BJK carrying on like she has no idea there is a TTW hate thread on her today

Good performance from Radacanu taken advantage of a good draw. Think she will struggle v Bencic but it’s a great performance

I'm not at all if you've seen Raducanu play. I’m not sure who is the more impressive teenager, Leylah Fernandez for barely taking out Osaka and Kerber or Emma Raducanu for utterly demolishing Sorribes Tormo and Rogers. We might have two future stars after this slam. Hopefully neither turns out to be the next Bouchard.
I watched her at Wimbledon and the last match here. I think she has a good serve but she reminds me of a more limited combo of Sharapova and Ivanovic. I thought Rogers had different game plans she would use.

Emma loves big stage. I thought it would be hard for her to play on Ashe for the first time, but it's actually not.

Will someone please take the microphone from Pam Shriver!

It would be hilarious if Billie Jean King jumped out of the stands and did a power bomb on Pam Shriver.

Nobody interested in Pavs vs. Ka. Pliskova match? The first set was very even until the last games in which Pliskie gained the initiative and was able to capture first set 7-5.

What has been odd in the match, is that Pliskie has shown several expressions and even smiled a couple of times! o_O :D

I’m watching. It’s fun. Has potential to be a real scrap.

It seems few are picking the recently much more consistent Karolina for the title - understandably so, as despite being the second highest seed left and in good form, she hasn't managed to win a title this year and is at risk of becoming something of a "nearly woman". As a big fan, I recognise that there's a real opportunity here for Karolina... but nevertheless I don't expect her to capitalise on it.

Rogers said she expects death threats after her loss today. Not surprising. I think she will get a few

Unfortunately I agree with you. It's so sad to think about all of these loser gamblers taking out their anger on tennis players. And, it seems, more often than not, female players.
I really wish these bullies could be arrested for the mental damage that they do. They're just losers, but others suffer.

Rebecca Marino stepped back from the game almost 10 years ago, just as social media began to take off. She couldn't handle the bullying and it took a toll on her self-confidence. She began to hate the sport. Luckily she's recently come back. She made it through qualifying at USO this year. I admire her.
