Barty out...

so we see that all these initial comments on the draw are worthless: Serena was supposed to have a tough draw, but in reality, she will get into the SF without facing a top 20 opponent.

If she does not win #24 this time, then I don't know what more she needs...

Serena's chances drop the more seeded players are eliminated. She does better the higher the player is ranked. Playing against top 10 players is best for her in this stage of the tournament. As she's said, she's motivated to play opponents who've tasted success.

The only player left in the draw that Serena has never played is Muchova.
I think at this point, she has to relax, focus and hit... and she should be alright.
She can't do a Vinci. No need to get anxious and nervous. But she is only human.. :) #24 is a big deal, specially as she is on her way back.

Surprisingly, Serena and Riske have never played each other.

Really? I assumed they had. WTA is strange. There are players that draw each other 3 times within 2 months. There should be a rule against that. lol lol

I know what you mean. Ask Naomi about that random generator. That algorithm needs to be redone by the Japanese :lol:

totally agree. Who is placing Putin's daughter in her path at every corner? not fair. The Japanese would make sure Putin's daughter is nowhere near her part of the draw. lol lol lol.. Soooo annoying that Putintseva. She ruined it for Almighty Naomi.

Serena must play very well to halt Riske who is 14-1 in her past 15 matches on grass.
