Gotta hope she can get YE # 1 now. Similar like last year but Garbines Average is much better than 2016. Maybe she surprises us and plays like 2015. Last fall too many injuries popped up. This year she looks fit to me.

I hope she can win one of Tokyo/Wuhan/Beijing, just to get the "#1 winning a tournament" off her back, but making a semi or two and playing well would be quite fine for me.
That was #1-esque really. She was also all smiles and congratulated the fans in Japanese as well, a real personality and figure #1 needs to possess and carry around. Slaybiñe, God i love her!
Garbine did not look good today :frown2: She liked the usual fire in her face and on court body language which was sad to see. :crying: She did not attack which was disappointing. Her coach said something about not having the energy, so perhaps she is unwell or had no sleep? I hope she recovers soon if she is unwell.
Maybe she had some bad sushi?
Well SF is not bad, shame about the bagel though but following tournaments are much more important. I expect a few wins from her in Wuhan just to collect points and extend the lead then she can gladly lose in later rounds but Beijing/YEC must be top priority. She really did look tired today. C&K could indeed be right with his assumptions.
Garbine hasn't looked her usual self the last couple of weeks or is it just me?
She looks less tense in the face during matches. Is this because it is not a grand slam??
She is playing Linette tomorrow, who I don't know much about.
Not the best match today against Linette, but she scrapped out a win somehow. She needs to power up against Ostaspanko or she will be quickly out of the tournament.
Garbine has to play Karolina Pliskova, Venus Williams and Ostaspenko in the YEC round robin group. It will be very interesting, I hope she has fully recovered from that nasty virus she had.
