Wimby.....Day 1Attached is the schedule for Monday: http://www.wimbledon.com/en_GB/scores/s ... index.html Andy opens on Center followed by........ Petra K. v Larsson (a lst for Petra at Wimby, but due to other circumstances), then Stan the Man v Medvedev Venus opens on Ct. 1 v Mertens, followed by.... Rafael v Millman then, Konta v Su-Wei Hsieh Imo, other matches of note: Ladies: Barty v Svitolina Vondrousova v Peng Giorgi v Cornet Sabine v Konjuh Vika v Bellis (a match w/o a ct. assignment to start after 5 p.m.) same for Navarro v Bouchard Men: Cilic v Kohls Verdasco v K. Anderson Yet, there are a lot of good matches on the docket that I haven't mentioned. However, my viewing for Monday will be: Venus Petra K. Osaka v Tormo Sabine v Ana K. Barty v Svitolina at some point and Ostapenko's match with Sasnovich Good slate for tomorrow with ESPN carrying the event in HD... Some R1-matches are supposed to be quarter finals or semi-finals....#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#Svitolina vs Barty: 7-5 (first set)....#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#And Bary was leading 5-3, and then Svitolina stepped up and showed why she is seeded #4 (and not Barty).#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl#Now imo, both should be top10, and Barty may even be better, but she is not yet the finished product. A rough diamond. A bit more experience, and this set was hers. But if you serve for the set, and she hits a DF on BP, then that is a sign that she is not yet able to produce her best when it matters.#ed_op#br#ed_cl#in the next game, Svitolina was trailing 15-30 and faced a BP, but she produced a series of winning serves when it mattered.

"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" Previously saw a bit of the match with Janowicz... Jerzy won, and there were glimpses of the attractive tennis that he showed years ago. So maybe there will come an end to this string of injuries and bad luck.... "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" That was a really good match, and Svitolina beating Barty 7-5 7-6. Last games were messy - again Bart losing the plot... I started to count fr0m 5-5 30-30 o, Set#2: Svitolina had 15 points from that point onwards: 1 winner, 1 winning serve, and THIRTHEEN UE's by Barty.... Ashleigh with too many wild shots, and trying to force it. Winners: 26 for Svitolina, 40 for Bary... but Barty also had 41 UE's. Svitolina went 19 times to the net, and won a bit more than 50% of those points... Barty went 35 (!) times to the net, but lost a bit more than 50% of those points.
