After two sets of matches in the white group, all four players remain in contention to qualify for Saturday’s semi-finals. The day featured another pair of three setters. I’m pleased to see two more competitive matches, but it was another struggle to catch up with the matches and even more so with the Bake Off!…
The 2018 WTA Finals continued in Singapore on Monday with the first set of matches from the red group. Both matches went the distance and both saw the lower ranked player win! The seeds through five to eight have won the opening four matches. It’s not a big surprise with how the season has gone…
The 2018 WTA Finals in Singapore are officially underway after the first set of matches were played out on Sunday from the white group. I’m disappointed that I have not been able to blog regularly over the past month. I’m going to try my best to keep up with Singapore and Zhuhai, the latter which…
Sunday’s finals saw a trio of firsts with Caroline Garcia and Camila Giorgi both winning their first titles of 2018 and Dayana Yastremska winning her first WTA title period. The season is drawing to a close and we have just one (!) week left of regulation tournaments. Read on for five stories in Sunday’s Set…
It was a nice feeling to catch up on tennis on Saturday after another busy week. Work is totally manic at the moment so I didn’t get to see any tennis in the week, let alone blog. I’m hoping to try and follow Singapore but don’t know how easy that will be! Saturday was semi-finals…
Thursday saw the completion of third round matches at the 2018 China Open. It was quite an eventful day with many gasps when catching up with the results! It’s been a busy day but I have belatedly managed to catch up with some of the matches so wanted to write a post. There’s also a…
Tuesday’s schedule was headlined by the first match in the night session between Garbiñe Muguruza and Aryna Sabalenka. I love it when a hotly anticipated match lives up to expectation! Wednesday’s schedule is pretty light with the conclusion of the second round and two of the third rounders. The draw has held up better so…
The first round of the 2018 China Open is in the books and the second round is also underway. I’m getting more into this tournament as it doesn’t feel so rushed. Monday was a pretty standard day with the only upset the loss of the number 13 seed, Elise Mertens to home favourite, Zhang Shuai.…
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…
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…
