Kyrgios got a point penalty.

I don’t love the Pliskobot, but she’s been reasonably consistent. (Although the person who replied that she’s “polite” clearly didn’t see Karolina pummel an umpire’s chair with her racquet.) Still, I’d think she’d prefer the bigger titles.

Hsieh just beat Caro. Indeed.

Grigor is really struggling.

Sloane out. What a mess she’s been. Not even perking up on North American soil.

Venus is just destroying Kasatkina. Payback for that tight Indian Wells battle last year.

Qiang got the walkover from Serena, and Yafan just defeated Danielle Collins, so it’s an all-Wang battle next round. Danielle with the drive-by handshake after she got her butt whooped.

LOL at the replies to this.

This is very sweet.

LOL. I saw that and thought, “Someone’s got too much time on their hands.” 😂 Kerber can be frosty at the net when she loses, but not usually that vocal. She’s taking these losses hard.

Nasty behavior from Kerber. And from Kyrgios... typical. No fine for this tantrum?

Oh no.

Yeah, I just saw. Hmmm.

This guy is just stunning to me.
