Jo playing outstanding tennis at the moment. Serve in particular has been excellent, which has built so much confidence in delivering her as per usual aggressive gameplan. Svitolina has also dropped off a bit, not looking her usual solid self in the 3rd

Yay, well done !!

Jo is now live ranked 36 though her Cincy ( @ New York ) 2020 SF points ( though a week later last year ) may drop after Cincy 2021, on 23/08 ( the relevant date for US Open seedings ). I lose track of the WTA ranking intentions.

Really though just great for her to find such form after the time she has had for a while and particularly in recent weeks.

Hope she can keep it up for the rest of this tournament and indeed onwards

Bizarrely I'm not surprised. Her last match before her Covid woes showed a bit of the old Jo and maybe the extra forced rest gave her knee a rest. One thing abuot Covid, you can't actually train through it.

Live tennis shows her 5 week ranking as dropping circa 780 points down to around 1050 after the next few weeks, putting her effectively 70th or so, including this weeks results so far. She presumably has other points ie us open and cinci coming off?
