Wk.38- Osaka²

And in Week 38, a familiar face returned to the winner's circle...



Oh, yeah. I remember her.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Naomi Osaka/JPN
...well, Osaka surely handled *this* coaching ejection better than the last one. On the court, at least.



After dispensing of Sascha Bajin in the aftermath of a second straight slam title and rise to #1, Osaka's growing pains were evident in the following months. Jermaine Jenkins arrived as a replacement soon after Bajin's exit, but so did a return of some of the inconsistency of results that had plagued her *before* she'd hired last year's WTA Coach of the Year. Osaka's announcement in the days after the U.S. Open that she'd parted ways with Jenkins weren't stunning, just slightly surprising in that they came with the better part of two months remaining on the schedule. Not only that, that schedule consisted of the autumn Asian swing during which Osaka would be placed in the spotlight as the biggest name in the sport not only in Japan, but pretty much the entire region.

Well, so far, so good. With her dad handling the coaching duties, Osaka, as she did while handling the pressure of defending her U.S. Open crown (her Round of 16 result was more than respectable, especially considering she arrived in New York with an injury question due to her knee), seemed at ease with the landscape and her place in it Osaka, the city of her birth and her mom's hometown (Naomi and her sister Mari were given their mother's maiden name for practical purposes in Japanese society).

Playing in the city for the first time since 2014, Osaka didn't drop a set en route to the title, her first since winning the Australian Open in January. Wins over Viktoriya Tomova, Yulia Putintseva, Elise Mertens and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova locked away career WTA title #4.
===============================================
RISERS: Karolina Muchova/CZE and Magda Linette/POL
...Muchova has made all the moves necessary for a breakout season in 2019. After debuting her slam career at last year's U.S. Open with a 3rd Round finish, she reached a QF this summer at SW19 (recording her first Top 10 win over countrywoman Karolina Pliskova), cracked the Top 50 *and* backed up her NYC run by once again winning two MD matches. But she'd yet to win a tour title, falling in three sets in her maiden final in Prague this spring against Jil Teichmann. In Seoul, she took care of that unfinished business. Wins over Alison Van Uytvanck, Timea Babos, Priscilla Hon and Wang Yafan got the Czech into a second final, where this time she handled Magda Linette in straights to become the season's 14th first-time champ. She'll break into the Top *40* on Monday, landing at #37 as she looks for still more signposts to knock down on her way to the Top 20 next season (at the latest).



In the absence of retired Aga Radwanska and with Iga Swiatek somewhat in the still-in-development stage (she announced a split with her coach this week), Linette has essentially become (for the time being, at least) the face of Polish tennis. She's handled her new role well, as the 27-year old won her biggest title in three years at a $100K challenger in June, matched her career best slam result with a 3rd Round run at Wimbledon, claimed her first tour title in the Bronx just before the start of the U.S. Open, then won a round at Flushing Meadows (ultimately losing in the 2nd to Naomi Osaka). Two weeks ago, she reached a career high ranking of #45. In Seoul, the advanced to the final without dropping a set, defeating the likes of Irina-Camelia Begu, Anastasia Potapova, Kirsten Flipkens and Ekaterina Alexandrova. She got just two games off Muchova in the final, but will come in at a new career high of #42 this week.


===============================================
SURPRISES: Kristie Ahn/USA and Viktorija Golubic/SUI
...Ahn's story continued in Seoul. Still basking in the glow of her Round of 16 U.S. Open run, the 27-year old Bannerette took a wild card into the MD and proceeded to double-babel Timea Bacsinszky and outlast Ana Bogdan in a 3rd set TB to reach the QF. Ekaterina Alexandrova finally ended her run, but it took three sets and 22 aces to get the job done. Still, Ahn's third career WTA QF result (Nottingham '17 & San Jose '19) will lift her to a new career high of #88.



In Guangzhou, Golubic reached her first tour-level semi since October '17 in Linz. Coming in off a Nanchang QF result, the Swiss posted wins over Wang Xiyu, Katerina Siniakova and Zhang Shuai to give herself five MD WTA wins in the last two weeks, nearly as many as she had (7) from January through August combined.

