Sad news for me....was a big big fan...BUT was difficult last years....so time for her to enjoy life.

 

[gaby]

Yes....as expected easy easy win for RYBA 6-2, 6-2....third title this year...will b ready for R.GARROS in few weeks.....and she will leave with a brand new PORSCHE.....she said she has no licence driver........not a so big deal....lol.

 

[gaby]

BARCELONE....RUUD won vs TSITSIPAS.... il a pris sa revanche de Monte -Carlo la semaine dernière.....his first ATP500 title....BRAVO....a nice kid.

 

[gaby]

MUNICH...FÉLIX lost in quarters to STRUFF who wins the open devant une foule acquise.....his first title.

 

[gaby]

MADRID......Leylah lost round/32 to JABEUR in 3 sets....was leading 2-0 third set BUT as often elle s'est écroulée....c'est son manque de constance et ses doubles fautes qui marquent son jeu depuis la saison dernière.

Félix mène actuellement 5-0 vs boring MANNARINO....round/64....no problem there....will come later...lolll

BUT how pleasant it was to see NADAL back at home and winning vs De Minaur/coriace player.....fans were crazy all over the place and even the KING/SPAIN était de la fête...great great moment....GO RAFA....

 

[gaby]

MADRID......oh surprise FÉLIX élimine RUUD--l'un des meilleurs joueurs actuels...et jouera SINNER en quarts Jeudi....sa meilleure performance depuis un an....ça va lui faire du bien...MAIS du gros boulot sur la planche Jeudi.

 

[gaby]

Oh....forfait de SINNER et FÉLIX passe en demi-finale....wow....ça fait longtemps ...un peu chanceux....lol.....à suivre.

 

[gaby]

MADRID...toooo bad for RYBA/SEMIS....won 6-1/first set...was leading 4-2 in the second BUT lost 7-5 and 7-6 in the third....so credit to SABALENKA who will play SWIATEK Saturday/FINAL....it would b her third title/Madrid....go ARYNA.

Muguruza Retires; Only Player To Beat Each Williams Sister In A Grand Slam Final

2-time Grand Slam champion Muguruza retires

Former world No. 1 and two-time Grand Slam champion Garbine Muguruza has announced her retirement from tennis.

Another fun fact about Muguruza is that she won 10 singles titles in her career. Among those, 8 titles on hard courts, then Roland Garros and Wimbledon.

 

[gaby]

..plus she was a sweetheart..lol.

 

[gaby]

MADRID....avec le retrait de MEDVEDEV et la défaite de ALCARAZ....la porte est ouverte pour FÉLIX....will play today/semis LEHECKA....c'est prenable....et affronterait possiblement RUBLEV en finale.....ce serait great et très bon pour son moral...et le nôtre....

 

[AirBo]

J'aime bcp Félix mais faut quand même rire un peu de la situation: 3 abandons en 6 matchs et Félix est en finale d'un Masters 1000. Gros match contre Rublev en perspective.

Félix sera frais physiquement pour la finale, et, quoiqu'il se passe, il pourra enchainer Rome la semaine prochaine sans avoir dépensé bcp d'énergie. Belle opportunité!
