My impression of Charlotte Lutz has forever changed after this match. She is a loud girl and a tough cookie!

WD R16
JCH/CHJ 2-3 Pavade/Ch. Lutz (-2, -6, 8, 5, -12)

MS R32
Aruna 3-2 Coton (3) (5, -3, -9, 7, 10)
G5 810, 1210. Just the Coton I knew.
Togami should review this match.

Anyone knows what was that "don't put too much spin on the ball" by the umpire?

This is a deeper field than Lagos so he has a lot of landmines. I wish him the best but I go with Coton.

Quadri just made me look an idiot lol.

Watching their game I was surprised with the amount of unforced errors cotton made in the 3rd and 5th, I reckon the pressure got to him. That said quadri was frying when he was given the chance

Quadri played what I would consider by far his best match of the year and Coton, maybe a result of youth and also coaching, became a bit too predictable. Quadri got better at countering the openers, limiting the effectiveness of the backhand and pushing fast into the forehand to get back to counter since Coton would almost always open cross court. Coton will maybe learn to control his risk better as he gets older? But it could easily have been otherwise, it was deuce in the 5th after all and for most of the match, Coton looked like he was in control.

Coton was brilliant at the World Team Championships, but he had trouble handling Aruna here 🥺

Not to take anything away from Hitomi, who one could argue is playing like she's the best chopper in the world, but Miyuu's performance is really inconsistent.

Kihara has fallen so far off the path it is heartbreaking to some degree. Hope she rediscovers her fire.
