Sabalenka had only played one match since the AO (the loss to Vekic).

She seemed to play herself back into a bit of form in that 2nd set.

@MagentaRocks @savannahstennis @tennis Had a feeling Andreeva might cause Jabeur trouble but didn’t think it would be this bad… #tennis

She won't be allowed into Wimbledon looking like a Knickerbocker Glory.

I don’t care if you have a lingerie fetish that involves ladies garments from the 1800’s but keep that mess to yourself. Sheesh

I have had it on a side monitor.

Nobody seems to have been able to hold a break

Fitting that both of them are wearing Thigh Bandages of Death.

Yep - surprised that Bouzkova dealt to her In Auckland in her second match back - but Samsonova isn't really scaring anybody anymore.

So I agree with your "No idea where this one is going to go" take.

Hip injury sounds very not great ahead of AO. Hopefully nothing serious.

@emarktaylor @nikunashi @tennis lot of those are precautionary. Hopefully that's what this is for vondrousova as well.

@nikunashi @tennis I thought she looked quite good at times in her Auckland matches

Still no excuse for Sloane to have lost though. She's just allergic to Australia.

Very interesting, especially amongst the top teams. Both Siniakova and Krejikova will continue playing doubles - both of their pairings look formidable. The return of Hseih/Mertens! Further down, Pliskova/Vekic was not a pair I would have expected to see entering.
On the whole, also quite surprised of the overwhelming number of international pairings in an Olympic year.

Fast match. Dolehide is moving to the Final.

@MagentaRocks @tennis

If she serves like that in the final she'll get killed by Garcia or Sakkari.

But stranger things have happened.

@nikunashi I turned away for 15m to eat It's my fault. I'm back on the couch now so things will go better.
