It's gonna be a nice YEC2019
Re: It's gonna be a nice YEC2019Great draw, with some great pairings... Halep and Andrescu never played each other, and Bianca has a 1-0 H2H against the two others. Bencic and Barty also never played against each other... I think it is rare to have 2 matches at the YEC that are first-time encounters. No idea how they will deal with each other. Best YEC in years... "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it" Re: It's gonna be a nice YEC2019Dress-wise (I usually stay FAR away from such topic, but I am in a special mood today): Top marks for Belinda and Pliskova The leather top from Svitolina would make my head turn, but the trousers make me wanna run away Halep and Kvritova: NOOOOOOO.... Especially Petra: the dress / make-up combo is a cliche of my vision of a typical Eastern European pr*stit*te... no no no no... Ps: why is Naomi wearing a wedding dress? "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it" Re: It's gonna be a nice YEC2019Indeed it is a nice YEC with no dominant player and with most of the players on the cusp of their prime (Elina, Naomi, Belinda and Ashleigh), the oldest being Petra K. and complimented with established vets like Simona and Karolina. As far as the event, from the Red Group don't know who prevails. Belinda owns Naomi, but I don't think she can dismiss Petra. Ashleigh is fluid.... Petra K......game day and the match always tells, unpredictable still even at age 29.... Yet, imo, the matchups from this group are the most interesting and will be watching this group regardless of hour. However, if TC+ is carrying same I can always watch the replays, instead of losing sleep..... From the Purple Group, I believe Bianca prevails.... Who champions? Don't know, but leaning towards Bianca. Yet, at her best Petra, but she's currently error-prone and too skinny, reducing her power to finish for her winners are down in the 20's, as opposed to the 40's and more when she had weight... Re: It's gonna be a nice YEC2019Yes, Belinda has had 3wins vs Osaka this year, but a poor H2H vs Petra. But as Rex said, Petra is not at her peak atm. Not picking group winners. Just gonna enjoy the event as much as possible "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it"
Re: It's gonna be a nice YEC2019I don't see a favorite here. Isn't Svitolina the defending champ? Re: It's gonna be a nice YEC2019Event starts on Sunday: do not forget the PGame. Rex and I have different opinions: we have 4 different winners in the first RR matches "Never argue with an idiot - they take you down to their level and then beat you on experience" "Don't wrestle with a pig: you both get dirty, but the pig actually likes it"
Re: It's gonna be a nice YEC2019Ash should wear pants not dresses. She looks slightly discordant. |
