YES !!! Cheater Maria ousted in R1.... Disgusting audience, disgusting line-judges. Just look at the last game when Maria served to stay in the match. Rybarikova no more challenges remaining (she had to use them all the time as the judges could not be trusted), and that first serve from Maria was obviously out but Rybarikova could not challenge anymore (and when they showed it to the viewers, it was indeed well OUT), so Maria got the Ace (15-0). And that audience booing her for (CORRECTLY) questioning this error. Ugh... And at 15-30 they almost pulled the same stunt, but the line judge did call the serve out after some doubt (making Maria challenge so the whole world could see that the linesman should NEVER have doubted to call it out) No more Maria for the rest of the season "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it"
Can't help but recall, as I've done countless times, Venus' cryptic response a few years ago to playing Maria, "Ummm, let's just say it's the intensity."

Decent win for Kasatkina - first "experience" with her new belgian coach did not end in disaster 4-1 up in the first set, then a Pavs-comeback who ultimately served for that set (4-5*), but Daria managed to take it anyway in the TB. Second set a shaky start with Pavs winning her first service game, and Daria then struggling to keep hers, but after that initial slow start, it was all Daria who ended with a virtual bagel 7-6 6-1. Two faves playing each other, but was rooting more for Kasatkina... "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it"
Kasatkina into QF; next is Sasnovich.... Gavrilova is out, so Daria may well win the whole thing. In that case she enters the top20 and could evne qualify for Zhuhai if I am not mistaken "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it" watched the Rybarikova vs Sharapova match last night on youtube.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#Ryba should sue the line judges ... What they were doing should not be allowed.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#Forcing Ryba to replay points she'd already won. Gifting Sharapova points when the balls were out... that's like a Russian Mafia at work.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#Pova prepared a long post-match speech.... But Ryba said "no, you are not giving any speech today... No book promotion in this stadium either. Go home to New York, Los Angeles, Miami... Get out of here.. You are a fake Russian.." lol lol Last edited by Ace2Ace on Oct Wed 18, 2017 6:55 pm, edited 4 times in total. <font color=brown>@ <b>Ace2Ace</b>:</font> Yes, as I posted previously, it was blatant cheating. Things like that simply makes people root aganst her. "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it" Kasatkina 5-1 up in the first set, serving for the set. Then wheels came of... Still 5-4 in the lead, but on serve. Good talk from her new coach a minute ago.... Harsh, but positive too.
