Sunday’s Set Points, WTA Beijing: Stephens-Pavs drama, Garcia survives early scare

Sunday’s action in Beijing saw the continuation of the first round with the first night match between Sloane Stephens and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova bringing the drama. Aside from the retirements of two seeds, it was a mostly routine day for the seeds. The first round continues again on Monday along with the start of the second…

Saturday’s Set Points, WTA Wuhan, Beijing: Sabalenka soars with second title of 2018

It’s changeover day as Wuhan has wrapped up and the fourth and final Premier Mandatory tournament in Beijing has already started. I’ve watched bits of Wuhan but haven’t felt motivated to write this week. It’s been another long tennis year and I am definitely feeling end-of-season vibes. I’ve changed roles at work so everything is…

Sunday’s Set Points, WTA Wuhan: Kontaveit’s 8th top 10 win, Goerges continues to thrive in 3 setters

Hello to all! It’s been a while since I have blogged so thought it was time for an update. After the US Open, and particularly with everything that came with the final, I needed a break. I’ve just changed roles at work so that took most of my thoughts in the week immediately after the…

US Open 2018 final review: Naomi Osaka plays a sensational match to win first Slam title

  The dust has settled on Saturday’s US Open final but I am still in shock at what happened. Naomi Osaka beat Serena Williams, 6-2 6-4 to win the 2018 US Open, her first Slam title. This had to be one of the most dramatic matches i’ve ever watched. I’ll get to the drama later…

US Open 2018 Final Preview: Serena Williams vs. Naomi Osaka

The 2018 US Open final will be contested between the number 17 seed, Serena Williams and the number 20 seed, Naomi Osaka. The three Slam finals so far in 2018 have all been tantalising match-ups on paper and this is another cracker. The pair will play at 4pm local time in New York (9pm UK…

Wednesday’s Set Points, US Open 2018 Day 10: Osaka’s first Slam semi-final, Keys up next

The 2018 US Open semi-finals are all set and will both be on the schedule on Thursday night. This post wraps up the highlights from Wednesday’s schedule with the two quarter-finals from the bottom half. Thursday is always the toughest day of the tournament to catch up on with both semis at night so this…

Tuesday’s Set Points, US Open Day 9: Sevastova’s first Slam SF, Serena’s first top 10 win in 2018

The first semi-final at the 2018 US Open is set with the lower ranked players in both quarter-finals prevailing in straights. One of those was not unexpected though! I’m hitting the wall now and generally seem to lose a bit of interest in Slams and tournaments by the end when there’s not as much going…

Monday’s Set Points, US Open 2018 Day 8: Osaka’s first Slam QF, Keys powers past Cibulkova

The quarter-finals are set at the 2018 US Open with just eight women left in the hunt for the final Slam of the year. Monday featured a couple of dramatic matches and confirmation that the bottom half will produce a finalist that has never won a Slam before. Read on for six stories in Monday’s…

Sunday’s Set Points, US Open 2018 Day 7: 3 consecutive QFs in NYC for Pliskova & Sevastova

The first four quarter-finalists of the 2018 US Open were confirmed on Sunday as we moved into the second week of the tournament. The quarter-finals have a familiar feel to them as three of the four from the top half made the quarter-finals in New York last year. Read on for seven stories in Sunday’s…

US Open 2018, 4th Round Previews: Sharapova vs. Suárez Navarro, Keys vs. Cibulkova

This post previews the two last 16 matches from the third quarter of the women’s draw. For a round-up of Saturday’s action at the US Open, check out the Set Points recap post here. I had a bit of time this morning so felt compelled to write a few previews since I probably won’t have…
