Brengle 'vulturing' for the past 4 weeks, messing up the opportunity for other players to win a French Open WC she doesn't need.
As top-100, she should be playing WTA events. She is #1 seed everywhere, when the #2 seed is ranked way below. She is the only top-100 among those girls.
Time for new rule to keep the top-100 out of ITF.
While I do think it's strange that she's playing the challenger circuit, I guess it is convenient for her because she doesn't have to do a lot of traveling and can build some confidence. But if we're going to criticize Saisai for doing the same thing (and being more successful at it), then we have to criticize Madison also.
Not everyone was criticizing Sai Sai, including myself.
I've been following the ITF for the past 15 years and it's not unusual at all for the top seeds of a 50k/60k ( in many parts of the world ) to be ranked in the lower part of the Top 100.
I'll give you guys this, I agree that it may look a bit odd for Madison to be playing these events because very few players around her ranking decided to play these tournaments. But in the end that's not her fault Like I said above, she was in dire form coming into these tournaments. :crying:
