WTA week of 1/29; Linz 500 & Hua Hin 250

[Connor35]

Linz has two really decent semis today.

The Vekic - Aleksandrova semi was fantastic.

57 76 76.

Vekic was even up 5-1 in the 3rd set TB and Eketerina came back to win the TB and the match.

When you're more excited for a Linz semifinal than any match at the most recent Slam. That's the WTA!

If Ostapenko just cut out a third of all her UEs she'd be unbeatable. Pavlyuchenkova is getting slapped around the court like a juniors player lol absolutely no chance

But the problem with her is that everything can turn around very quickly too.
Edit: not today though. Sheesh, that serve was solid.

34 winners to 13 unforced errors.
These are the Ostapenko matches you're really glad you had the opportunity to watch.
Insane.

I’ll get a thread up later, but some pretty decent qualie matchups in Abu Dhabi.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Penko is playing incredibly well this week. First set in the bag against Alexandrova.

Penko is playing incredibly well this week. First set in the bag against Alexandrova.

Her serve has been a weapon this week, which is incredible considering how bad it's been in the past and how inconsistent her bad toss is.
