Angie should qualify for Singapore really. She's likely #7 in the Road to Singapore after US Open, and she's playing well enough that makes me think she will get enough points to qualify from the coming events. She probably only need around 700 points to qualify.
One problem she has is that both Muguruza and Belinda, who are behind her, have scored their points mostly at a few, mandatory events, so for them almost every result goes straight into their race ranking. Best solution for Angie would be a deep run in Beijing.
No chance, she's at #8 in the race after the US Open. She could only gain points outside from Beijing, if she will reach the SF of a Premier or the QF in Wuhan.
We don't have to act like it would be impossible for her to get to a Tokyo SF for example. But even if she does not make it to Singapore, who cares? She will win Zhuhai and sneak 700 points
Angie will stay at No.11 on Monday because Pennetta passed her at the very last day of the US Open :lol: But I think it is already safe that she returns to the Top ten on Sep 21st
Yeah, that's an okay draw, considering the field.
Woz in the QF, the surface should be a slight advantage for Angie, but Woz won the tournament 5 years ago.
It feels like the times when Woz was able to succeed at these kind of tournaments were in a different century Usually, Angie should be the better player in the current forms of both players. But I agree, although she defeated Gavrilova easily in Stanford, she is still a dangerous player at times although she wasn't that impressive in the last tournaments.
I think its a good draw. She will beat Gavrilova again and Diyas/Brengle in R2 if she plays her "normal" tennis at least. Wozniacki or Mladenovic in the QF is not easy, but definitely feasible. Therefore, defending her SF from last year is the minimum I expect.
the upper half is a nightmare for Angie, the epitome of a nemesis from this season...
Dasha will just be the entrance to hell :lol:
hope Angie is prevailing though...
Well, I am a fan of the german tennis ladies in general, but Angie is my favourite player for years, so I thought this is a fitting name for this forum. :lol:
I have to say I am excited, because its the final phase of the season and I really want to see her playing in Singapore. So she needs a few more wins in the next 3 weeks. And a SF or hopefully more in Tokyo would be a good start and could take some pressure off to need big results in China. Besides, I am always excited if Angie plays, no matter which tournament it is
