I'm delighted for Kenin. She was excellent. I do see a lot of negativity towards Gauff across the internet, due to all the hype she has received over the years (I remember how a big a deal she was a 15 year old at Wimbledon 4 years ago), but that seems incredibly harsh to me. It's not like she has written all the various articles about her, has bigged herself up on ESPN etc.
Also it was nice to see Jodie Burrage enjoying her first ever grand slam main draw win. She has had a lot of injury problems in the past, and was understandably emotional afterwards.
To be honest I find women's tennis more interesting than men's tennis these days. Across both 128 player grand slam draws, to me there are simply more female players whose progress I am interested in, and early round women's matches that stand out to me. 5-10 years ago, it was the complete opposite.
