I hesitated selecting Osaka. Dang, should have stayed away. Putin's girl got her number.
And my Skan takes an early hit again.
Going straight to Disctrict RU90. :( :( It's so hard to get out of there when one lands there on day 1. lol lol ...
What happened to the District's Mayor any? Hope he is in good health and enjoying tennis somewhere in Siberia. :)
:lol: :lol: did u miss the memo on Putin's girl?

No I didn't. It did cross my mind that Putin's girl might down her again. But I thought Osaka was ready for revenge.
I am watching the match right now. 2-1 Osaka leading and she is playing some amazing tennis.
That dress was made for 7 matches and a trophy. :)
She is glowing in it. So beautiful. Too bad we won't see her again on the green grass.
Why couldn't she play the whole match the way she is playing in this first few games. Never seen her dominate the net like this. Got to keep it up.

I was surprised to see that only three of us had Thiem. And now he's a first round casualty.

Pass the gruel ...
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

I didn't do my homework on Thiem and grass. Three 1st-round exits in 6 events. Serves me right.
