Wow, Cahill really dressed down Halep on this latest consult.

Re: '19 WTA YEC Shenzen 10/27 - 11/3
I'm really of two minds about Cahill and Halep.
On the one hand, it makes me think that Halep isn't smart enough to think her way out of a paper bag. There were several commentators on Twitter... -

Yes, they are using nets in Vienna. The handle/shape are the same as a tennis racquet, so you could easily mistake it when they're stationary.

Puig pulls it out in two tie-breakers after 2:51. Pliskova had saved a previous match point with a scintillating passing shot. Poor Krystyna just never seems to pull through in these matches.

Down 3-0 (two breaks) in the second set, she called her dad down again, and she was crying. Some evidence for the "too much, too soon" crowd.

That was an incredible final set. Monfils kept falling behind, coming back, falling behind, coming back. And some amazing points in there too.
