#ed_op#i#ed_cl#Kuzzy wins the 3rd set breaker. If Marketa didn't have the back problem...... Yet, it is what it is. Marketa a promising young talent, her future well lit. #ed_op#/i#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#

Babos won a set? Shocking! I know it's their first meeting so that might be the reason.

#ed_op#i#ed_cl#Petra M. loses to Aggie, 6-4 7-6. Tight match by score, yet frustrating to watch Petra M. blow this opportunity. The better player for me between the two, but skipping New Haven and only having 2 matches since Wimby contributed a lot to her dismissal today. When you don't maintain consistent tourney play, the player will lose rhythm and timing in one's game, ala Destanee Aiava, which contributed significantly to the lack of execution in Petra's game today. Down 4-5 in the lst after breaking Aggie didn't hold serve and dfed the lst set away. Recovered from 1-4 in the 2nd to tie by finally driving her ground game and serving much better to throw away the breaker with poor execution at the net and missing from the baseline. Irritating to watch a player, especially a fav, lose a winnable match......

Kvitova looks mighty today.... If she can play like that, there will be trouble in dog house.

I hate that zverev lost but I like Coric anyway... and he played really well today.... I hope he can make use of the open bottom half of the draw (thanks to Murray)
