury.
Raducanu, too, but she is playing on. Not sure if it was her knee or something else, but she slipped and took a long medical timeout.

Something is not right with a grass at this tournament... We didn't used to have so many injuries on grass.

Now a repeat of AO final. I think on this surface Sinner is even more favored, but of course for sure it is not.

Sun's short crosscourt backhand has won a lot of points today.

Re: '24 Wimbledon Day 7 Order of Play & Discussion
Been reading my posts? This backcourt style of playing on grass is too risky. And, of course, you can't serve and volley anymore, so...
You get all these injuries.

Re: '24 Wimbledon Day 7 Order of Play & Discussion
Roger and Rafa never got injured on grass, right? They played the same style mostly.

No. Roger's final match at Wimby was against Hurkacz, on which he injured himself. The injury that he could not overcome.
Serena's injury was at Wimby, on a serve. She landed awkwardly and that was it.
Delpo's knee injury was at Queens. He was unable to recover.
Rafa never got injured on grass, that I can recall. I guess he was busy getting injured on clay.

Re: '24 Wimbledon Day 7 Order of Play & Discussion
Navarro may or may not win this match, but her improvement this year is incredible. Started with fitness. Other players could do the same. Tip-top, optimum, maximized fitness should be the norm. They can control it, for the most part.
