Yes, Bethanie's piteous screams of agony could be overheard on the commentary for many minutes, very distressing. An 'acute knee injury', which Mary Pierce was recalling her own experience of on Radio 5. Wish her every possible best wishes, and hope that the prognosis is somehow better than feared.
I hope they think better of showing it on the evening wimbledon summary program on BBC.
Yes, I do too, though rather fear the prurient rubberneckers are in the majority - David Busst and Joe Theisman's mis-fortunes are amongst the highest rated sports videos.
Back to Izzy Wallace: massive congratulations to her, as today she claimed her first $25K title, in Koksijde, Belgium
Her 3rd title of the year. Probably moves her well into the top 300.

46 year old Kimiko Date announces her second retirement.
Both sections of her career were pretty remarkable in one way or another.
I think she's earned her retirement now
Will miss a player who always had a massive smile for everyone.

From Freya's tweets, it looks like she's had a wrist injury. Which is why she withdrew from the recent competitions. And may be why she was struggling before too.
However, she's tweeted herself now hitting backhands (for the first time in a while) and enjoying it.
Can't help thinking that this is where Serena Williams could put her vast wealth to some good. Whatever you think of Chritiano Ronaldo, he has history of getting involved in financially supporting stuff like this for young kids.
I hate to say it but this says a lot about what it is like to be not so well off in the States; it also says something about what it is like to be Black and living in the States but I guess I will leave it at that and not cause any controversy. I hope she finds a way forwards.
