She can't make it far even with good form. When she is supposed to win, something gets to her and she loses.

2010 FO....one of the favorites and she chokes. Makes an excuse like the clay got into her eyes.

I love watching her play, but she will makes fans cringe at the latter stages.
 
nice to see the new pusher who replaces Wozniaki go out

Radwanska's game is so weird. Her anticipation and hands are so amazing. Yet her strokes are so ugly. Her backhand just looks terrible. The racket head is so low on her take back, and she just kind of pushes the ball back. Her forehand grip looks pretty extreme, but she has no racket head speed. She pretty much has to kneel on the ground to block back low forehands because of her extreme grip and lack of racket speed. Her serve sucks too.

Radwanska's strokes suck, but you have to hit 5 winners against her just to win one point. I really don't understand how she's top 5 in the world. Are her anticipation and movement really that good? Is the women's
Game just really weak right now? On the men's side you wouldn't make the top 100 playing that style with no weapons.

yes..........
 
It would be good for the game of tennis if Julia Goerges was ranked number one or at least a regular grand slam contender. Tennis needs a sexy champion. She could be it. Her best days are still ahead of her. The only way is forward.
