Hope really Garcia wins her next 2 matches. Would be a shame to have this pushing game in this SF.
That draw turned out to be a worthless.

Did a quick calculation... If Svitolina wins today, then Garcia is out, and Woz is in the SF
(with the winner of Halep vs Svitolina joining Woz)


Woz could only be out is we have three players with two wins (Woz, Halep, Garcia)...
1) Woz won her two matches 2-0 in sets, so both Halep and Garcia need to win all their remaining matches 2-0 too
If all win in straight sets, it depends on games won/lost.... the worst-case for Woz, is that Halep and Garcia win all their matches with 6-0 6-0... I that case, Garcia ends +18, and both Halep and Woz end with +8.... as Woz won in the match vs Halep, she would be through.

So imo, Woz HAS qualified already. I cannot make a scenaria where she does not end #2...
(and all it takes is for Svitolina or Woz to win 1 game in their last match to break the +8 ties in favor of Woz....

Gotta hand it to the women, they work just as hard as the men on their tennis but only like Rojay, they make sure to find the time to get their outfit, hair, makeup, brows, nails, etc done for every match.

Lol at Halep, World No.1. This headline says it all. When has Caroline ever 'stormed' past anyone? lol.

Wozniacki storms past Halep in Singapore Red Group

In any event, Caroline does not get enough credit for her defenses, consistency and doggedness...and not to mention professionalism as an athlete.

Garcia topples Svitolina. Didn't expect that but very happy. Can't stomach her game.
