Funny, the one time I would actually support moving the women around a bit, and they don't do it.

[lexpretend]

I don't really support moving anyone around, ever. The minute you make it subjective you get nonsense like suspiciously inflated Henman/Rusedski seedings every year, and the year everyone nearly boycotted the USO. Upgrade the players "everyone" "knows" are better than their rankings and why not just hand the seedings over to TV to start with.

[janie]

I'm with Alex. There is just no way to mess with the rankings that can be fair to everyone. Too bad for Kim and Venus, and too bad for whoever faces them, too, but that's just what happens when you miss months of tennis.

The one outcome from this that I would hate would be Valiant Unseeded St. Kim mowing down the seeds to win the title. Let's face it; we all know she can beat Woz, Aga, and Kvitty right now. Who the hell CAN'T she beat? Disturbing.

Round One

V.Williams-Pironkova
S.Williams[5]-Clijsters

This would be fun. Never happen, but still fun.

[DBBN]

SO FUN.

Also:
A. Radwanska [3]-U. Radwanska
K. Pliskova [Q]-K. Pliskova [Q]

[Old Hag]

I've watched an all-Rad match already. Two defenders that didn't play any differently. Yuck.

[DBBN]

I think they said one or both would pull out if it ever happened again, after U-Rad qualied for USO and drew A-Rad.

Then they should find a different job, or one of them should. That is really unprofessional.

[Old Hag]

Remember when the Williams' used to avoid each other in non-slams and Miami for a decade? Then Serena went crazy.
