Four days down and we are left with the top 32 in each draw. There were upsets in the women’s draw on day 4, but nothing that really shook the boat. The big result came in the men’s draw with the final match of the day. I’m focusing mainly on the women but how could…
Day 3 was slow to get going but as to be expected with the schedule, peaked in the evening. There were so many good women’s matches on at the same time. There were more upsets in the women’s draw with five of the top 12 seeds already out after just three days. In case you…

Serena v Vika is the obvious highlight of the women’s schedule but i’ve also got my eye on another intriguing third rounder featuring Madison Keys and Timea Bacsinszky.

The 2015 Family Circle Cup will be contested between the number 5 and 7 seeds, Angelique Kerber and Madison Keys. After watching their final last year in Eastbourne, I am mega excited about this one! Two days before Wimbledon 2014, in a match that floated largely under the radar, Keys prevailed in a thrilling Eastbourne…
It’s amazing how quickly things can turn around in tennis. After a painful second round loss to Sloane Stephens in Miami, Madison Keys has gone on the rampage in Charleston, losing just nine games in her first three matches. In her dance through the draw, Keys has beaten Kateryna Bondarenko, Andreea Mitu and fellow American,…