===============================================
VETERANS: Samantha Stosur/AUS and Angelique Kerber/GER
...already having dipped this season to her lowest singles ranking since January 2004, 35-year old Stosur entered the week at #129. A three-time winner at this time of the season of the Japan Women's Open title (last week's Hiroshima event, when it was held in Osaka from 2009-14), Stosur got a wild card into this week's tournament in Guangzhou. She took advantage of the opportunity, notching career win #600 (the 23rd woman to do so in tour history) with a victory over Tereza Martincova, then followed up with three more over Bernarda Pera, Nina Stojanovic and Viktorija Golubic to reach career final #25, her first since winning Strasbourg in May 2017.



It was also Stosur's first appearance in a final in China (running her career total to 14 final nations in WTA play, along with five more in doubles finals and ITF action). She fell in three sets to Sofia Kenin, but will rise to #92 in the new rankings. It was an encouraging week for the Aussie, who noted that, "It’s a reminder that good results can be just around the corner if you just keep believing in yourself." She'd already put together her best doubles campaign since 2009 this season, her best in a decade, having come in at #15 and earlier this year winning the Australian Open WD crown and reaching the Miami final with Zhang Shuai.



Meanwhile, Osaka saw Kerber finally break out of her summer slump with her first win since Wimbledon, ending her five-match losing streak. Already with a 1st Round bye, she got the benefit of avoiding an immediate "do-over" attempt vs. the most recent player to defeat her -- Alison Riske in Zhengzhou -- when the Bannerette was upset by countrywoman Nicole Gibbs. Kerber defeated Gibbs in two sets, then outlasted Madison Keys in the QF when she retired in the 3rd set. The German went out in the semis to Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, but will see her first notable ranking rise in a while (a one-spot nudge in June) come Monday when she climbs up from #15 to #12.
===============================================


COMEBACK: Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova/RUS
...at the beginning of the week, it seemed as if the "she's due" theory might apply to the Russian this week, and so it did. Though not all the way back into the title winner's circle.

Pavlyuchenkova *did* reach her first singles final since May of last year (Strasbourg), through, advancing into her 19th career tour-level championship match in Osaka with victories over Dayana Yastremska, Kiki Bertens (her fourth Top 10 win of '19, and second over the Dutch woman), Misaki Doi and Angelique Kerber without dropping a set. Once there, she lost to crowd favorite Naomi Osaka in straights. The 28-year oldest Hordette -- typically, for her, really -- had somehow still managed to *raise* her ranking going into the week (she stood at #41 after finishing 2018 at #42) even while having *won* a singles title last season. This result will get her to #36 on Monday.

FRESH FACES: Sofia Kenin/USA, Anna Blinkova/RUS and Priscilla Hon/AUS
...while Bianca Andreescu's results have been the flashier of the two, if not for the 19-year old Canadian the 20-year old Bannerette would be the breakout North American of 2019. In Guangzhou, Kenin won season title #3 with wins over Laura Siegemund, Katarina Zavatska, Jasmine Paolini and Anna Blinkova to reach her fourth final of the season. Coming from a set down, she defeated Sam Stosur 6-7(4)/6-2/6-2 to add another International level crown to her resume. She'll be at another new career high (#17) on Monday.



The summer and early fall is proving to be the site of Blinkova's belated coming out party, as the 21-year old Hordette has in recent weeks reached a tour QF in the Bronx, pushed defending champ Naomi Osaka to three sets at Flushing Meadows, swept the singles and doubles titles in the 125 Series event in New Haven and, this past week, reached her maiden tour-level semi in Guangzhou with wins over Sara Sorribes Tormo, Aleksandra Krunic and Marie Bouzkova. In the semis, she pushed eventual champ Kenin to three sets. She'll jump ten spots to a new career high of #66 this week.

In Seoul, 21-year old Aussie Hon reached her second QF in three years in the tour-level event. After making her way through qualifying (defeating countrywoman Destanee Aiava), Hon knocked off Mihaela Buzarnescu and yet another Aussie in a match-up of the nation's #2 (#42 Ajla Tomljanovic) vs. #5 (#119 Hon). She lost to eventual champ Karolina Muchova, but adds yet another promising week to a season that already includes Hon's first career MD slam win (RG) and career-best ranking.


