Damn Barbora not playing well at all. Schmeds played well. I've turned into Kerber, she is playing really well and took the first set in a tight tiebreaker.
Babs looked exhausted (and her playing doubles isn't helping this), so did Paulini, not really a surprise the ones that went deep in Wimbledon all have crashed out, scheduling was farcicial it couldn't be better but both Babs and Paulini looked spent first round out there, they got through on pure talent. Tip my hat to Donna Vekic who must be as fit as can be to cope with this schedule.
Men is a little different and Novak/Carlos are that far ahead of the rest they may get through on talent, though Novak has a nightmare draw from now.
