Or, to not suck. Keep it up, please thanks.
Although, you must also play like this against Silliams, to compensate for not seeing her murder Woz.

Sweta and Woz will have a long wait while they force everyone out of the stadium to let the 2nd paying crowd of the day inside. Who will handle this delay better? Meanwhile the green blobs on the radar march inexorably eastward ... I have not seen a Petko dance since the original version and as much as I like her, I wish she had let it die. I know. Is she really going to do it forever? GETTING SLIGHTLY OLD.

I had a feeling that Sveta might be tough for Caroline. I didn't get to see the match so I can't comment but I'm glad she pulled it out. It's going to be hard for her going forward. This court is fast and she seems vulnerable. That said, today was a good win. She won 13 of the last 16 games. I hope she can beat Petko but I think it's basically 50/50.
This from the US Open site:
'This was the first meeting between the two versatile veterans, who are still hoping for that elusive Grand Slam breakthrough. The Frenchman has more big-match experience, having been to the Australian Open final and the semis at Wimbledon.'
Were those sentences written by different people?

Oh, that was about Tsonga-Fish if anyone wasn't sure.
I'm having some cognitive dissonance over the women's QF line-ups. Woz-Petko, Serena-Chunk, Pennetta-Kerber, Stosur-Vera. It seems more like a crazy French Open.
This Kerber run is completely out of the blue. She was struggling to win any matches all year. I guess she reached the semis of Dallas last week but still ... this is truly from nowhere. She began the year in the top 50 and had slumped out of the top 100 by the time of Dallas. Now she's in the QF of the Open.
I guess it's worth noting that Pennetta beat her easily in Bastad a few weeks back.

LOL @ Sweta getting everyone's hopes up.
Yes Tsonga! The MARDYFISHTOP5 shit really isn't funny, especially if there's an actual possibility of it.

Haha, silly Sweata. Hapless Principality. Both matches ended with the winners I wanted, but not the way I'd have liked.

I had a feeling that Sveta might be tough for Caroline. I didn't get to see the match so I can't comment but I'm glad she pulled it out. Sweta was error-filled all match. It was a poor match by Sunshine's low slam standards. She had a bunch of loose errors, and she totally choked the 1st set away. Wozniacka's level has dropped since whatever injuries she had after overplaying MMs in the summer. He still has a decent shot at it. Fish has nothing to defend the rest of the season and I would guess that he'll do everything to ensure he makes YEC. Fit Dave doesn't have much buffer, although we hope he increases it vs. Rod Dick.
