WTA

Then again, Yastremska played really good in Dubai and won last time they played. Maybe tennis is a good distraction for her? 

Any thoughts on this one? 

Might skip this game and see how Yastremska plays and back her the rest of the tournament instead if she wins.

Yeah I’d probably skip or play bogdan. See how Yastre reacts. Not sure if you saw she played doubles with her sister yesterday they got smoked but obviously that’s different. You could look at her body language there 

Thanks for your input bro. I didn't watch the game just saw they got a wildcard for that, and she played with her 15-year old sister who played her first-ever WTA match. So I guess in double it was just for the other pair to aim at her. 

On Wikipedia, it says that Dayana lives in Lyon, don't know if that is just for tax purposes or if she actually lives there. So it wouldn't be that bad for her to play

this tournament in her hometown before going over to USA for Indian Wells and Miami. 

I see a lot of people on her social support her from Ukraina, and it won't surprise me if she wants to win this and give the prize money away like Svitolina said she would before she withdrew. Dayana can use some good PR after her doping ban. 

Fernandez L. A 2-0

 ¡BRAVO! Estoy de acuerdo con la decisión de Svitolina. Lo que NO me gusta son los Asesinatos en Masa, porque de verdad eso NO es Progreso.Nadie debería desear la Guerra.  La guerra es un mal que deshonra al género humano.

@PapaMaracaibo15

 I disagreed with her at first because the Belrussian and russian players are as innocent as the ukrainians but her demands about not showing the flags and playing the anthems is reasonable. I don't think these players should be banned but their countries should not be put on display.

@Petyr_Baelish

 Difícil decisión, de verdad que la guerra es un mal NO deseado. Oremos para que lo comenzó culmine pronto.

 La clave sobre la invasión rusa de Ucrania está en la historia reciente de un país valiente que lleva décadas luchando por reafirmar su independencia»

Any play on Korpatsch/Dodin?

Ukrainian rubbish, Israel is stealing bits of land every month from the Palestine for over 70 years now and nobody cares, so fuck the Ukrainian as well. No one complained when innocent afghans got bombed nor Iraqi seen their children blown to pieces, there is only 1 scripted scenario on every news outlet in the world pushing a certain narrative. Free palestine

@Skill-token

 Yes you are right, there is a big double standard in the world especially from the western world. 

people only care about what their local news station talks about. 

..

Ukraine had nothing to do with innocent Afghans dying so why say fuck ukraine? They are just as innocent. It's not covered in the media as much for sure but I can tell you in the US there's always uproar when the US drone strikes take out civilians to kill one target.

You think ever 1 Ukrainian protested against western aggression upon the afghans? Or Iraqis or Palestine or any other African country

@Skill-token

 Idk, I don't live there. But wrong is wrong and one doesn't justify the other. Especially when they are unrelated. Just seems like you have the same double standard but opposite side.

I don't wanna get in a political rant on bjorns thread, all I'm saying is both scenarios are wrong and we should condemn both.

Wow

Not even mad about Yastremska, both played great! I can see Yastremska - Garcia in the final. This would be a perfect tournament for Yastremska to win 250p that she really need for her ranking (140), Clara Tauson won this last year and Sofia Kenin before, so lots of young players.

Last year RUS won the double here, and tomorrow she is an underdog in the first round. I think Rus played really good in her singles, earlier today.

RUS/MINNEN 2.2

BOL

Golubic+Cristea 2-0 + Van Utyvanck + Yastremska+Fernandez

For someone who supposedly withdrew . . .Svitolina certainly played well . . . .
