2020 Australian Open - Women's Singles - General Discussion

[AM75]

6:0 1:0 Kontaveit

 

[romeo8880]

Go do it then and shutup.

Have no interest in doing so.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

This is just clinical from Kontaveit. Bencic isn’t playing poorly, Kontaveit just insanely in the zone wow.

 

[insideguy]

Bencic needs to retire.

 

[James P]

13 points for Bencic...in 8 games

 

[I Am Finnish]

Belinda is hopeless

 

[Fedinkum]

One of Bencic's rackets should be really worried soon...

 

[AM75]

Is Belinda sick or something?

 

[I Am Finnish]

6:0 1:0 Kontaveit

6.0 3.0

 

[insideguy]

This is why I laugh at Serena haters. These other seeded ladies get stomped off the freaking court and no one says anything lol. Serena loses a 3 setter to a hot player and they all scream retire lol.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Kontaveit just can’t miss!

 

[romeo8880]

Bencic needs to retire.

She’s only 22. Serena is 38, overweight, and way out of her prime

 

[Duncan Donuts]

Jesus. Kontaveit brought this to her match today.

 

[Deon Sanders]

This is pathetic

 

[James P]

This is why I laugh at Serena haters. These other seeded ladies get stomped off the freaking court and no one says anything lol. Serena loses a 3 setter to a hot player and they all scream retire lol.

Serena should retire.

 

[insideguy]

She’s only 22. Serena is 38, overweight, and way out of her prime

And she is still better than Bencic lol who is getting ripped apart by the 28th seed lol.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Bencic on the board

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Bencic having to give everything and still can’t win the point! Far out.

 

[insideguy]

Serena should retire.

Why? I mean Pliskova who is number #2 in the world just lost in straights to the 30th in the world lol

 

[romeo8880]

And she is still better than Bencic lol who is getting ripped apart by the 28th seed lol.

Lol very true

 

[James P]

Why? I mean Pliskova who is number #2 in the world just lost in straights to the 30th in the world lol

Because she's old and...unaesthetic.

 

[James P]

Halep looking good up a break early 4-1

 

[bluetrain4]

Kontaveit apparently has somewhere to be.

 

[insideguy]

One thing about the WTA is they sure distribute the money better between the top 100 than the ATP hehe. Cause on any given day some lady can make the 4th round or quarters in a slam. And I learn about new players every slam

 

[insideguy]

Because she's old and...unaesthetic.

Oh lord. You are just a moron.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Kontaveit serving for the destruction. 6-0 5-1.

 

[flyingboris]

Oh lord. You are just a moron.

Hey, don't go around calling people Lord Moron. We already have a @PrinceMoron

 

[romeo8880]

These courts really seem to favor Halep. I like her chances

 

[insideguy]

The 6th seed doesn't even look like she belongs on a tennis court with this lady.

 

[insideguy]

Hey, don't go around calling people Lord Moron. We already have a @PrinceMoron

Huh. Well he is King moron then.

 

[bluetrain4]

The 6th seed doesn't even look like she belongs on a tennis court with this lady.

It's such a random total destruction. I mean, I can see the 6 seed going down something like 6-3 and 6-2 to the 28 seed, but this?

 

[insideguy]

It's such a random total destruction. I mean, I can see the six seed going down something like 3 and 2 to the 28 seed, but this?

Look the WTA is all about random destruction. Thats why when Serena loses its not a big deal. Cause well everyone else does most of the time to. I mean Osaka lost to a 15 year old who she blitzed 4 months ago.

 

[Fedinkum]

Belinda is completely out-played today by a super hot opponent.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Demolition complete and ANOTHER top 10 seed is out.

Anett Kontaveit thrashes Bencic 6-0 6-1 in just 49 minutes.

The 26th seed is into the 4R where she’ll play the winner of Swiatek/Vekic.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Brutal anett

 

[spystud]

#6 seed won one more game than I did.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Best performance of Kontaveit’s career surely.

21 winners and just 7 unforced errors.

 

[Fedinkum]

#6 seed won one more game than I did.

To be fair to Belinda, she did turn up to this tournament with hotter legs.

 

[bluetrain4]

Impressed Kontaveit never let up. Usually there's at least a mini-lull. She said "nope, I'm just gonna go ahead and win this now."

 

[I Am Finnish]

Donna is cursing in croatian

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Halep meanwhile breadsticks Putintseva. Halep’s draw looking good now.
4R against Mertens/Bellis.
QF against Kontaveit/Swiatek/Vekic.

Then hopefully a juicy SF against Kerber like we got in 2018.

 

[Deon Sanders]

Take away Bencic's third round money

 

[Aussie Darcy]

So in the last 26 hours we’ve lost:

#2 Pliskova
#3 Osaka
#6 Bencic
#8 Serena
#10 Keys

 

[James P]

Big sad

 

[bluetrain4]

Halep meanwhile breadsticks Putintseva. Halep’s draw looking good now.
4R against Mertens/Bellis.
QF against Kontaveit/Swiatek/Vekic.

Then hopefully a juicy SF against Kerber like we got in 2018.

Because of her poor year last year, I haven't been considering Kerber, but here she is - a 3-time Slam champion who is gaining confidence.

 

[zvelf]

6-0 first set mean nothing in the ladies game. Muguruza lost first set 6-0 to Brady looked like she was on another planet then came back and lost 1 game the rest of the match.

Well, Kontaveit won 6-0, 6-1 so it turned out to mean something.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Oh wow that’s awful. Vekic shrieked as she hit the ball and the umpire thought it was someone saying out so he said correction, replay the point, however nobody had called it out, it was Vekic screaming. That’s cheating. Swiatek should’ve been given that point.

 

[insideguy]

Khazakstan sure produces a lot of women pro tennis players.

 

[insideguy]

Well, Kontaveit won 6-0, 6-1 so it turned out to mean something.

Yes Bencic sucks

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Karma got her though and Swiatek breaks and is serving for it over Vekic.

Another seed about to lose.
