Heat + Hsieh's game + injury all proved too much for Karin. You could see her slowly start to deteriorate as the games got longer, and Hsieh got a little funkier.

A lot of great lobs from Su-Wei's game. When she plays someone who doesn't overpower her, she really has such a fun and weird little game to watch.

Hoping Knapp's injury isn't too serious, and she can start putting together a full injury-free year.

Allertova or Cibulkova next for SW. Hopefully she can assert herself well if she takes on Pome.

Watched first set
I actually some to KK waterway - shy but sweet, said she was better ..... Clearly not

She won first 2 points - looked awesome and then turned j to error prone match
Probably worst match I've seen at the open this year
Poor KK- hope she can come back soon

Kind draw for Su-Wei, needed these points. Good luck against Dominika :)

No idea why Karin played here, not a single match played since the US Open, how could she be ready?
