Absolutely outrageous. I watched a part of the semi between Sabalenka and Anisimova, and the latter was really good! Bencic too is in good form currently, and was still wiped away 6-0 6-2 by Swiatek in the other semi-final.

So, in John Henry’s words: what are they eating over there in Swiatek-land?

3 mill for that nonsense. Good hourly rate.

Swiatek got a new coach and worked on her service motion. Markedly more power, accuracy, and most importantly increased first serve percentage. Has almost been transformative for her whole game.

Now a best of 3 shootout

Yeah much better than yesterday.

That was top shelf tennis.

Congrats to Sinner. Commiserations to Alcaraz. Love the admiration and respect between the two.

Sinner plays like Djokovic but with Federer-like flatter ground strokes and has the same court demeanour as the Swiss great.
Alcaraz has the fire and athleticism of Rafa but also the touch, finesse, creativity of Federer.

Amazing new rivalry!
