    Genie Blonde Tart

    The girl lost to Ying-Ying Duan at Wimbledon. Obviously her game is in free-fall. Think she's only won 2 matches since Indian Wells.

    But... she wins today, right? :|

    Ha- Genie Blonde Tart.

    Maaan, my heart wants to take her as a dog today, but my brain is saying "ehh, I don't know". At some point, she HAS to win again, right?? I really see no way to cap this, other than flipping a coin on which Genie Tart shows up.

    I'm actually heading down to Cinci to watch her this evening, so maybe I will make a small play to add to the excitement ; )

    Believe me I am torn on this also.. want to bet her today ..
    but holding off..
    she may win, but there is definite risk. Fired her 6-mo. coach,
    has temporary one but it's up in the air..
    plus she was flaky in Toronto getting blown out in 2 of her 3 sets..
    and Bondarenko is a steady player on the upswing with no mental problems,
    plus it was a long time ago but she's beaten Genie before.
    Add on this that Genie had adbdominal pains just 2 weeks ago
    and the bet has substantial risk.

    I was also tempted by Dolgopolov to beat Tomic as well, but they're both too risky. Going to exercise some self-control!

    fading her again tomorrow. she only won as her opponent made too many enforced errors, some good signs though but i cant expect her to play consistently under pressure.

    Yes, there is no way that she can defeat Svitolina by being so erratic. And she is far from those days where she could use fast surface to overpower constant players who lack pace. So round 2 should be the end for her.

    Yeah, I can't back Genie (at least with money) today.

    I kind of like Schmiedlova today. Saw her play against Radwanska yesterday, looked pretty good.

    You really got a picture with her? Did she smell nice?? Mmmm... She looks like she smells nice.

    Can't believe I passed on both her and Dolgopolov. Idiot

    Yes, she really did. Of the matches I've watched, I was most impressed with Schmiedlova and Shvedova.

    Haha, it was kind of blur. I was starstruck. Made edit, just because I'm not sure about internet, identity, and all that...

    She lost the second set anyways, wouldn't of mattered if she won the first set. If it went three, she would of choked like usual.. That was almost a given..

    Bouchard has lost her tennis ways, so sad she will "try" to be another Anna, lol.. Doesn't mattered if she fired her coach I thought I heard, she is a mess and will be for some time. Great fade material for the rest of the year

    Genie will find her way again. She's simply too good to be a flash in the pan.

    Apparently, Jimmy Connors is now coaching Genie.

    Not sure how I feel about this. He coached Andy Roddick for almost 2 years, then Pova for one match... I really hope he can get something out of her.

    my father was a Wilson rep for awhile in the 80's
    he said that, not only was Connors the biggest, most-conceited asshole he'd ever met as far as pros go, but he's at the top of that same list as far as anyone he ever had to deal with. Just a pure shit-stain of a human.

    Yeah, if you read Agassi's book he mentions what a huge dick this guy is.

    From Stephanie Myles - Yahoo! Sports Canada "Eh Game" blog:

    Quote:
    Eh Game has learned that Connors is not, in fact, Bouchard's new, official, permanent coach. The two will collaborate at the US Open. Beyond that, who knows?

    (Nothing official from the Bouchard camp on this until early evening, when the official statement through her agents indicated that Bouchard and Connors have "been friends for a few years" and that he was helping her out this week while he was in New York City.

    And that there were no long-term plans "at this time.")
