<i>Kuzmova lost to Kenin in the final day of qualies, while Lottner won to advance to the maindraw. However, Flipkens withdrew, Viktoria was elevated to the maindraw as LL and will face Pelona Hercog. I hope that their match is delayed 'til Wednesday, she needs a day off to recharge and relax.

Yeah.. it was hard to play SF one day, run the same day to the next tournament, unpack and get ready to play another match the next day.
But that happens quite often to lower ranked players. They don't have the luxury of BYEs.

How does Kuzmova win a TB? I am not watching but thinking she is probably spraying the returns like in her SF match. Got to put the returns back in play. :) :)

Bad day of tennis for Kuzmova. Six matches in consecutive days took its toll. Had a chance to finish the lst set on serve and capitulated. Bad decision- making on many returns, citing attempts on mishits hit in the air and, instead of letting these returns bounce then finish, she elected to hit them in flight and netted them inside the service line every time. Low balls were badly returned, bending over and just reaching by lunging instead of moving her body into position to return, resulted in shots barely getting to the service line, let alone the net. Lot of bad errors (hitting long) and Pelona exploiting her with droppers and dictating the rallies for the most part. Didn't have it today physically, and game-wise......

If she's not playing qualies for Eastbourne, then she'll have ample rest for Wimby and, hopefully, a good draw.....

The missed returns are a real problem. Coach needs to work on it. Can't give away that many points.

#ed_op#i#ed_cl#Kerber lost to Riske. Of note, some PGamers picked Angie to win this event. Maybe, they want to reconsider Riske v Hercog. If so, now's the time to do so ere the bottom half of the draw begins. The top-half has started.....

#ed_op#i#ed_cl#Lottner takes the lst set from Sevastova, 6-1. Don't know if she'll prevail here in the 2nd, going by some bad tennis I've seen today from the ladies. However, if she continues to play the quality of tennis she's played the lst set, it looks promising. This girl reminds me a lot of Venus, playing at her best. A very good talent, severely underranked.....

6-1 in the first.. That's pretty lopsided. And up a break 3-2.
Must be doing something great.
