Pegula through to the Quarter Finals and odds on to meet Sabalenka or Rybakina in the semis. There is going to be a a lot of quality on show here at the end of the tournament, I think.


 Rybakina lost relatively easily, all things considered 

Don't know how that makes Emma feel (or if she cares)

Vondrousova has been looking remarkably (and rather unexpectedly) on form 


Just shows how certain matchups favour particular players.

Of the players who made the last 16, I'd have expected Emma to beat both Vondrousova and Haddad-Maia relatively comfortably

 


 Yes, match ups and it's simply a different day so for better or worse a player is unlikely to be at quite the same level.

Yes, though to be fair, Vondrousiva has laid down two stellar matches - and against two completely different players - Paolini and Rybakina

I think her success was more down to her, than the match-up vagaries

 Agree CD. I do like Vondrousiva, crafty drop shots and all. Two great wins for her. Had Paolini pulling her hair out at one point.

Vondrousova IS crafty but yesterday hit Rybakina off the court.

Oh that was so easy for Naomi. 6-3, 6-2. I didnt even think she played her best game. Coco was pretty dire TBH.
