The roof was closed.
If you love serve botting this was the match for you. Woz was lucky to win one game.

Re: '24 Wimbledon Ladies Singles Draw & Discussion
A few young slam winners, like Raducanu, and Andreescu seem to have earned much more scorn than others that are a little more experienced. Maybe because people started expecting more from them, where as some of the other surprise winners … not so much?

The audio is in Polish I believe but it doesn't matter. Poots and Kader hitting the mark with their non verbal communication.
Also Iga's stalling tactics after time is called kind of surprised me.

Re: '24 Wimbledon Ladies Singles Draw & Discussion
Not in personality but in game, Swiatek is a classic schoolyard bully. When she is dominating, she is great, but when someone stands up to her, she collapses in a (metaphorical) whimpering heap.
No one is good enough to challenge her on clay and put her in the fetal position, but there is a reason she needed a sports psychologist before she started winning big.

Also, people don't know how to gauge quality by looking at someone's game, they need proof with data..which needs time.

Re: '24 Wimbledon Ladies Singles Draw & Discussion
Didn't see it but the reports of the press conference after the match ..Swiatek seemed singularly ungracious ..not a word of praise for her opponent .all about how she didn't get enough rest..sounds like Biden!

Re: '24 Wimbledon Ladies Singles Draw & Discussion
This may have more to do with Putintseva. I suspect Swiatek would find something good to say about different opponent. But Putintseva has a certain reputation and it is 100% deserving.
