Anisimova pulled out; replaced by DiLorenzo.
:(

When you keep having training injuries, it's the trainer's fault; get a new one!!

The Sisters play tomorrow. Yet, have been watching matches (Palermo and Kentucky). Yesterday, Cori's match with Dolehide was a more than decent match, Serena showed rust, but am of mind she's also pushing 40. Venus looked older and heavy, but played good, minimal-error tennis while Vika lacks power in her ground game. Thinness doesn't mean fitness, one is just thin. Vika has no muscle tone in her upper body, hasn't hit the gym, resulting in no power in her ground game. Disappointed for Vika for I duly desire to see her return to the top of the game, for she was a formidable foe ere the baby and the resulting custody issue, derailing her career. She states that she still has the desire to play, but her priority is her child. She doesn't look promising at the moment, but we'll have to see how this unfolds. Sloane is in decline for some reason and only caught a few points in her match with Fernandez.

Thanks for the info, Rex ... I just watched a few highlights off youtube. Tennis is exciting again.
Serena was in trouble against that small Pera who plays a nice lefty power tennis. I saw her (Pera) in Rome last year. She is so tiny.. looks more like a 12-year old. :)

Sorry.. I saw the thread about the draw and all, but I was not reading.. Lost the habit of following my girls.. But I am back now.. Bye Bye Corona.
Nobody should ever say again that 'made in China' is cheap product that doesn't last. Corona is proving we were all wrong.
Corona wasn't cheap.

Ace,

Yes, Serena was indeed in trouble and Bernarda had her on the ropes and should have won the match in 2 sets, but she just didn't finish.

Bernarda has given quite a few players a tussle, will give you a good match. She's 5'9 (a good height for the ladies), but thin as you say. Nice forehand that does a lot of damage, backhand is not bad either. 60th ranked (about right), she's a precise player that doesn't recklessly gift, like a Giorgi who stunk up her match with Mertens today in Prague. Purely hit or miss.
