As it's the 5th set , the winner should win 10 points In tie break not 7 

Since when???😲

AO mumbojumbo, because it's cool.

Yes, every deciding set has different rules at every GS now - AO (10 point TB), FO (old school two games advantage), Wimbledon (7 point TB at 12-12) and USO (7 point TB).

 

Amanda Anisimova beat Naomi Osaka 10-5 in third set TB! Guess she might be back after two terrible years. Paula Badosa also through.

Anisimova defeated Osaka in another decisive tie break today , not really surprising result as osaka didn't deliver anything since winning AO back in 2021

I like Osaka, but finally her ranking (and Kenin's as well) should be where it deserves to be according to the commitment to the tour.

Great to see Anisimova is getting slowly back. Would be terrible if she didn't fulfill her potential.

Just wanted to see Barty-Osaka match, but this one works too

After yesterday loss in doubles tournament  Samantha Stosur officialy ended career.

Sabalenka survives another 1st set loss and moves forward to 4th Rd

Coolest pictures of AO, Azarenka and her son

I really would love seeing her raising another GS, she sacrificed her career for her child and wasted almost 3 ys for him 

[Monzanator 4,579]

Alize Cornet wins on her 32nd birthday and advances to R4. Still no GS QF for her and it might be impossible with Simona Halep next up.

 

Sorana Cirstea beat Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in three sets and plays Iga Swiatek next.