===============================================
DOWN: Sloane Stephens/USA
...in Osaka, Stephens lost her sixth match in seven outings (the fifth in straight sets) with a 6-0/6-3 defeat at the hands of Camila Giorgi. After winning the U.S. Open (2017) and Miami ('18), while reaching big finals at Roland Garros, Montreal and the WTAF (all '18) the last two years, Stephens has so far failed to reach a final in 2019 and posted no Top 10 wins (she had 3 and 8 the last two seasons, respectively), she has some work to do if she's going to have a third straight Top 20 season for the first time in her career. She'll enter next week at #15.

Stephens has already gotten off to a better start in the opening round of this coming week's event in Wuhan, defeating Zhang Shuai 7-5/6-4 on Sunday.
===============================================
ITF PLAYER: Varvara Gracheva/RUS
...the 19-year old Russian grabbed her fourth ITF circuit crown of the year, and the biggest of her career, at the $60K challenger in Saint-Melo, France. Gracheva's sixth consecutive (2017-19) win in a singles final, a 3 & 2 victory over fellow teen Marta Kostyuk, comes less than two months after she notched her maiden career WTA MD win over Anna Blinkova in Washington (then took Hsieh Su-wei to a 3rd set TB in the 2nd Rd.).


===============================================
JUNIOR STAR: Alexandra Eala/PHI
...in Capetown, 14-year old Filipina Eala claimed her biggest career title, defeating Czech Linda Fruhvirtova in the final to pick up her maiden Grade A crown. The Rafael Nadal Academy product recently made it through U.S. Open girls qualifying to become the first female from the Philippines to reach the MD of a junior slam event, in which she posted a 1st Round win over Aussie Annerly Poulos.



This week, the Junior Fed Cup (16s) title will be determined in Orlando.

DOUBLES: Chan Hao-ching & Latisha Chan, TPE/TPE
...the Chans picked up their fourth win of 2019, tying Hsieh Su-wei/Barbora Strycova for the tour lead, with a 7-5/7-5 win in the final over another pair of tennis-playing siblings, the aforementioned Hsieh and her sister Yu-chieh. The pair had won a pair of match TB's -- vs. Dabrowski/Garcia in the QF, and Doi/Hibino in the SF -- en route to their 21st tour-level final as a duo. This was their 14th win. For Latisha, this week's win (#33 in her career) qualifies '19 as a fitful follow up to her career year of '17, when she won a tour-best 11 titles (nine with Martina Hingis, two with her sister) and reached #1. She's also picked up two slam MX titles with Ivan Dodig this season.


===============================================
WHEELCHAIR: Yui Kamiji/JPN
...Kamiji won the Series 1 de L'ile de Re crown in France, defeating Zhu Zhenzhen 4-6/6-0/6-3 in the final. The loss drops Zhu to 44-5 since mid-March.

While 2019 has seen world #2 Kamiji not win a slam title for the first time since 2013, her (so far) 14-3 summer run (w/ all three losses to Diede de Groot) is serving as a good lead-up to what will be a big year in 2020. She'll be at the center of the storm come next summer as the top-ranked home player when Tokyo hosts the Paralympics. She picked up a Bronze in Rio four years ago.


===============================================


MARKETA VONDROUSOVA UPDATE:




LAURA ROBSON UPDATE:




1. Seoul QF - Ekaterina Alexandrova def. Kristie Ahn
...6-7(0)/6-4/6-4. The Russian fired 48 winners, including 22 aces, second this season only to Kristyna Pliskova's 24 in Birmingham vs. her sister. Ahn and Alexandrova are *not* related, so...
===============================================
2. Guangzhou Final - Sofia Kenin def. Samantha Stosur
...6-7(4)/6-4/6-2. I wonder if Kenin has any photos of her kid self posing with Stosur oh so many years ago?


===============================================
3. Seoul Final - Karolina Muchova def. Magda Linette
...6-1/6-1. The season's 14th first-time champ equals the most in a season since the same number in 2014. That number could change this week, if history tells us anything...


===============================================
4. Guangzhou 2nd Rd. - Marie Bouzkova def. Elina Svitolina
...6-4/4-3 ret. The Czech's third Top 10 win in the last two months, and the *second* via retirement (w/ Halep in Toronto). I could go on again about Svitolina's season possibly "breaking" the paradigm for what makes a "good" season, you know, "good" and just how much a couple of spare slam results (one w/ at least one large asterisk attached to it) should factor into the characterization of an otherwise injury-plagued, highlight-free and entirely disappointing campaign.

