Querrey brings up the ticket price angle. Sadly, he's correct. In the end professional tennis isn't about the sport of tennis or it's fans. It's about how much revenue can be generated.

Rybakina has always had a tendency toward the stoic side. She was obviously born with that temperament/disposition. Won the genetic lotto in more than one category.

“She played really well." Except for first serve percentage. Which many times in the past Rybakina has held at a much higher percentage. And winning over 70% of first serves, she would have won this match easier. If Sabalenka plays 100%, Rybakina won't defeat her in the final serving like she did against Gauff. It was good to see Gauff's service game more consistent than in the recent past. She also needs to get a higher percentage of first serves in. Service game aside, Gauff won a significantly higher percentage of games off her second serve. Meaning serve aside, her overall game was better than Rybakina's.
