Seems like a lot of people leaving. Hopefully just people without RLA access. This match should be good. I really, really hope Sabalenka doesn’t choke tonight. Cmon girl, you deserve this. Let’s do it!

Can’t agree

Go Magna!
 
Dokic picked Rybakina. I would like Dokic to receive an Australian of the Year Award. She is such a joy to watch and is really learning the art of interviewing. I would love for another network to pick her up during the season.

Jelena the only commentator with a brain lol

Lol Sabalenka blasted an amazing winner first point after being broken. Crowd gave her nothing. It’s not even 10pm. Are they all asleep? Wake up. It’s like me being given death stares by the oldies in Adelaide because my clapping was “loud”.

???? So that no Aussies get to hear her during Grand Slam tournaments?

I get the impression that Jelena doesn't want to go jetting around the world following the tour.
 
Whatever happens tonight, Rybakina will be in top 10 soon and should be there for the foreseeable. Only reason she isn’t already top 5-10 is the non counting of points at Wimbledon last year.
Djokovic would be number 1, Kyrigos would be top 10 etc. etc.

I love Rybakina. What a performance. From court 13 to the final, shove it AO organisers. She is a star.
Real disrespect of the Wimbledon winner. Weird.

Djokovic would be number 1, Kyrigos would be top 10 etc. etc.
Yup.
Hard for Iga to get beaten in 4th round by essentially a top 5 player that was incorrectly seeded.

No not during GS

I'm sure some overseas broadcasters would have approached Jelena to see if she is interested in doing commentary (as she is very good) but she doesn't seem interested.

With Channel 9 having the rights to the Slams (and the AO season) she seems more comfortable just doing it down here including calling matches from RG, Wimby or NY from some studio downunder). I guess 10 weeks or so of work a year is enough to pay her bills.
