The "What's Wrong With Her?" Thread - Page 400

I guess Li regains her "Get Off the List Card." WTA isn't looking too bad at this event.

Lisicki is now the floor leader, despite Petrova's objections and stripping a title from Wozniacki in the process. Rearranged the deck a bit. Dumped Bondarenko as I don't expect her to return. Li is on parole.

Kvitova, aspiring headcase, was the only person on the AO thread to not get a vote (even Kerber, Errani, Wozniacki, Other got votes). Has it really been 15 months since she won the YEC?

Yay, Eugenie Bouchard isn't on the list.

Besides that, what a tan!

When I see a player as overweight as (current) Serena, I always think it's an injury waiting to happen. Pro tennis is a sport that requires maximum fitness (and mobility). If you don't have it, you're putting yourself at risk every time you step on the court for a match.

It was great to see Li Na's performance last night. It was the first time that I watched her play this year. Some of her stinkers from last year are still fresh in my mind (esp her errorfest against Kerber where she hit about 70-80 unforced errors). The commentators last night mentioned that Carlos Rodriguez had worked with her to get a little more height on her forehand so that she would clear the net more and have fewer errors into the net. It was her forehand that impressed me the most, especially crosscourt. It really reminded me of how Djokovic had improved his forehand in 2011. She has such beautiful form and moves well across the court. And I like her aggressive ball striking. She wasn't aiming for the lines but because she is able to keep the ball out of the middle of the court with her strong backhand and now strong forehand and keep Sharapova on the run. I'm rooting for Li in the finals. I like Azarenka. I can tolerate her hooting (it's kind of melodious and is not a scream like Sharapova, Kirilenko, etc). She has lived up better as a post-slam winner than any of the other recent ones, bar Serena. I like Li better as a player on the court and a person off the court. But if Serena were playing I would be rooting for Serena to go all the way.

Yeah.

Can't you see the tan line between her ankle and the rest of her leg?

Did you seriously think that was a racist statement?

Please, adjust your glasses if you have any. If you don't, get some.

Would love to see Li win another grand slam, especially here where she has had her best results. Now that Kim is gone, no one can beat her in Australia!

Li Na looked in a mirror and saw No One, who just may beat her.

The entire crowd is gonna support Li Na after the MTO incident. Azarenka had better be mentally prepared in the final. Another panic attack would not go down too well...

If so, fair enough, I take your word. That said, no glasses needed from this end funny guy.

Vika may be taking lessons from Mary Pierce on how to break momentum, eh?

That USO 05 Final MTO was farcical. Mary's back to back MTO's (11 mins) obviously inspired nerverenka

onyxrose81 · 01-24-2013, 10:39 AM

Even though she isn't my favorite, I am firmly Team Li Na. Azarenka disgusts me.

MP 3rd set v Dementieva was an MTO of beauty.

Um, Serena's not overweight. And she moves well (when healthy of course).

Brian11785 · 01-24-2013, 01:42 PM

Ankle injury is what did Seles in, right?