But, really, what everyone wants to know if whether or not Elina has any dirt on the Bidens.
===============================================
5. Guangzhou Final - Peng Shuai/Laura Siegemund def. Alexa Guarachi/Giuliana Olmos
...6-2/6-1. Peng is 23-8 in tour doubles finals in her career.


===============================================
6. Seoul Final - Lara Arruabarrena/Tatjana Maria def. Hayley Carter/Luisa Stefani
...7-5/4-6/7-6(6). Arruabarrena & Maria win their second title together ('16 Bogota) in their third final (w/ '14 Osaka), denying the ex-NCAA stars their maiden crowns.


===============================================
7. $25K Pula ITA Final - Martina Trevisan def. Seone Mendez
...6–4/5–7/7–5. In the same week that countrywoman Jasmine Paolini reached the Guangzhou QF, Trevisan wins her first ITF crown in over two years (denying the Aussie -- the ITF #1-ranked player -- her seventh 2019 title and biggest of her career). Last week, Italy's Elisabetta Cocciaretto reached an ITF final. Italian women's tennis (the non-Giorgi kind, which Camila surely does *not* follow) is alive and well... it's just quite a bit quieter than in years past.
===============================================
8. $25K Arad ROU Final - Andreea Mitu def. Irene Burillo Escorihuela
...6-7(5)/6-4/6-4. Mitu sweeps the singles and doubles crowns... on her 28th birthday.


===============================================
9. Osaka 1st Rd. - Donna Vekic def. Caroline Garcia 7-5/6-2
Osaka 1st Rd. - Misaki Doi def. Kristina Mladenovic 6-1/6-2
...neither Pastry wanted to play each other again so soon again, anyway, I suppose.
===============================================
10. Wuhan 1st Rd. - Arnya Sabalenka def. Aliaksandra Sasnovich
...6-1/6-2. Sabalenka was charged with facing fellow Belarusian Vika Azarenka in the 1st Round at Flushing Meadows. As the defending champ in Wuhan, she made herself 2-0 in the unofficial BLR Fed Cup Team Round Robin with a win over countrywoman Sasnovich.
===============================================
HM- $15K Lubbock Tx USA Final - Jessica Livianu def. Dalayna Hewitt
... 6-4/1-6/6-3. The St.John's star picked up her maiden pro title in Lubbock, going 7-0 while transforming from qualifier to champion. She won back-to-back-to-back three-setters to close out the title run.


===============================================


The Power of Pliskovae...




1. Osaka Final - NAOMI OSAKA def. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova
...6-2/6-3. This is Osaka's first ever win in Asia. She'd been 0-2 in finals in Tokyo in 2016 and '18, as well as having lost in 125 Series (Hua Hin, THA '15) and $15K ITF (Gifu, JPN) events.
===============================================
2. Osaka Final - CHAN HAO-CHING/LATISHA CHAN def. HSIEH SU-WEI/HSIEH YU-CHIEH
...7-5/7-5. While the Chans are the second-leading all-sisters duo in tour history, this was the second final reached by the Hsiehs. They lost in the Seoul title decider one year ago.
===============================================
3. Osaka 1st Rd. - HSIEH SU-WEI def. Garbine Muguruza
...3-6/7-6(1)/6-1. Muguruza held MP in the 2nd set at 6-5, then dropped 10 of 11 points, losing a 7-1 TB and then dropping the 3rd set at one. While the Spaniard hasn't been doing the "no-show" specials since parting with Sam Sumyk, her closing skills remain wanting. Her last three defeats have come in three-set affairs in which she claimed the opening set.
===============================================
HM- Wuhan 1st Rd. - Danielle Collins def. VENUS WILLIAMS
...7-5/7-6(5). It seems like a million years ago that Collins reached her maiden slam semifinal in Melbourne, but it's actually only been eight months. Save for a win over a #13-ranked Anastasija Sevastova at Wimbledon, this is arguably her best win since, as the U-Va. product had only posted 13 additional victories since she ran through the likes of Goerges, Garcia, Kerber and Pavlyuchenkova Down Under.
