The good draw was in Wuhan. I thought she had a chance for a big run.
This is Sharapova then Halep in Beijing. Not going to be easy

What with Pliskova being an idiot and Kate, Andi and JoLa, I only care about doubles anyway. :sobbing:

I'll tell you how excellent it really was - Kate took the spoilt brat to the woodshed, 7-6 6-1.

Three observations:

1) Kate's serve was on fire - she repeatedly got it to swing both ways in the air. The match, at least what I saw of it, was a absolute joy to behold.
2) Kate looked stunningly beautiful in that outfit - it managed to be perfectly modest yet also showed every curve. And in subtle national colours. A triumph for the designer. I'll post a picture when I find one.

But most importantly:
3) (noting the cross around her neck) today is Christmas Day for her, isn't it?
