All Russian final in Den Bosch -> defending champion Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Veronika Kudermetova.

 

All British final in Nottingham -> Katie Boulter vs Jodie Burrage (both in their first WTA final ever). Also the first all-British WTA final since... 1975 :coffee:

:GBR Katie Boulter wins Nottingham 250 over Jodie Burrage 6-3 6-3. This is only the second time in the last 20 years a player has won WTA title without having to face an opponent ranked inside Top 130 in the world :p

That's a major shock as I didn't expect her back problems to be as serious. She will always have that insane 2021 season (mostly the second half of it) culminated by the YEC final.

Well, the Den Bosch final will be repeated in Berlin QF. Alexandrova blasted Cori Gauff 6-4 6-0 winning 11 of the last 12 games while Kudermetova beat #2 Aryna Sabalenka in straight sets.

:CZE Petra Kvitova def. :CRO Donna Vekic 6-2 7-6(6)

 

Birmingham 250

:LAT Jelena Ostapenko def. :CZE Barbora Krejcikova 7-6(8) 6-4

 

Fun fact: Kvitova and Ostapenko will meet in R1 in Eastbourne most likely on Tuesday. They actually played the 2022 final there.

I really think the ATP and WTA need to work together to plan out finals scheduling. It is ridiculous that every week we have multiple finals from different tournaments going on at the same time. It would be better for all if they were somewhat spaced out...

:KAZ Elena Rybakina has withdrawn from Eastbourne and apparently she is still feeling the effects of virus that forced her to withdraw mid-event from Roland Garros :mumble:

    • Brilliant, we get something new to follow right after the Winter Olympics, and in such a great way too, with footbal.
    • It was mentioned on Reddit with people saying Dutch media have mentioned it. 
    • Unlikely because the BBC doesn’t earn extra money if something gets good ratings and budget was a big issue.    Also Birmingham 2022 didn’t do great in the ratings which I suspect influenced things as well.  
    • Biggest changes in the number of top 8 if compared to 2022.   Positive: +29 +28 +13 +12 +10 +10 +8 +8   Negative: -8 -6 -5 -5

    • There was a lot of good stuff with the BBC coverage - although some of the presenter did go a bit over the top, and the fillers that they used were pretty cringeworthy.    If there's one thing they need to figure out is how to show events like this without having the constant switching - from the channel to IPlayer and back to channel.  
    • I mean if we start talking about the impacts of sliding tracks, then the discussion needs to go to speed skating venues (btw, French Alps, don't you have fairground halls hanging round, I mean EVEN Italy could do that) and ski jumping hills for that matter as well.
    • Thanks everyone for their words. Situation has improved, at least in the last few hours.   Still, classes were suspended in the states of Jalisco and Nayarit, and most employers told office and service workers to remain home, with some of us doing home office.   No major casualties among civilians, but hard to tell as I said, federal government put a chokehold on major and local news and social media, in part to avoid major panic, in part to enforce their corrupt narrative in which they insist “everything is calm”.   Hard to believe when yesterday a 6 million people metro area, along many other localities and rural areas, emptied business, malls, restaurants and stop all activities for 15 hours or so just of pure fear of becoming another number of cartel and allies casualty list.    This morning you can hear some cars, and even people down the street again, compared to yesterday which had an eerie silence.    
    • So if 7-8 indoor sports go from Summer Olympics to Winter Olympics it's not wrong. However I don't want sports repeated.   Indoor sports will be played indoor whether in summer or winter.    Yes it might dilute the winter sports a bit, but then both games may get good revenue and can keep a larger global audience interested. I can't follow all the sports at summer games it's a lot but comparatively winter games have the space to add sports.    If I have to choose Indoor sports into winter games: - Judo - Taekwondo or Karate  - Handball - 3x3 Basketball  - TT or Badminton  - Squash - Volleyball - Chess   I think this would make the programme more balanced and will deliver blockbuster Olympics every 2 years   I know this might be an unpopular opinion here in the forum, which is fine.
    • It's weird to talk about attendance in %. Whats better 97% of a smaller stands or 90% of a bigger one?
