I have to say, GB have great filed of young and promising girls. I hope Konta's rise will inspire youngsters to do better. Swan and Christie are the ones to watch. From time to time there are flashes from Boulter, Dart. Dunne, Taylor (if any of them fulfills potential, it'll be great). And there are some younger with expectations. Will Robson ever return, I don't know.

Also, another Russian wave probably is going to happen. Kasatkina is one of them and probably bearer. Blinkova, Kalinskaya, Vikhlyantseva, Komardina, Pervushina, Potapova, Zhuk...

Would like to see Hungarian trio of Galfi, Bondar and Stollar doing well...

We have semifinals:

 

Kerber vs. Radwanska

Kuznetsova vs. Cibulkova

 

I think Cibulkova can win her match. She already beat Sveta few weeks ago and fatigue can really cost Sveta this time.

Kerber and Aga... well, curious one, Angie showed more so far. I'd bet on Angie :d

 

 

Kerber vs Radwanska, I expect a great match tomorrow! :clap:

 

And the second match, how interest can it be! Either we'll have a finalist that qualified loosing her first two matches (like Radwanska last year) or we'll have a finalist who got her WTA Finals spot last Saturday, one day before the competition started :p

Radwanska will end this season on 3rd place in WTA Ranking - it's the highest in this career. It's surprising that she didn't higher in previous years.

I think that she can play fantastic one of seasons to 2020, like Kerber in this year. 

But today - Kerber wins with Radwańska and Cibulkova beat tired Kuznetsova.

Well, I'm not surprised about Rodriguez... she's real good and has some potential, unfortunately the Mexican federation does nothing to support and find good coaches for them to improve.

Kerber vs. Cibulkova rematch, just as I wanted :d

 

Sad for Sveta, but once she lost that second set it was inevitable the fatigue will kill her. Together with Domi's incredible fighting spirit :bowdown:

 

Angie might regret she beat Keys :whistle:

    • Someone please tell me every single athlete who didn't qualify for the big air final has at least one more event to go? The chance of athletes' Olympics being done before the opening ceremony would be utterly ridiculous...
    • Don't know what they were saying to each other, but one thing on time management is that there is never any debate in : they just instantly agree with what the other is planning to do.
