Raise your hand if you're happy that Tsveti won a set.
Total points: McHale 100, Pironkova 74. I couldn't see the match, but I get the feeling Christina was the much better player and just choked away the second. This isn't a terrible loss for Tsveti, but oh, how I would have loved to see her upset Woz....

Great composure to dominate the third after choking away the second. :yeah:
Putting together a nice summer. Stanford R2, Carlsbad R3, and now R2 in Cincinnati. Doing a good job beating the players she's supposed to beat. Hope she has fun against Wozniacka in the next round.

Tsvetana was god-awful on return today :smash: I don't know how she managed to win a set.
Hopefully she won't get demolished in New Haven. :help:

Much like the typical "No seed, no win" phrase we use for Gise, this is a case of "No Venus. no win" for Tsveti. :hug: Glad she won a set.
Xtina :yeah: GL against Rory's fuck buddy! :banana:

It always hurts watching the other tournament results for Tsveti when the second WTA QF for the year is over.:ignore:
Looks like Christina did way better watching the stats.Still hurray for Tsveti for getting the second set after trailing 2-4.:clap2:
83% winning on 1st set and 6 aces!Christina!:worship:

Pironkova had no chance whatsoever there was no V Williams in the draw that could inspire her to play well.

Good job Xtina :). No surprise ;).
She won't be able to keep the ball in enough to beat Sunshine though.

Christina will be fine as long as she keeps on beating higher ranked players.
