Up early for Anisimova-Osaka and it is not disappointing. Dang Anisimova is good. Fantastic return. I don’t know if she has the belief to beat Swiatek but I think she is the one to beat in the bottom half. Would like to see her play Leylah, although I think she would tee off on the returns.

She seems to be really hard on herself. She had two beak points at 5-5, 15-40. It got to deuce and then Anisimova missed an overhead right on top of the net - it was high and she had to leap straight up and kind of stab at it. Framed it into the net. She was sooo upset. Ended up winning the game with some great returns and serving out the set, but I was worried for a second.

Ysaline Bonaventure is...dour, and also serving prison lunch lady realness in her severe black sheath dress with long sleeves

Haha! When I flipped over to the match a minute ago, I thought “oh look, it’s me!”

That's a great win for Anisimova even on clay. Hope she goes far now.

It was. She’s the one to beat in the bottom half IMO. Curious how she how she will do against a real clay-courter. Someone who won’t give her pace and will push her off the court. Also Osaka didn’t serve well today at all.

...

But maybe she wouldn't. Anisimova has one of those embarrassing retirements of the year. I think it was IW, but she played Leylah there, crushed her in the first set, served for the match in the second, had 40-0 and lost the game, then the TB 7-1 and then went to the bathroom and came out, to hand over the match. No explanation other than an injury that was nowhere to be seen during the match.
Remember she made the semis here not too long ago. 2019, I think. She lost to Vondrousova. So she likes it here.

[ponchi101]

Watching Krejcikova/Parry. Gorgeous 1 handed BH from Parry. One truly long motion, she uncoils with fantastic speed. You have to wonder how many posters of Amelie and Gasquet she has pinned on her walls. It would be perhaps a liability on grass or any fast court because the wind up is that long but, on this clay, it works. But the Ue's are piling up.

[ponchi101]

And just looked up the Swiatek score. Another 2 & 0. 54 minutes. You know by now she her training sessions are more physically demanding than the actual matches.
I said it before. The moment she gets a lead, she just starts hitting better. Totally in the mix of great players that were amazing front runners.

Had a look at her draw again and it is a lousy one. Maria Sakkari in the 3rd round... Why were we mentioning Fernandez instead?

[ponchi101]

Sakkari/Anisimova in the 3rd is bad for both. It sounds competitive and very 50/50.

Admittedly, I don't watch Sakkari very much, but I'd lean toward Anisimova in that match. I didn't even look at the draw before wishing for Anisimova/Fernandez, just thinking of the two people I think are playing the best in the bottom half. I might be unfairly overlooking Sakkari - she just doesn't register for me very much. Last match of hers I remember was the fantastic win over Andreescu at the US Open.

That's true, and part of the reason I'd like to see a rematch. Leylah is a better competitor and fitter mentally, but that match was on hard court and Anisimova should have won it. Would like to see them tussle on clay.

Anisimova lost to Barty in the French Open semis, after leading a set and a break.

Eugh EasyJet have cancelled my flight to Paris, so I’m having to travel down to London to see if I can flight from there that will get me to Paris sometime tonight. If I have to travel tomorrow I won’t be able to make it to RG for start of play, although looking at todays line up, most of the R1 matches I want to see are being played today anyway
