Biggest win for Sasno for quite some time!

Naomi unable to back up her Montreal/USO form

As soon as SASNOVICH joins my signature she does great things :worship:

I'm sure she won't keep up this level, but it was long overdue and I'm so happy to see her delivering again. She has such a nice game when it's working, and of course fun interviews.

Clearly need to keep removing her and adding her back' then!

Naomi perhaps deflated after missing two good opportunities in the summer swing?

Wow there goes Naomi’s chance to sneak into the YEC last minute.

I know she probably doesn’t care for YEC as much but still disappointing.

Sasnovich is always dangerous. I really think she underachieved in her career. Seems like she’s always capable of beating a full hand of top players on a good day.

For the moment, at least, it doesn't look like the new Wonder Coach Hire can stop Naomi from being Naomi out there. This summer I really believed that Wiktorowski's input had made a big -- and maybe permanent? -- difference for her, but maybe the New Coach effect has already worn off. Or maybe she's just mentally done for the season, like Svitty. We'll see!
