Wanderer 1,597 Posted July 26, 2021 #101 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Gold for Osaka is shaping itself slowly. Kvitova with a bagel in last set... Definitely this season seems like a sunset of her career, though I believe she still has few good runs in her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,569 Posted July 26, 2021 #102 Share Posted July 26, 2021 I don't see it. Kvitova will be 32yo next year. This is a steady decline which might offer one dead cat bounce and that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got annoyed at her for choosing to withdraw from doubles due to an "injury" (which apparently does not affect her singles play). This could have cost our doubles player Darija Jurak her Olympic status (you don't become an Olympian unless you start), but looks like she got accepted for the mixed doubles tournament so should be fine after all.

szy123 79 Posted July 26, 2021 #105 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Hey guys, is this list final? https://olympics.com/tokyo-2020/olympic-games/en/results/tennis/entries-by-event-mixed-doubles.htm Iga Świątek was to play mixed doubles and talked about it even today, but neither she nor Kubot are on the list and I am worried. The document with qualifying Rules I found says two things at the same time: that entries should be made by 20 july and that the exact date is tbd. I thought it's open until tomorrow but now I'm puzzled. I am unashamed, at getting nothing done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, until seeing this comment I also was worried that someone could forgot sign up Świątek and Kubot for that event.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
