RE: Week 40 - ITF ($10K) - Antalya, Turkey - Hard


It's worth noting that although the score now shows 6-4 5-7, all of the accompanying stats do not reflect the number of points and games that would have been required to fill that scoreline.
It doesn't even make sense if only one or other of the sets had been reported - presuming that there is some delay in the feed of the stats and that they are somehow independent from the score data, and how they are transmitted.

Just a caution about this score is all.
We'll see soon enough.

Quite right Ali - I think I was a little over enthusiastic :::(((

It now says Jess lost 5-7 0-6

Which is far more in keeping with what one might have anticipated, but a shame . . . I blame ITF for leading us on . . .

Perhaps Jess had a set point at 5-4 in the first which was then over-ruled or the umpire pressed the wrong button, mistakenly giving the set to Jess and then couldn't go back and correct it. When the set continued and Jess ended up losing 7-5 the only option was to enter the score in the set 2 column...

That's my theory anyway.

And it's NOW been changed to 4-6 7-5 6-0 !!!!!

Which actually IS a tremendous effort and well done to her . . .

CD it's back to Jess losing. Josh's theory seems pretty plausible to me.

Yes. My comment had nothing to do with Josh's theory (perfectly plausible) but the score of the match. We'd always had Jess as losing but the score has shifted at least three times and it's just nice to see that she obviously came very close in the second to a big upset. The fact she didn't isn't a surprise - the surprise is that she was even in with a good shout.

L16: (LL) Jessica Simpson WR 1186 lost to (2) Katerina Kramperova (CZE) WR 400 (CH 314 in 2013) by 4-6 7-5 6-0

I agree, great effort given the ranking difference (assuming the score showing now is correct!)

This new score still doesn't tally to the stats.
Also in live score, notice how the first set value for both players is in gold - where as usually, only the winner of each set has the gold number.

There are only 2744 score combinations possible for a 3 set match (not accounting for theoretically infinite TB scores, just 76 or 67).
I guarantee one of those is right

The next opponents being pair of second-person plural personal pronouns, offers the chance for all sorts of Abbott & Costello, 'Who's on First' styled 'hilarity'.
