Really tough way to end it for Kenin - a double fault on match point in the tiebreak.
She put up a good fight, and with the intensity returning.
Welcome back, I hope.
And Stearns wins the 1st set 6-4 over Andreescu.
Interesting....

I didn't see your post!
Seriously I thought Stearns was in control of the first set but wasn't sure she'd hold her nerve.

Bianca came out looking like she was going to take it to Stearns going up a quick break and then her opponent picked up her game. Stearns has a really good game and if Bianca doesn't step it up even more she is going to be out in straight sets.

Kenin also double faulted on match point. I saw Kenin leaving the court and she was crying. They said she played really well in the match.

Bianca evens the match up at a set a piece. 4-6, 6-4.

An older friend of mine plays and follows tennis, but he doesn't bother with any of the gossip or details, etc.
He always has a good sense of humour...
He's watching the Andreescu - Stearns match, and just sent me a message asking
"Why is Andreescu wearing that telephone cord on her arm? Any idea?"

Jabeur is in a little trouble vs. Frech.
6-4 Frech 1st set.
Jabeur just broke for 5-4 in the 2nd.

The plastic hair tie is nothing more than a good luck charm for her.
