Patiofurniture just beat Valeria Solovieva 7-5, 6-4 with 25 dfs! She's too young to know how to properly tank.

I really hope those double faults were in honor of Lena getting hitched.
But I really hope Nastia's not injured, she usually doesn't have crazy serve stats like this.

Khrisanova was obviously not a great use of a wildcard.

BOVINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It might have taken a retirement, but Aravane just won two consecutive matches for the first time since July of 2010 (Palermo).

Pavs just apologized in a two-part tweet for her atrocious serving this tournament (@nastia_pav): "Guys,I'm sorry but with this serve I ve had this tournament ,was impossible to play and win matches!that's very pity!I was changing the / Serve before this tournament ,but I think its time to come back to the old one and keep improving !I hope this will never happen again!"

(Apparently it was 27 DFs today, lost in 3.)

nastia_pav I never try to find any excuses,just totally blame myself after each loose,I have to accept loosing ,its very tough,but makes me stronger!
