Both Frances Tiafoe and Taylor Townsend are in the final round of Qualies to be played tonight. Taylor Townsend competes against fellow American Jennifer Brady.

 

Some second round qualifying matches still need to be completed after being suspended due to the rain. After all the rain in Auckland, I hope rain is not going to be a factor in tennis this year like it was in the French and Wimbledon last year. 

At least they have roofs (plural) in OZ.

 

ETA.  Looks like Tiafoe is playing another American as well Tim Smyczek.

 

There are probably other Americans still in qualifying (Reilly Opelka is one).

Taylor Townsend lost to Jennifer Brady in 3 sets. Brady moves onto Rd. 1 of the Australian Open.

 

Frances Tiafoe qualifies for his first main draw at the Australian Open!!

 

Noah Rubin also qualifies for his first main draw.

As @DramatistDreamer said ...they got married because she was pregnant. I see he runs the household. He said no to college when his parents wanted him to go at least a year or two and now he has gotten a girl pregnant. I don't think he is that great of a player like the rest of media thinks he is. His game is too mechanical for my tastes and he will be lucky to be a top 20 player with his game.

    • But that's not weird... nail polish is allowed in prisons via commissary. Same with general makeup, haircuts, and hair colouring products.
    • This is DAYS, the show that said you could brainwash anyone with simple kitchen appliances.  An actor's nail polish or lack thereof should be the least of our concerns, lol.
    • It was not that she wasn't wearing nail polish, it is that she managed to get a manicure in prison
    • "We're Knot Done Yet": the name of this lovely podcast AND what JVA tells her plastic surgeon at every appointment. In other news, Michele Lee is reminding me more and more of my old music teacher from elementary school, and I couldn't STAND that bitch.
    • I apologize if this has been covered already, but does anyone know whether Douglas Marland was HW'ing by that point?  If he was, then I see what he meant when he said (in so many words) that he had inherited a mess when he started at GH.  Aside from Alan and Monica, none of that material seems very promising.  The story with Mark Dante and the Corbins is the wrong kind of predictable (y'know, the kind where you know what's going to happen, but you just don't give a crap?), the stuff with Scotty and Laura is cute but toothless, I don't know WHAT the hell Gina and Steve Carlson's character are arguing about and Rick Webber has to be the dumbest man alive not to see David Hamilton practically twirling his moustache over how to make a killing off Lamont Corbin's declining health.  (By the way, "LAMONT CORBIN"?  What is this, "The Shadow"?  And "Corbin Limited" sounds like some jive I'd hear over on Y&R.) In a way, it's kind of like watching today's GH, right down to the dialogue that's serviceable and pushes plot along but says nothing about the characters' inner lives.
    • It absolutely was; the narrative was there, and they followed it promptly. Maybe that's back when women had babies at young ages?!?!?

    • Thanks for asking that!  Back when we had another major event upcoming (a party or the concert), I had intended to ask what everyone here was planning to wear.

    • Lol. Right?  I mean the show could have framed the 60th anniversary in a different way, but the narrative was celebrating Tom and the hospital. Also, what a weirdly sexist bunch of posts about women's nail polish.  Like, yes, this is Days problem lol.  Stacy Haiduk isn't a good Kristen because she doesn't wear nail polish?  Are we in the 1950's???
