Why Bianca is confident against Pliskova. Handshake was shady.

Nothing wrong with being confident

A lot is wrong with arrogance. I loved how she failed to win a single game after claiming that she would beat a Pliskova on one leg because she misses a lot.
Why does a player with so much talent has to make herself so unlikeable....

It does seem within bounds of a private convo between player and coach. Did you see the video awhile back between Ostapenko (pre-RG win) and her coach while playing none other than Pliskova? She was ranting, threatening to forfeit, because she hated playing her. If I can find it I'll post it. Of course, there's the video of Maria and her coach during a match against Serena in which the coach referred to Serena as a 'B' and Maria laughed.

On court coaching has never been private: every player knows that it is broadcasted...

Kvitova makes so many errors.... on the brink of defeat now (downs 6-3 *3-0)

Barty wins the group in this scenario, and the winner of Bencic-Bertens would play Svitolina...

So the SF will be:
Barty vs the winner of Pliskova/Halep
Svitolina vs the winner of Bencic/Bertens

The YEC has lost its value. It's no longer more than a small tournament no one is watching.
