And Duckhee Lee is deaf, which makes his on court exploits that much more impressive. 

 

From what I've read Tsitsipas has been having issues with the court and his shoes all week.  You'd think he would bring a couple pairs with him. 

Benoit lost his cool but Stef can annoy players sometimes with his various stalling tactics (challenging calls that are obviously going to turn out to be erroneous just for the extra time).

Sabalenka with the drive-by handshake. Granted, she made the final, which is better than her other results this year, but what a difference a year makes. Last year, this time, she was thought to be the next big sensation. She could still get it together, but what a flameout in 2019.

Good grief - both Keys and Stephens are now losing to people they should not be losing to.  For both it's like their careers are going downhill fast.  It's painful to watch.  

 

And Kyrgios is just a joke now.  He was yelling at the chair umpire last night for a white towel.  hahahahaha.  Why is it up to the chair umpire to get you a towel?  Aren't players responsible for bringing their own equipment?  Bring your own damned towel if you don't like the tournament towel.  Seriously?  And you could hear all the f-bombs and it took the chair awhile to give him a violation.  If Serena acted like that..............and they just let him get away with it.  That and his constantly quick serving between points, and it's like he tries to see how fast he can go to get a reaction from the other player.  So childish.

So CSN beats Venus and then retires in the next match with a hip injury? Damn.

 

There’s been a lot of talk about the struggles of the all-American US Open semifinalists from two years ago: Sloane/Venus and Coco/Madison. All of them are struggling with injuries or other things.

Apparently, Naomi Osaka reclaims World No. 1.

 

Bibi “Biggest Drama Queen Ever” Andreescu beat Pliskova and plays Kenin in the semis.

 

Interesting stat about the all-Russian men’s semi:

 

Tsitsipas not defending his final and Zverev losing to Khachanov means Nishikori is back in the top five.

 

Serena/Naomi tonight...
