Awe man I was watching that Hamburg Open live when that happened. I was always a huge Steffi Graf fan but I respected Seles even though she invented the grunt I’ve learned to live with it.

It’s like Chrissy won’t give credit to Kenin. It’s why she needs to stop doing matches and do just interviews. Mary Joe is so better at matches.

JohnnyMac is the same way also. He’s just so condescending to some players.

Evert has been complimentary about Kenin coming from Russia very young and broke with her family and her work ethic. I can’t post links my bad but there’s a YouTube video of a 6 year old Kenin with her dad and she’s saying she will be a Grand Slam champion like Andy Roddick. It’s pretty funny she was locked in as a child.

Uh oh, Diego is fighting hard with Novak.

I’m talking about tonight solely. I’m sure she has been in past.

What a rip by Gauff

Damn Gauff pull winners out of nowhere on every pivotal point it seems.

Come on Kenin hang in there. It’s a conundrum to have to choose between two outstanding young Americans but I’ve been a Kenin fan since French Open. Serena, Madison Keys, Kenin, then the rest.

That’s how you close a set. I get they love CoCo for obvious reasons. But Kenin is showing how she is a warrior. If she had Georgi type serve oh Lordy she’d be devastating

If you get Gauff running she gets impatient and tries to outslug you it still seems.

Kenin is crushing the ball now. She can not give this break back to CoCo.

Gauff is just so quick in running down the ball CoCo is even quicker than my little Romanian Simona Halep in chasing drop shots.

Looks like it’s coming to an end here, but I’ll definitely be pulling for Kenin from now on.

Check out her YouTube video on her history it’s pretty interesting. They bolted from Russia when she was a toddler but Kenin stayed she wanted to be an American. Sharapova came here too but her loyalty was to Russia. Lenin won me over with her back story and her upset of Serena at Roland Garros. There’s no way Sofia should lose this match up 3-0 in the third.

ETA: No don’t give this break back Sonya.

I think that sealed the Gauff fate. She may get bageled as she’s lost it in her mind


She’s given up. See that’s part of why I said wait on her.

I fricking love Kenin's cocky ball toss after each service game.

These two are doing America proud.
