Beezus you queen :cheer:

And, just as I suspected, Bouchard can only sustain a decent level when fueled by rage and bitterness.

UEgenie might surprise us by winning a set in her Wimbledon R1 loss after all.

There's an article on the website for Eastbourne that, whilst generally not hostile to Genie (as you would expect), nevertheless says that she "...has now registered rare back-to-back wins on the tour" and "...is now considerably a has-been". Surprisingly honest for what you would expect to be a puff piece. Losing to Strycova isn't that bad but Genie really does need to do something soon or she will be back in ITFs and really will be a has-been.

Bouchard is #61 right now. She already would have to play qualifyings for stacked WTA Premier events with smaller draw. Her ranking plummeted from #46 to #61 so no actual improvement or sign that "she's back" this year.
