Coco and Osaka are marching towards a clash soon - who thinks Coco will win this one? I dont, for sure..

I'd put my money on Osaka.

I might in a few months, but Osaka hasn't beat anyone good yet in her return, plus Coco is 2-0 against her.

Their record is 2-2. (Including that 2019 US Open match where a gracious Naomi encouraged Coco to speak to the crowd after Coco's 3 & 0 loss.)

Osaka has to get past Mertens first, and you just never know with her. She can be a tough out, even still.

Griekspoor just submitted an excellent entry in the racket smashing contest after losing the first set tiebreak to Zverev.

[Fastbackss]

I was really enjoying this Woz-Volynets match.
Katie held on at end of second set - seemed to have some momentum. Almost broke to open third - didn't - and then the rout was on.
Going to bed with Woz up 4-0 to see if I can enact a TAT level jinx

True, but Mertens doesn't have the game to bother Osaka ...she is basically a steady player with no weapons, like Pegula...

Editor note - didn't work.

But I will say I HATE when players have the same kit.

I think Pegula hits a lot harder than Mertens. Mertens's weapons are consistency, court sense, athleticism, intangibles - plus a great backhand. I think those things can trouble an off-peak Osaka. Mertens can open the court, and she can volley.

Oops, the bootleg site I used only showed the 2 Coco wins.

[JTContinental]

Bronzetti carrying on the longstanding Italian tradition of grunting after the ball has bounced on the other side of the court.

[ashkor87]

Well, Osaka clearly isn't fully back yet..we should not have expected it...
Kerber's come-back has been impressive too, beating good players I really expected her to lose too. The court doesn't even suit her much .

[Owendonovan]

I wonder if Sakkara's delts are one of those genetic physical anomalies that run in her family. I know lifting is a big part of her fitness, but those delts are big for any athlete.

[Fastbackss]

Djokovic loses first set.
Up break early in 2nd. Tough service game. Break point - djokovic hits serve. Nardi thinks it's out - just reaches at it. Doesn't really move but return goes in. He then starts moving. Djokovic stopped. Wanted a hindrance. Didn't get it.
Nardi quickly held.
Curious to see what happens and if Novak can settle down. He is on edge of tilt

[Fastbackss]

Yeah he's channeled his anger well since then...
