'22 Day 5 OoP & Discussion

After Collins's loss, only four of the top 12 women's seeds remain.

Add Kvitova to Halep and Muguruza. Probably Azarenka too.

This Tsitsipas match has been pretty competitive and the atmosphere is loud. They just traded breaks in the fourth. Never heard of Kolar. This is his first Slam main draw. He has played quite a few qualies but never made it in. It's only his second main-draw match above the Challenger level ever. First was 4 years ago vs. Ferrer. He's 25.

And we may never again will, but he is playing very good tennis and the match is indeed very entertaining.
His drop shot is damn good, especially on the BH. He hides it very well.

WTF is Alona wearing? Harley Quinn's sports line?!

A fine match, that should have gone to 5. It would have been fun.

This was one of the rare instances when I wanted to watch a fifth set. Too bad, the way the bottom half is, Kolar could have had a decent shot at the final. Crowd cheering his name in appreciation.

Stef at the microphone: "Mr. Kolar was putting every bit of his body behind the ball and I'd like to congratulate him for such an effort."

Oddly, he slammed his racket to the court after he won, with a very intense angry expression. If you didn't know, you'd have thought he lost.

The crowd was not 100% behind Stefanos and Kolar blinked at the end. I enjoyed the match though and wanted a fifth set too.

I have no idea what Ostapenko is wearing.

[ponchi101]

Alona's impossibility to just hit her shots at 80% is incredible. She hits everything at 100%. Not that she has ever done anything else.
Surely, somebody could point out the problem with that.

[meganfernandez]

Cornet’s making a big show of a leg pain after an awkward slide. Maybe a groin pull. She’s limping.

[ti-amie]

Ya never know with Alizé. Maybe the crowd singing “La Marseillaise” will perk her up...

[jazzyg]

That Halep-Ostapenko consolation-draw match should be fun.

[ti-amie]

Here's a good look at that kit Ostapenko was wearing.
