      Well done Ash! It was a great fight. She was challenged many times after an easy first set. Was a great win.

        I went to bed after the second set with that gnawing familiar feeling, so I was very pleased to wake up to this news.

        What a champ. A true inspiration on a number of levels that kids should aspire to be like.

          Yeah In the 2nd set it was looking eerily similar to her semi final against Kerber in the Aus open this year. Hopefully this gives her confidence going forward.

            Kyrgios beats world number 1 Medvedev to advance to quarter final in US Open 2022

            Looking pretty good to get to final

                    Djokovic wins record 23rd Slam and I think it won't end there

                          Four sets too.

                          Kyrgios said before the Djokovic and Popyrin match “I got a feeling Pop is about to turn into a superstar next year will be his best year”

                          Australian tennis is starting to build again, hopefully we start seeing a few more in the top 20 again.
