Schmiedliva had 15-match losing streak at Slams from 2015 to 2020 until she beat Venus. So that’s why Vee is still getting WC. To help people snap their losing streaks.

I am not able to watch the match, but Tommy Paul is crushing Davidovich-Fokina early. Paul looked awesome in the final three sets against Safiullin, but that made me wonder if my eyes were playing tricks on me considering Safiullin's mediocre career, so I figured D-F could take him.

Nice call so far. Paul has won 9 of the first 10 games.

TRUTH. Seriously- I have been bringing this up all the time. Venus is your Gateway Drug to success. V loses to Volynets- and her results improved considerably (for awhile)....MORE significantly- Zhu come backs from a third set deficit and beats an injured V. And, look where her career is now. Future HOF Naef is next on deck....

I was fully prepared for this.

Shelton up two sets to one over Karatsev, was just now standing and talking to his coaching team. I really, really don't like this.

Wozniacki up 5-0 in the decider vs Brady. Not bad for the old lady!

I'm glad you were. I have no idea what I just watched (obviously, having watched the whole video I saw the title of the "show" but wow...)

She knows how to win and she’s in great shape.

LOL, this video was from a season of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The chick who went "how dare you" after being called "beast" used to be on the show- Eileen Davidson. She's a soap opera actress- and John and I always chuckle over this BAD Soap Opera-level, melodramatic and overly-acted silliness moment. Now, Megan gave me the opportunity to share this video with all of you.

I suspect that what Megan meant was that she was prepared for some snark from me and/or others, for her DARING to desecrate (albeit, deservedly, at least arguably) V's game.

Elise playing a solid defense and sprinkling that with a few winners. She is playing well.

Coco self-destructing..!

Mertens is evidently better than I think! Just started watching, end of first ser

Everyone laughed at me when I said Mertens would be a challenge. and that Coco's whole draw is tough. Wozniacki would be next, right? Tough.
