Rats, Bianca just ran out of gas and Goerges wins going away 6-1 in the third set. Still, a fantastic week for Bianca.

Thanks for all of your great updates, dash. It was a little too late for me.

She battled a cold, back trouble and such all week, and yet she made the final and clearly won over that NZ crowd. Awesome stuff!

As far as the Canadian men and the Aussie Open are concerned, Milos is seeded 16th and Denis is seeded 25th. Vasek will not be playing due to a back injury. Also, the following guys are in the qualification round:

Here are the stats from the Shapo-Sousa match. Suggests a very sloppy match was played if the UE stats are correct.

Obviously, 8 double faults suggests he hasn't worked out the kinks in his serve as of yet. More concerning are a total of 78 unforced errors, that's a high number for a five set match, let alone three.

This is still my concern with his mom being so involved in his game at this point. They got here together by playing a certain way, a way that you can get away with at the lower levels by going for your shots nearly all of the time. I really believe he would benefit from an experienced outside voice with some new tactics for him to focus on.

At this level, you're going to make mistakes on much better balls coming at you if you're constantly trying to paste lines. If he can't adjust and reign in some of these needless UE's he's going to find it impossible to start moving any further up the rankings.

Yeah, given that it doesn't seem to be getting much better, a change in management is the obvious solution. I'm starting to worry that he is more or less what he is, which is still fun to watch but certainly not a threat to be a top 5 player.
