    Not only is she a honey, she plays crackling tennis, or at least is at
    this AO. First women's Q since 1978 to make an AO semifinals.

    And that draw at the 78 AO was putrid, so this is a bigger achievement IMO.

    She'll have a chance vs Zheng.

    I like Q Zheng from the class of 2002. She's a very good player. With her win, she breaks into the top 10. One thing that I don't like about Zheng's game is her service toss. There's a really bizarre pause at the start which breaks the fluidity of the
    motion. I hope she can sort that out.

    I don't remember you having any problem with the "evil US" pulling
    the financial rug on Russia in 2022... talk about market
    manipulation.

    I would never dare to suggest that US energy bans on Russia serve purely
    US economic interests. Could be a coincidence that US itself has
    recently become the world's largest exporter of LNG & producer of oil...

    No sign of market manipulation anywhere.
