The strategy looks hit the ball side to side before the inevitable huge puff of wind means your opponent misses.

Also isn't the point of outdoor tournament to play outdoors when possible so why is roof shut on Chatrier when other courts all started as advertised.

What if Leo watches his mom rebel like this?
|
By:
Mertens and Gasparyan hasn't even started yet, so it's not the only court not playing.
|
By:
Sam Smith talking rubbish ,saying Azarenka can do what she likes as shes had injuries in the past ,Kovinic missed atrick ,shouldve just sat in her chair ,waiting for a default.
|
By:
There would never be a default though so she's just wasting her time doing that.
|
By:
Vika not getting defaulted. Kovinic would have just gotten herself a cold.

Inverdale seething with Vika.

The worst venue in all of world sport is pitch 18 at Sheddocksley.
Nightmare to arrive there on a miserable day and learn that you had been allocated the pitch that no one wanted to play on. ![]() |

By:
It does rain all the time, but it rains while being 30 degrees.
