        Wouldn't have mattered where they played. @Naomi_Osaka_ was too good. Ash needs to get more beef in her game to complete with these big hitters. Can people please stop making excuses for Ash's loss. She was beaten by a better player.

        Replying to @vmainard @australian @Naomi_Osaka_

        Completely agree. She still had a huge Aussie support. You'd think they moved her from a grass court to clay. It was still a big arena that she played in. Naomi was on 🔥 yesterday. Kudos to her.

        I agree. Thought it was cute that Naomi apologized to the crowd afterwards. She has a better chance of beating Halep than Ash would have. Glad Angie beat Maria too.

        I was going for Angie! She's having a cracker of a season so far. Your Madison is doing very well. She's flying under the radar. There's some great match ups tomorrow. ❤️🎾

        Madi and Caroline play first up on RLA. Gee Madi is getting up in the world. I think She'll beat Caroline. Being healthy is making a huge difference to her.

        I always thought Madison will do very well if it wasn't for injury. Here's hoping to a healthy 2018 for Madison. I generally like most of the wta players. It's exciting times at the moment, so many talents.

        Opinion: No, she is a great player & would not blame her tools for unfortunate loss.
