Foxtel needs to ditch this "US optimum" crap coverage ASAP. As if having Kevin Skinner prattling on wasn't enough, yesterday we got to see Mugfils now boring servebot Raonic - basically anything to put a men's match on. Also I stand to be corrected but it looks like they won't be showing Casey's match
I was pretty cut when I woke up to watch the end of Casey's win to see they were showing Murray. Foxtel used to always follow the Aussies at the US Open. Very disappointed.
Anyway massive win for Casey! And she has to be a shot at Flavia!
So Casey is so highly ranked now that even great results like this don't bump her up more than a spot or two in the ranks. If she beats Flavia and makes the QF she would get 430 points. That would still sit her comfortably below Sam for this week at least. I think it is very important for Sam that Casey does not overtake her, that would be a big blow to Sam's confidence. Sam has a lot to defend this year, and Casey has nothing really. So Sam has a lot of work to do.. I hope she has a good schedule.
Casey really good win. Flavia has been very ordinary lately and has kinda bullshitted her way to the 4r, not sure how Casey's game matches up to hers though? Imagine a QF
So looks like it's all over now (apart from juniors). Ajla/Jarka and Alla/Nastya lost in doubles R3 and Ash and Nastya lost their mixed matches. Bit disappointing to have so many losses in the same day but overall, a pretty good tournament! :yeah:
