Week 26 - WTA500 - Bad Homburg, Germany - Grass


Unlike the LTA, the draws for qualifying, singles and doubles have all been published on the WTA website. Just the one entry though (hardly surprising)

L16:- Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) / Olivia Nichols (GBR) CR61 (29+32) v Timeas Babos (HUN) / Luisa Stefani (BRA) CR51 (25+26)  [4]

(Gradually getting closer yo the seedings in these events)

Sakkari called Poots out yesterday for a terrible handshake. Convo at net and after was reported as something like

nice handshake' - Maria
'what do you want me to do, take a bow? - Poots
'no, just look at me like a human being' - Maria
'I was a human being, you can piss off.' Poots

For Maria to get upset it must have been something. Weve commented before the marked difference between men and women at the net post match, it is so marked.

This is the clip 

You can clearly hear Sakkari shouting 'nobody likes you' to Poots several times 

And I think she says Poots it acting like a 12 year-old

 On llive rankings, Olivia+Tereza already have a better CR than their seeded opponents.

Liv and partner 7th in the race as well. Keep going and could be China in their hands!

The Wimbledon doubles draws take place on Friday 28 - I assume that the current official rankings (23/06) are the ones that will be used for seedings.

I make Liv and Tereza the 9th seeds.

Have faith you can come up with a Saudi pun Jon. Although perhaps we shouldn't be making any puns about Saudi.
