Paired with Clervie Ngounoue, Eugenie Bouchard lost to Venus Williams and Hailey Baptiste in doubles at Washington.

This was most likely the last time the Canadian crossed paths with Venus, as she is set to retire after the WTA 1000 tournament in Montreal.

Quoted by *The Tennis Gazette*, she said: "Playing against her for the last time is amazing and special. I just told her: ‘I respect the fact that you’re still here.’

She’s 14 years older than me, but she’s still playing. I have nothing but respect for her. She’s a legend.

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.
