You know after she wanted that 5-4 game back after serving so poorly. And she got it. Didn’t make the same mistake - missed just one first serve in four points.

Great win for her. She looks good to go up against Niemeier or Watson and than against Jabeur, but the way these matches are going I am not counting out Bouzkova.
I'm not counting out Mertens, either. Not counting out anyone at this point!
I do think Jabeur is the front runner at this point but really anything can happen and it really has so far.

Sinner is playing solid tennis. I said Alcaraz would win in 4, but he will need to totally revamp his game if he is going to pull this one out of the hat.

Before the match I thought Sinner is a slight favorite. Still think that. Alcaraz might be better overall, but he is likely on his weakest surface here.

I really only had two choices I thought going into today's picks for the SP and that was Alcaraz or Norrie. I already selected Tiafoe and I wasn't picking Djokovic. Alcaraz I thought if he won faced Djokovic in the next match and would lose that match. Norrie would have an easier path later on in either facing Tiafoe or Goffin and I could use him later. So I went with Alcaraz. It looks like most people went with Alcaraz today and only 1 with Sinner.

For me the situation was that no matter what I need Paul to lose (took him very early). Sinner, Tiafoe, Norrie and Goffin were available. Sinner seemed too risky, Norrie would likely beat Goffin/Tiafoe. So it was between Tiafoe and Goffin. I gambled on the former and now they're in set 5...

I picked Tiafoe as my first pick before I really knew how the game worked. So he was long gone. I still think Alcaraz is gonna make a good match out of this one, but really I suppose with every match in the SP from now on they will be hard.

Nah, if there is one person you do not want to learn from is me. The poster child for re-instituting straight jackets and cold water hoses in mainstream society.
You have the gist of the game by now. Let's see when luck will break your way.

The one thing I have going for me is I am a hard worker and I love learning. I am one of those kids that actually likes school. :lol:

Alcaraz has improved, but Sinner was able to nurture the first game break all the way to 2-0 lead in sets. I wouldn't say it's over yet, but coming back from 0-2 is tough.

It is not the score, is that Alcaraz seems a bit out. A bit like Iga yesterday (keeping the differences in players).
