Even though the women's game is quite fluid in terms of who's in/out of the top 10, if she can sneak in and hang on that will be huge for her development. Only recently have I seen her play more (saw a bit of last year's match v Sharapova) and am quite impressed. Still has rust at times but wow she is confident and aggressive. Good luck to her!
    Yes exactly with higher seeding comes easier early round matchups. She is trending upwards and could easily have a major in her trophy case by the end of next season. Women's tennis is like that and the players get hot for about 2 years and cash-in good. I'm pulling for her for sure. She is very impressive.

    Raonic and Bouchard both still rolling and Eugenie is doing well in the first set of the semis this morning. These two are stars!

    She's kicking the crap out of Halep, who is a top player on the tour right now.

    She probably has the inside track on it, but Raonic might have something to say about that as well!

    She looked great today. Her game is so well rounded. Really love her aggressiveness and and her mental strength. All of the great women players like Williams and Sharapova have the tendency to get rattled when the play goes against them, but Eugenie is always SO composed. I really like her in the final against Kvitova on Saturday. She has a huge future.

    Especially after Halep got the ace at match point when Eugenie clearly wasn't ready. She ended up losing that game and even though she had a huge lead I was a little nervous it might throw her off her game and give Halep an opportunity to make a comeback.

    Sadly, she wasn't able to pull it off today. She is only 20 years old. She has a huge future and will be back. We'll see you in the US open, Eugenie!

    She had a great tourney but she wasn't even close today. Kvitova was a beast today.
