News: Caroline Garcia has announced her retirement from tennis following Roland Garros.
Fell outside the Top 100 in recent months so this doesn't really surprise me that much. Won a WTA Finals and 3 WTA 1000s in her career.

Keys Unlocks the Quarters
Madison Keys was serving at 71% in the 1st set... and still lost 55% of her 1st serve points.
But Donna Vekic couldn't keep up that level on her return, gradually succumbing to the barrage of big serves as Keys pulls out the win, 4-6, 7-6⁷, 6-3, to reach the quarterfinals

Interesting end to Ben Shelton’s press conference.
Unprompted, he took a moment to tear into the quality of local broadcasting and specifically on-court interviewing at #AusOpen.

Getting back to 5-5 after being down 1-5 or 2-5... and then losing the set 5-7 is one of the most demoralizing things that can happen in this god-forsaken game.
