Do you have any link for that?

 

It might take a while before WTA confirms it.

http://www.sznews.com/news/content/mb/2023-02/02/content_30057145.htm

 

It's reported by a Shenzen local government-owned media and also published on local newspaper. It listed all major sport events that Shenzhen will hold this year. Apart from WTA Finals, events like Shenzhen marathon, Diamond League Shenzhen stage, Ice Hockey Women's WCH and Badminton BWF750 level tournament are also mentioned.

WTA 250 finals:

 

Hua Hin

:CHN Zhu Lin def. :UKR Lesia Tsurenko 6-4 6-4

 

Lyon

:USA Alycia Parks def. :FRA Caroline Garcia 7-6(7) 7-5

 

For both winners it's the first WTA title. Parks won two minor 125s last December (and she's become a true indoor hard speciallist since all three events were indoor hard).

So Pliskova has to play qualifying in Doha but Mattek-Sands, Sherif, and Zvonareva got wildcards? This is an absolute joke!

 

Wildcards were also previously announced for Krejcikova, Rybakina, and Muguruza but they all either got in after withdrawals or withdrew themselves. And Azarenka got a wildcard too. Some of these choices are fair but some are completely ridiculous!

 

Pliskova is a former world number one and her ranking fell because of injury, I'd like to know, what is the reason to give Muguruza one? She was healthy all year as far as I know and her ranking fell due to bad results.

Ons Jabeur has WD from Doha & Dubai so if there's any hope for some Arab support then it's your best guess now. Sherif probablt got WC line as the second best Muslim player on tour but Mattek-Sands and Zvonareva make no sense whatsoever. Muguruza has WD from Doha & Dubai anyway. Rybakina is out of Doha too. This Middle East swing is taking some hits but the more important Indian Wells/Miami double lies ahead after all.

    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • There is no snow in Lillehammer 
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.
