2018 WTA Italian Open

[helixx]

and she will not hold once again

 

[Ronaldo]

Breakpoint!!!

Whats New!

 

[Pagoo]

Man, if Simo blows this...

Everyone is saying Pova is running on fumes yet Halep is struggling like a clown.

 

[Pagoo]

LOL. 0-40.

 

[DARTHSEID]

Whats New!

Again WTF!

 

[helixx]

why is she doing this when she cant hold serve anyways

 

[Pagoo]

If Pova holds once, it's curtains for Halep.

 

[Ronaldo]

 

[Ronaldo]

Again WTF!

Simona cannot handle the Destroyer of Serves!

 

[helixx]

GAMEPOINT!!!!

 

[Artanis]

If Pova holds once, it's curtains for Halep.

Lol

 

[Pagoo]

Halep better break for the win. Ms. Fumes still has something in the tank after all.

 

[Pagoo]

Lol

Did I say something funny?

 

[helixx]

so what now?!

 

[helixx]

lucky halep

 

[Artanis]

Look at the difference of height!

 

[Pagoo]

lucky halep

Lol. Thanks for been a good sport. If it is any consolation, I will be rooting for Svitolina tomorrow (or maybe not).

 

[Pagoo]

Look at the difference of height!

David meet Goliath.

 

[Artanis]

Goof game Halep!
Last year final reloaded

 

[Ronaldo]

David meet Goliath.

We all know how that turned out

 

[Pagoo]

19 breaks in all. Halep 11, Pova 8.Good match.

 

[helixx]

i will be rooting for svit for sure

 

[Pagoo]

History keeps repeating itself.

 

[Pagoo]

i will be rooting for svit for sure

You have my blessings pal.

 

[Nadal15thslam]

Halep will win RG

 

[helixx]

except of serving, it was a good match, also good tournament for Masha, the most important thing, being seeded at RG is done so im satisfied

 

[MatsPhilander]

Maria is now the overwhelming favourite for RG.

 

[Ronaldo]

Maria is now the overwhelming favourite for RG.

By losing?

 

[jaggy]

Sharapova seems to be making progress but I assume when Serena returns she wins everything anyway

 

[Fintft]

Good job Simona!

Halep will win the final and hopefully RG as well.

 

[THUNDERVOLLEY]

By losing?

Well, Sharapova has been there as French Open champion. Halep has not, so you sort have to give the edge to one who knows how to win there when comparing the chances of the two.

Halep has reasonably better chances than Maria at the French

 

[MatsPhilander]

By losing?

She is perfectly primed/honed/seasoned now.

 

[MatsPhilander]

No chance, she has been woefully undercooked/rusty thus far.

 

[Ronaldo]

She is perfectly primed/honed/seasoned now.

A Tiger by the tail, eh?

 

[Harry_Wild]

Halep has reasonably better chances than Maria at the French

Halep has never won a GS so I think Sharapova has a better chance if both are in the finals! Halep usually chokes! LOL!

 

[I Am Finnish]

Oh wow

[NaomiKonjuhPotapova]

Just saw the highlight.
I'm amazed that after so many Sharapova's matches I watched, she stills can registering a new type of grunt!

This time is Kuznetsova-esque.

looks like Maria is back. and she could make a run at the French open this year. If she can beat Ostepanko, she can potentially beat anyone on that red clay. and remember they use Lighter Women's balls there so her serve should be much more effective.

 

[NaomiKonjuhPotapova]

"Karolina was fined by the WTA and accepted the fine," he wrote.

"She has also decided to send the same amount from her endowment fund for a good cause. It's a four-digit amount."

Lol, is Plisk feeling guilty that's why she donated the same amount of money?
I personally think she should be suspended.

AND 4 DIGITS? Serena got fined 175K for verbal abuse, and this kind of behavior only get 4 digits?

 

[Ronaldo]

Ka should be applauded, She Is Woken!

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Cheering for Halep to win Rome. She currently has just the one title (Shenzhen - an International) which really is terrible.

IMHO Svit gon walk all over Simona,

 

[Nostradamus]

So if Simona wins tomorrow, is she the prohibitive favorite to win it all at French open,, even though she never won it before ?

$9 although I definitely wouldn't have her as the 3rd favorite at the moment. Pliskova and Kvitova should be higher.

pliskova and Kvitova totally suck on clay so they really are not the favorite.

Kvitova won Madrid last week whilst Pliskova beat Halep at Madrid in the QF's...
