It's not round-robin anymore?

No, it was only round robin the first year.

This would have been SO much more fun to predict as round robin

The match took two and half hours, most of which consisted of Hantuchova fixing her hair.

[Lunims]

I'm watching Vinci v Ivanovic. Ivanovic went up 4-0 and closed out the first set 6-3. They're on serve in the second (Ivanovic to serve at 1-2).

If I had a gun to my head (and I do! OMGOMGOMGOMG) I would still pick Vinci to win the match. She's started to anticipate Ivanovic a bit better and find her rhythm.

Thought: Ivanovic is the opposite of Maria Sharapova. No matter what's going on in the match she looks terrible, like she's in the beginning stages of childbirth.

Thought: Vinci's game is almost exactly like Amelie Mauresmo's. She uses her wide shoulders to put heavy spin on the ball and has surprisingly nimble feet and likes to attack the net.

[Lunims]

I just found out Petrova beat Peng! Shut up! Stoked.

6-4 6-3

[Lunims]

Did I say Vinci would pull out the second set and the win? What I meant to say is she would lose her mind and collapse like a stack of Jenga blocks in a hurricane.

After Day 1, my picks are 1-1 -- pure chance results.

It's not your fault Charlie, Roberta is just under the same impression as the rest of the WTA: whoever can have the most dramatic collapse at a point that doesn't even come close to warranting it IS the winner.
