Paula Badosa is greening up on the grass of the All England Club. The former world No.2 beat Daria Kasatkina on Thursday to reach the last 16 of Wimbledon. She dominated the world no. 12 after a hard-fought battle lasting almost three hours and three sets (7-6, 4-6, 6-4), the first time she'd played in a Grand Slam tournament for so long.

Exactly 2 years ago, at Wimbledon 2022, the Spaniard had already reached the Round of 16. After that, injuries - mainly to her back - prevented her from playing enough matches to be successful.

She seems to be feeling much better on the London grass and will be looking to confirm this against Donna Vekic or Dayana Yastremska.

Kasatkina D • 14

Yastremska D • 28

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
