Sabalenka.

She seems to want it SO bad.

Ps…I want Venus to take Chris Evert’s job.

I kinda like all the semi-finalists. Sabalenka looks like someone I know, so I’m going with her.

they dragged Maria into the booth.

Congrats to Ons on making her second GSF. 😃

Hoping next match will be a tighter affair.

And Bethanie Mattek-Sands looks like she is dressed for the night shift at a brothel.

I was a fan of MJF, too. Shame she never won a slam.

Mary Jo Fernandez looks like she did at 18. The woman does not age!

She is an excellent analyst. I wish she called more matches.

Mary Jo, Renee Stubbs, Patrick McEnroe.

They’re great. Not too much yak yak.

Can’t put my finger on it. I think Chrissie is always just thinking she would be better then the women now. Where as Mary Jo is so proud of what these new up and commers are doing. Just different deliveries.

They were commentators together, I think, for a few years before Ashe succumbed to Aids.

And also Cliff Drysdale when they commentated together. Now all Cliff does is ask stupid leading questions to the other comms in the booth.
