I notice Jo is playing with Elina Svitolina in the doubles. 1st round opponents are D.Seguel(Chile)/ S. Errani(It). Heather not playing doubles. 


 Let's hope Errani keeps off the tortellini before the match.

This event already  has a quota of withdrawals for various reasons so plenty of lucky losers. Putintseva, Linette(who was 4th seed)  and Flipkens have gone. I have counted 9 qualifiers needed. Funnily enough in this competition multiple grand slam winners  Venus Williams and Kim Clijsters are not seeded, but then it is 2020  and not 2010.

 I wonder if that choice by Jo is anything to do with Andy Bettles ?

Looks like Svitolina's fifth doubles tournament since Jan 2019 - with a 0-4 record

L16:- Sara Errani (ITA) / Daniela Seguel (CHI) CR740 (464+276) [WC] v Johanna Konta (GBR) / Elina Svitolina (UKR) CR1428 (290+1138) (Singles 14+7 !)

 Well at least Jo helped Elina to break her duck. I picked up from instagram that Jo/Elina had played doubles at the 2017 Canadian Open where they lost in a champions tie break to Klepac/Martinez Sanchez. As an aside I think this was the tournament where Jo's 2017 singles started to go adrift. In her 1st match after Wimbledon she played Makarova who she had a 4-0 winning record against and after being a set and 5-2 up lost 2 match points and later on the match. The rest of 2017 apart from Cincinnati disintegrated  after that.

Am just checking Jo's doubles results and have found she played with Elina at Brisbane 2018. Not very distinguished as they lost 2-6 2-6 to Bertens/Schuurs.

Heather making mistakes today, and getting frustrated. First set to Maria in the tiebreak.

Umm heather lost the first set 7-6 and I honestly have no idea how that has happened.
Maria is also slicing every single ball so its pretty ugly tennis

 Judging from Errani's results in the last few years she seems to have been off the tortellini for quite a while!

God this is painful to watch. 4-1 becomes 4-5 and Heather smashing racquets in frustration. Maria is such an annoying player.

Only switched on for last game does Maria always slice every shot?
