Every morning I wake up and scan through the results on the AO app on my phone and apart from a few results here and there that have caused a raised eyebrow or two, there haven’t been any massive shocks… until today that is. I still cannot believe that Ana Ivanovic has beaten Serena Williams…
Day 6 was a fantastic day for the up-and-coming WTA players on tour as Garbine Muguruza, Simona Halep and Sloane Stephens all won to join Eugenie Bouchard in the last 16. There is so much talent coming through and these are exciting times on the WTA tour. On the ATP side, Grigor Dimitrov had a…
There is no doubt that the matches on the schedule for Day 6 are the best of the tournament so far. There are some showcase clashes in both the men’s and women’s draws… and it’s the weekend woohoo! Wozniacki v Muguruza is the most interesting match of the week in my opinion so please do…

You can read Dancevic’s views HERE. First, my thoughts on day…
Day 1 is done and there were a surprising number of high profile exits in the women’s draw as Petra Kvitova, Sara Errani and Roberta Vinci all fell. Tommy Haas was the only seed to exit in the men’s draw. So much happened and I have missed out on so much whilst sleeping and working! …
