Without wanting to turn this into a genetics debate, there is a school of thought that Female athletes are more prone to waivering performances due to biological factors.
It could just simply be poor timing for the whole lot, and lets remember what they say about females in groups bonding and what happens to reproductive cycles.
Note: I state the above with the utmost repsect. Its well known in elite sports, that often medication is taken by tennis players to prevent this from being a factor. I particularly mean bloating, cramping etc. It is enough to result in a massive decrease in output.
