Did I call it or what? Chanda upsets the 14th seed Iroda Tulyaganova, 6-3, 6-1, in only 47 minutes. (“Uzbekistan’s Tulyaganova failed to make any impact on Rubin’s serve and was clearly out of her depth on a sun-baked Court 2.”)
Up next: Tatiana Panova, the 21st seed, recently described as a “plumpish Russki countrywoman…last seen losing to somebody named Martina Navratilova who’s 45 years old.”
(Unfortunately, she’ll probably run into the Serena Williams buzzsaw in the next round, just as Venus cut her run short at the French. But this sort of performance could push Chanda back into the top 20 in the world rankings, where she hasn’t been in a while.)

Is there any particular background to your Chanda Rubin fandom?
Just curious…
Chanda and I went to high school together. Our lockers used to be next to each other.
Plumpish? Maybe by Lara Flynn Boyle standards.
Yeah, I’m not sure 5’1″, 116 pounds qualifies as anyone’s idea of plumpish.
