This half of the women's draw is such a cluster**** of mediocrity. Someone needs to find some form, fast.

Apart from Kerber it was always that way and she's playing like rubbish
 
Genie leaving it too short in the court again.

Are there any plans to put in new seats at RLA (like MCA)? The green looks a tad hideous.

It was always the weaker half, but I expected better showings from Muguruza, Halep and Svitolina. At the moment you have a couple of seeds playing awful tennis and a few unseeded players playing ok.

You expected more from Halep? Really? Injured coming in, no prep, and has played rubbish for a good 6 months. Muguruza I agree with.

How is halep still 4? She going around winning every tournament but the majors and masters or something?

Edit: or whatever the WTA refers the 1000pt tournaments as
 
Is it just me, or whenever Genie is playing is the crowd like 90% men?

Well ummmmm is it any different to Wozniaki, Kournikova (ahhhh yes she was the one!!!), Ivanovic and a few others?

Shows how bad the ones behind have been. She was number 2 by a mile so number 4 is a bit of a drop

Six months is a bit deceiving - she has played four tournaments since the US Open (where she made the quarters and took a set off Serena) and hasn't lost to anyone outside the top 50.

Her form hasn't been great but I certainly expected more than a first round loss to Shelby Rogers - a girl who was utterly spanked by Ash Barty.
 
This is going to be one awkward handshake. This is a feisty match.

It's always awkward with Genie!

Maria (as much as I love her) is/was the worst in this regard
