Halep sick too? Novak?
Halep was playing like WTA #99 .. No serve, no return, no ground strokes... That was bad.
Even simple rallies she couldn't handle.

Pliskova struggling against Kontaveit. If she prevails here with this kind of play and brings it to Bencic, she'll lose 6-2 6-2. lol lol

I always considered Bencic the one with the greatest potential of the 1997-class, and this result confirms it for me.
She hit the ball so early, takes away the time from players to move forward. Staying healthy and injury-free is her main task now. And top 10 a question of weeks? :-)

wow. Just checked the scoreboard.
Anyone watching Muguruza about to be double bageled by the young Canadian?
0-6 0-3 ... Is she injured?
or did she get the flu from shaking Serena's hand? :) :)

She avoided the double bagel... barely... 6-0 6-1 is the most shocking result of this event so far.

A would not mind Venus vs Bencic and Andreescu vs Voundrousova in the SF

Sorry Bencic. You are going home.
This new Serena called Osaka takes no prisoner. Better get your first serves in, or you are doomed. :) :)

The Bencic-train stays on track; how many top10 wins in the last two events? 6?

Winning one can be a fluke... 2 an exceptional fluke... 6 is a sign that you should be top 10 too
Now bring on Kerber and Svitolina!

Ps: has any player collected 8 top10 wins in two consecutive events?

She is doing well. She could win the whole thing. Watching Pliskova the other day, I predicted she would lose to Bencic. I was not watching today so I have no idea how boring or exciting those 3 sets were.
In the old days, Indian Wells winner had to be a real top-10.

Who was the random winner before Naomi last year? another unseeded top-50. ... I even forgot her name. She's done not a thing since that random win. This year, it will be another unseeded top-50. That will be 3 years in a row. There are not enouth top leaders in WTA as there are @ATP. But ATP has nobody in the top-50. lol lol lol. Once those top players step on the court, it's over. For WTA, the top-50 are like all top-10, taking turn beating one another.
Serena who only plays Grand Slams theses days, seems to be the only top-10 contender everywhere she shows up, making constant appearances in the later stages on those few tournaments.
