A bad day at the office, but I don't think any of them were favorites to win.

Katie said she has been making adjustments to her serve, which has had a much broader impact on her play. I hope she takes a bit of time off, maybe plays some events out east where the courts suit her, and then a decent off-season break.

 Maybe she wishes she has signed up for Guadalajara with Sonay, Fran and Heather?

Well that was a rotten day.

Katie sounding surprisingly optimistic afterwards but seems to have lost her way this year with the odd exception of her 125 clay title in Paris.

A very disappointing US swing for Sonay with her Monastir points soon to come off, she beat BHM comfortably in Indian Wells and had seemed to turn the match around only to cramp up in the third.

I fought Fran would have a close match with Eva but unfortunately the latter was peaking today. Hopefully she can consolidate her place in the Top 100 to make the Australia Open MD.

Not feeling optimistic about the BJK Cup, Emma playing well but she can't carry the team single handed.

 Ironically Fran is ahead of Katie and Sonay in terms of consolidating her place in the Top 100. She's in the 60s in the 2025 race, amd Katie and Sonay both in the 70s. So even with her Tunisian title coming off, a good chance Sonay can stay I'm the Top 100.

Emma has come into 20/1, 7th= favourite to win the tournament. Though Rybakina, her potential L32 opponent, is showing as 5th favourite at 12/1.

Anyway, one match at a time. Emma 1/4 today vs Tjen 3/1.

Gonna put it out there, Tjen is going to make a big impression on the tour. Can fill the gap Barty left behind.

Shame Emma isn't in a bit of the draw that has totally broken down, but even if she is stopped by Rybakina these are some very useful points as she keeps climbing back to the top 30.

Turned out to be a good practice session for Emma. Steady and incredibly accurate serving.bet Coco wishes she could have a bit of that! Now to Rybakina, definitely up another few notches from this opponent. Assuming Rybakina makes it through!
