22. Women's draw is in shambles. Kvitova out

Jan 2016

Serena has a tough 4R opponent in Becic. Looking forward to seeing how far Karolina Pliskova can go. She'll meet Keys in the next round. I'm waiting for Madison to break through, but her less than well rounded game is holding her back.

Feel bad for Rafa but good on Verdasco. That guy is not strong between the ears, and historically, Spaniards haven't had the will to fight Rafa. So 3 on the trot is impressive, especially in 5 and winning the final 6 games. Aside from that, men are true to form. Only Stan on an exceptional day can stop Djokovic, but Stan is fully capable of going out early. Very inconsistent. Murray...unless there's 30 mph winds, no reason to expect Murray to beat Djokovic.
