Well, Dulgheru's finally healthy again and coming back. She's talented enough to beat Lisicky, even though this is a surprise.
Indeed. Confirms by b. Julia Goerges

Kvitova won't be in IW: tired.
I wonder what's been tiring her? Or maybe who? I heard she and Stepanek have just got back together! :wink:
Noooooooooo :shock:

Just joined this forums and glad to have seen this thread. Perfectly describes the Aussie female players in particular!
Stosur or as she's commonly known choker. Who can forget that performance in Brisbane?
Dellacqua is a new one but is looking like the next Stosur. She was top seed in Hobart and lost in the 2nd round. She was 3rd seed in Malaysia this week and played awfully against Hsieh.
Gajdosova is an interesting one. Plagued by injury but seems to have found herself in recent months. Although her performance against Muguruza in Dubai seemed promising but then she choked. Hopefully she can continue performing well in Malaysia and maybe get taken off the "left for dead" category. haha
Pavlyuchenkova just got destroyed by Sara Eranni. Anybody who loses to errani on hard court should consider retirement.
...well, that's sort of harsh!

How much did you lose on Pavls?
(aka Kuzzy Jr.)
Someone watched Ivanovic-Garcia? The scoreline seems a bit flattering for the Frenchwoman considering that even if it isn't "the" Ivanovic, it's still Ana.

What sort of choking/upsets are we expecting to see today at Indian Wells?
Cornet?
Stosur?
Petko?
Errani?
Pennetta?
Stosur vs Stephens! Two board members face off.

But Stephens beat Kerber (yay) whom I've disliked since she cheated at RG. So Stephens is ok by me. and Stosur has taken out SW at 2 slam events. So Stosur is also ok by me. I'm sure you agree ; ). Hope you're well.![]()
Choking..AKA players who deserve lifetime membership of this thread.
I like them both! I feel bad that one of them has to lose today...they could both use some positive results.
I am doing well. I'm on vacation but was able to stream Serena on Tennis Channel app on my phone last night, which was great. Also a good opportunity to see some bizarre rants in the related threads. There are some real nutters :shock: I'm just laying low, trying not to take the bait. Hope all is well with you.
I wish you a speedy recovery.Had an op on my knee (ligament ) so my life consists of physio and dvds! Progress is good (touch wood) so should be playing tennis again in a couple of months.

If a high level board member like Stosur or Kuzzy chokes a match away, is it really choking? Or is it success because she is fulfilling by her mission as a board member?
Stosur plays Townsend today, Sloane/Kuzy tomorrow.

A few small upsets in the 1R of Miami.
Any tips on what seeds will fall early?
I'd love to see Gavrilova upset Sharapova.
Garcia.
So happy to see Gavrilova take out Sharapova
So Zahlavova and Lepchenko are out.
Garcia down a set and break. And Stosur just somehow lost a set. God she's a pain to watch.
I was quite harsh on this this thread last year about Stosur until it was pointed out that anything she did now was a bonus. And coupled with the fact that she's taken SW out of two slam events my position has changed 100%- I now am happy if she has a good win and sigh for the bad ones. But overall applaud her. If that makes sense?
Yep, she will forever be the '11 US Open champion. Most of us believe with her tools she should have had a better career, but she will forever be a Slam champion.
Yep and she's had a very successful doubles career. One of the few women to have a grand slam in singles, doubles and mixed doubles.
I couldn't watch that '10 FO final live, had to be somewhere. Finding out after the fact that Sam didn't win was shocking. Still can't believe that one.
Rory to complete the career Grand Slam before Wozza wins one :twisted:
