Talk About Tennis 2.0

Welcome one and all to Frequent Flyer Lounge! The best place to discuss, moan, vent or celebrate (and all options in between) the results of your very capable selection of players

We have chairs, sofa's, pews, hammocks, tatami mats, chaise lounges and all other manner of seating to get comfortable in with a drink and/or snack in hand. Make the best of our multi-court coverage on the big screens, or just stare out the window at the airplanes transporting the early-exit picks to their next destination

For a second I thought this said Frequent Fryer and was getting ready to lambaste Pliskova

Which you are still perfectly free to do

To the moon Alice!

Today up to be fried... Emma Navarro.

Although to be honest, I wasn't expecting much from her anyway, she's done nothing for a long time. Plus, it felt like taking Alexandrova may have even been worse. Both of them likely only picked from a lack of A players this week.

Make it... extra crispy

As far as selection logic and feelings: I looked at the draws and was just "meh". Like, there are opportunities for sure, but which of the three finals will feature more than a single top-4 seed?

Well for the A group, there were 4 players playing and all in Abu Dhabi. So it was leave out the one you feel worst about. Although Navarro and Alexandrova were pretty neck and neck for me!
