That was going out, why did Leylah do that?

These women WANT to win, not just want to not lose like some of the veterans this week.

She tends to have bad decisions when she’s in a good position.

The match is at the half hour mark and they are only at 2-2!

US crowd like the British even less than Canadians? Fernandez sounds like a more familiar Hispanic last name? More similar sounding accent? Just thinking aloud.

It can be tough in the heat of the moment. Plus if you have ANY belief it might be in then you don't want to make the mistake of leaving it.

Fernandez into this now
Fernandez has endeared herself to the crowd all tournament by outwardly and explicitly showing gratitude and credit to the crowd for her making it this far. Radu is a little cold in that regard (not that there’s anything wrong with that style and approach).

I mean, Canada is right about the US. It’s literally right above New York.

Settling in now, as it's 2-2.....looks like this is going to be a good match.

I’m American, and I clearly prefer a Canadian winning than a Brit. I almost never root for individual British players (in any sports).

She did. I saw this so many times. She puts herself in a good position and then loses few points in a row.

I have never understood this. I never root for a player because of where they are from nor do I favor players from my home country. I have always found nationalism odd.

Yes, Evert is terrible. Luckily there are multiple options for this match other than ESPN.

Nervous start from both. To be expected.
