    Yeah but to be fair they are reporting to the 52% of the population that wanted this result and not the small % that didn't know the other was even possible a few weeks ago. ;-)

    Thank you. You not think Konta isn't a little bit jealous? I do. The rest seem genuinely pleased.

    It’s not just Jo Konta steaming in. Here’s Tim Burgess, criticising Emma’s sleeping patterns.

    This thread has gone weird. I know nothing about tennis. I watched the match. Two young girls who went beyond what they or anyone else could have expected. There was a winner and a loser because that's the way it works. Well done to both of them. Perhaps they achieved what they did because they enjoy what they do. Meanwhile social media - the circus of the damned - dissects and interprets their every move like the poor diseased animal it really is.

    The Daily Mail won't be impressed.

    Currently a set down in Romania on Amazon Prime if anyone wants to watch. She won't be wanting to lose two matches out of two since winning the US Open.

    Hopefully she comes back stronger. In hindsight, sacking her coach and going out on the **** for three weeks after the US Open wasn’t the ideal preparation for the rest of the season.

    Was disappointed to see she/her ‘team’ sacked her coach after she won the US Open.
    Seemed a little harsh to me and the kind of thing that can often lead to a decline in fortunes.
    Hope I’m wrong but can’t help thinking if it ain’t broke it don’t need fixing.

    I would agree with that. I don't blame her enjoying her US Open victory but sacking her coach seems silly. She probably didn't need as many engagements between New York and defeat in her first match back at Indian Wells.
