US Open, Day 5: Makarova overcomes a late bout of cramps, defeats Svitolina in straight sets

The first fourth round match of the 2015 US Open is all set as we now know that Ekaterina Makarova will play Kristina Mladenovic on Sunday with a spot in the quarter-finals up for grabs. Makarova defeated Elina Svitolina, 6-3 7-5 in a decent match of quality hitting. The match had a very strange ending;…

US Open Day 5, 3rd Round Preview: Dominika Cibulkova v Eugenie Bouchard

After  suffering a crushing 6-1 6-0 loss to Roberta Vinci in New Haven, her 15th loss in the last 18 matches, it seemed things couldn’t get much more miserable for Eugenie Bouchard. However, full credit to the Canadian player who has scrapped her way into the third round of the US Open with victories over…

US Open Day 4, 2nd Round Preview: Garbiñe Muguruza v Johanna Konta

Sitting pretty on a 14 match winning streak, Johanna Konta hasn’t lost a match since Wimbledon. After an excellent grass court season where her last three losses came against Maria Sharapova (Wimbledon), Belinda Bencic (Eastbourne) and Karolina Pliskova (Birmingham), Konta has gone on a superb run of form that has seen her crack the world’s…

US Open Day 4, 2nd Round Preview: Camila Giorgi v Sabine Lisicki

HELMETS AT THE READY… In a first career match-up, the number 24 seed, Sabine Lisicki faces Camila Giorgi in the second round of the 2015 US Open. Both players have had up-and-down kind of years which will come as no surprise based on their game styles. Lisicki looked rejuvenated in Indian Wells and Miami where…

US Open Day 3, 2nd Round Preview: Elina Svitolina v Kaia Kanepi

After a rocky first day at the 2015 US Open, just three seeds remain in the second quarter of the women’s draw.

US Open 2015, Day 2: Petkovic survives cull of seeds, edges Garcia in three sets

In a highly compelling first round match, Andrea Petkovic came from a set down and then a break down in the decider to edge Caroline Garcia, 3-6 6-4 7-5. It was one of those matches where you wish it didn’t have to happen in the first round. I was in and out for the first…
