I saw the odds are pretty much even, but you got to think Gauff is going to pull that out the way she is playing.
Well... yes, Gauff's been very impressive. It's a lot to ask of her, though, to maintain that standard, and at 17, her muscle/nervous systems aren't fully baked yet. Plus, I like Krejci's form just now - a winning streak, and she's a few inches taller, giving her a little serving advantage - and as a top doubles player, she is court-wise. I think it could go either way. I thought the other choices open to me were worse.
CONGRATS on your terrific Zidansek victory = what a nailbiter that was!

Thanks yea the Zidansek pick was a little wild. But that was the only way for me to have a chance to win the final. Zidansek gets absolutely no free points off her serve but has a real nice forehand that does a lot of damage.
And yes, I actually am rooting for Krejci. I enjoy watching doubles players when they’re performing well on the singles court. Fun to watch. I didn’t think about the time clock regarding Gauff’s level. Agree it will be difficult to keep that form. Look forward to the matches tomorrow.

I was absolutely torn as whom to pick, so went with the player I'd prefer to win. Gauff irritates me with her relentless "come on" which is much more noticeable with fewer spectators.
Although she did well to reach this stage.

Nice to be no.1 again, but just a byproduct of an enjoyable but unpredictable tournament.
Who'd have thought we'd end up with 3 players to pick from in the semifinals!
