Halep ...

There are no words ...

:roll:
go firmly to the window
and listen with deep emotion,
but not with the whining, the pleas of the coward;
listen-your final pleasure-to the voices,
to the exquisite music of that strange procession

Halep's gone. I was afraid that would happen.
When the big ballers are not missing, she can't do much.

Losing Halep from my team, was not a good thing. But my 'weaker' 3rd picks got into R2, and that is more important: Mertens and Tsitsipas.

And Mertens has a good draw: Lapko in R2, and Strycova in R3.
And her R4 could be vs Stephens - whom she defeated a few weeks ago.

So it is up to her to deliver now. If she loses in week#1, she only has herself to blame.
