I switched to that one too (it's the only game in town at the moment). Cressy is the serve and volley guy right?

Yup. Interestingly, for a lot of the match, Cressy has been staying back during return games.

I'll look for that. Thanks.

....WELL....At least TWO of us in here are true tennis fans!! = me = ti-amie.

In typical Krecjikova fashion, she takes a medical up 6-5 in the second set with Heather Watson playing with some momentum about to serve to take it to a tiebreak - basically ices her out for her final service game.

What is pretty maddening is, Djere is 99.99% of the time serving wide and on the diagonal to lefty Cressy's backhand- and Cressy just isn't fully invested in preparing for this.

I didn't know this- didn't watch any of this match. Over and over again she does this. This kind of c r a p has gotta be addressed once and for all (many of us have said, over and over again).

Echoes of Mugu telling her "So unprofessional" during her RG run (Krejcikova's).
Yep, you want me to tell you about her sponsors? :

UGGGGGHHHHH. Crucial double faults in the third and fourth set tiebreakers led to Cressy's defeat. Cressy had one set point in the fourth set tiebreaker, but overplayed his return out on a very good (but returnable) second serve.

I wasn't able to watch much of the final set because the complete OoP for tomorrow came out. Cressy did stay on the court a long time after the match was over though.

Cressy's gotta get ready for his upcoming Challenger Tour events*. (*Escobedo will be his welcoming committee host.)

It's why I've never been able to become a fan. Unprofessional indeed.

Sad thing is, I have a lot of love for her style of game. But, not for this nonsense.

I've been unable to become a fan because every time I see her I think she looks like a completely different person. I can't tell you what she looks like, it's weird.

Saw the first set..high quality..
