2015 WTA Indian Wells

[PeteD]

That wasn't supposed to happen.

 

[romeo8880]

This isn't the Halep I know.

 

[spystud]

Break your racket, honey.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Halep is very overrated. What is great about her game? She has no power

 

[soyizgood]

Halep is frustrated she can't hit past the Great Serbian Wall. Jankovic is keeping the ball in, mixing in her DTL backhand, and playing like she has nothing to lose.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Jankovic is too much

 

[soyizgood]

Halep can't win the big events. Came up short at the French, got blasted at the YEC, and now getting beat down by a woman coming in with a thigh injury.

 

[romeo8880]

Halep is very overrated. What is great about her game? She has no power

When she's on her game she makes few errors and makes up for her lack of power with incredible angles and deep shots.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

When she's on her game she makes few erliknd makes up for her lack of power with incredible angles and deep shots.

That's great but its hard to win day in and day out with a game like that. I give her credit for battling mentally

 

[spystud]

JJ is gonna play Simona back into this.

 

[THUNDERVOLLEY]

When she's on her game she makes few errors and makes up for her lack of power with incredible angles and deep shots.

Its in her head--she's just playing, instead of thinking she should take anyone out in a match.

 

[spystud]

Hell, this board calls for everyone's retirement if they lose a match. Dumbsh*t on the Genie thread said she should hang it up @ 21.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Jankovic has been very whiny this whole tournament lol

 

[romeo8880]

Jankovic always yelling at her brother lol.

 

[spystud]

JJ serving for the hardware.

 

[spystud]

JJ makes me laugh. "Bring your toss back & hit it!"

 

[gut wax]

Hit it.
- It is easy to say.
To bring your toss and hit it?
- It is hard to do.
Bring the toss . . .

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Halep sure has some fight in her. Love her fight

 

[spystud]

Simona breaks after a crazy long point, still alive!

 

[Tennis wizard]

Wtf is this from jankovic she became so passive

 

[soyizgood]

JJ choking. Why did I expect something different this time???

 

[THUNDERVOLLEY]

Hell, this board calls for everyone's retirement if they lose a match. Dumbsh*t on the Genie thread said she should hang it up @ 21.

Anyone calling for young Genie to retire is simply hostile...and are among the infantile TW set who despise the fact she has feelings for Bieber (which dashed fantasies of a "chance" to meet/woo her).

 

[gut wax]

Pushing floaters like a local yokel.

 

[spystud]

If JJ does lose this set, the 3rd will be a bagel or breadstick for Simona in about half an hour.

 

[THUNDERVOLLEY]

Pushing floaters like a local yokel.

Heh............

 

[Tennis wizard]

This cant be possible ? someone finally held serve!!!!!

 

[romeo8880]

Halep is a fighter. Do it for your cousin.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

I hope halep wins now because jankovic blew her opportunity

 

[soyizgood]

JJ letting this set slip away.

 

[spystud]

Let's play 3, ladies!

 

[RSH]

Unreal.

10chokes.

 

[soyizgood]

Typical WTA final. More drama than a Game of Thrones episode.

 

[soyizgood]

JJ needs to hold. She needs to play to win, not lose.

 

[cc0509]

Oh my gosh, these two players are huge chokers!

Horrible.

 

[soyizgood]

Oh no. Now JJ getting dramatic with the ref.

2-2. Neither woman deserves to win.

 

[soyizgood]

Oh my gosh, these two players are huge chokers!

Horrible.

Jankovic choking is well-documented. Halep being a mental midget at the biggest of events is nothing new. LOL

 

[eelhc]

Damn it"s hard to watch this match.

 

[soyizgood]

4 breaks in a row... even the commentator says it is so much drama going on.

 

[Josh Lyman]

When did Halepeno become Shriekapova?

 

[spystud]

Serve it out, Simona!

 

[spystud]

Of course not. Jesus.

 

[Josh Lyman]

Of course not. Jesus.

Um, AngieB isn't posting in this thread.

 

[spystud]

Yeah, she is. Her usual schtick.

 

[spystud]

That a girl, Simona!


Not the prettiest match you'll ever see, but the title will always count.

 

[Josh Lyman]

Are there any women who can hit an overhead? JFC.

 

[Sysyphus]

Weird match. Many ups and down, and Halep not at her best, but happy she got the title!

 

[THUNDERVOLLEY]

Amusing that anyone was cheerleading Jankovic to win this.

There's a fitting nature behind it all.

[PDJ]

Amusing that anyone was cheerleading Jankovic to win this.

There's a fitting nature behind it all.

Amusing that anyone would think it odd to want someone to win a tennis match. How very odd.

I would have liked JJ to win but much happier Hinges took the doubles.

But I suppose it's rather odd to support someone- I mean it's not like tennis is a sport.....
