I don't think so. At least that's not what is being described here. It seems as though Asderaki blew the whistle via signaling to the umpire. She's Greek, and no doubt, understands what Stefano's father is saying.

Danielle would have to serve her best. A lot of first serves and limit the double faults, and I don’t think she can. Then she’d have a chance.  Because Barty isn’t going to play stupid like other players ignoring her backhand.

I only caught a few games of the men's final but figured that Barty was not going to let this moment pass, she would have her Murray moment. I also figured Kokkinakis and Kyrgios would take the men's doubles trophy. I'm sure it's a big deal for Australian sports fans. Like, I said before, they are not missing a thing with any player's absence.

I missed it but from reading it sounds like Danielle played well but couldn’t seal the deal. Barty isn’t one to just fold so expected.  I heard the story about her being the first Aussie to win since 1978. It’s kind of really since Goolagong.  They have to acknowledge O’Neil but no one was in that year’s tournament. I mean like - no one. So I think that’s why this is an even bigger deal.  They know.  Good for her, after all the ridiculous drama.

How can anyone hate Ash Barty?!

She's the most harmless, un-controversial and "nice" individual, almost to the point of being a bit bland.....

Barty is very bland. Still, I don't hate her, I don't even dislike her.

It's probably not the first time this has happened but it's still strange to discover that Danielle Collins played an entire major final without a clothing or shoe sponsor.

    • 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???
