She's the greatest of all time. Bianca said it herself several times during post match interview. Don't. Really. Care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just1CupB4IDie Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I like how she plugs her ears and wears headphones ...noise pollution can drain your energy mentally and physically. Ever take a long road trip? Use ear plugs...they keep you alert longer and lessens the road noise. It really helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bianca is clearly a fabulous player, but she must be a really nice (and respectful) person too. Oh yah. If you play/watch tennis you know everyone loves Bianca. She's a great person super nice and respectful. No one wants to lose to a jerk. So Serena recognized that. Good for her to do that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She seems to take every single element of this seriously. I believe it's true when she says she's worked hard...I think it starts long before she hits the court. Has the same sort of drive and determination as Petey...never satisfied and always working toward being better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less whatever she gained in this tournament. Obviously it's a smaller number from her tournament this year. That's why Osaka is now 4th ranked, no longer #1.

Just1CupB4IDie Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 What's really cool is how Bianca won it in two straight sets! And thank goodness for that....not sure my nerves could've handled a third set. What a match! Congratulations Bianca Beast! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She just spoke on that too...said the mental edge separates the best from the rest. Was referring to Serena in that....but hey, she just beat her so. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
