It’s the right ankle injury Coco got at Wimbledon. Never been right since. Guess they were thinking of still making the WTA doubles finals. Think it’s time for her now to close the season down and get the ankle 100%.

Wuhan QF’s. Barty (16) is the only seeded player still standing. So the opening is certainly there to go one better than last year.

no shame in that. Wang is red hot atm.
Puig is another player returning to form. This is her best month since the Olympics.
and Schmieds lost in Central Asia.

I didn't know Barty was the only seed left in Wuhan. In semis now.
Made the final last year in wuhan and is defending a bunch of points, so this is a great result!

And has Sabalenka up next. gulp.
There might be no seeds left but there are a lot of good players still left. Womens tennis bats so deep now.

Sabalenka is a tough opponent. Very powerful player

Yes, her game is brute force and very little else. At least Barty knows what to expect after that tight first round match in Melbourne which she won. Remember that match for the crowd constantly mocking Sabalenka for her screeching and the umpire calling for quiet.

She has the most annoying grunt. Her game has improved since the AO match, and she did pretty well at the US Open

A lot of points for Barty to defend this week so whatever happens tonight, it's still a good result. With the way Sablenka is playing, it's going to be tough.

Wang Qiang is forced to retire in the first semi. shame for her and her local fans. Heres hoping she can get up next week for the biggest tournament in China.

Wouldn't want to run into Sabalenka in a dark alley.
Makes Mauresmo look feminine.

TB first set.
playing exactly how you think it was going to go. Barty is trying to keep Sab on the back foot with the variety of shots, or else Sab smashes it past her.

Sab is going to be hard to beat in the future. Very athletic and powerful.

I think she is hard to beat now. She was the closest to beating Osaka at New York.
Has improved so much since Hobart. So much more consistent.

She's definitely improved since January. Unlike Ostapenko who is also powerful , Sab's shots actually go in and less erratic

Holy moly, she missed a first serve. Sab is serving like a monster
Barry didn't get one shot back in that game.
