2014 BNP Paribas Open (Indian Wells)

[kskate2]

And that's it. She battles back from 0-40 in the match game to take the match 7-6 6-1. A cleaner performance in the 2nd set. Knapp had no answers. Great job Taylor!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well done Taylor a better 2nd set from you.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Can Wozniack beating U-Rad be considered an upset?
The score was very lopsided, I thought U-Rad would take this one...

 

[kskate2]

Not really, Kiu. What are they both ranked? At some point in her career wasn't Wozniak top 30?

 

[RJD11]

My fearless forecast - Maria dominates IW anew . Hail to the Champ!

Grigor would know whether Maria is a dominatrix.

Well, we already know that Serena is her Mistress.

 

[RJD11]

What about Kristen88

No, nothing, nada there. I had about 4-5 names there but I stopped now. There is that "drg" deranged nutter who hates me as if I am Drakula who brings bad name to Romania Sooner or later my style of posting gives me away.. and why bother anyway? That place (not here) is rubbish and full with idiots.
That place (not here) is a typical mob mentality forum.
Its a shame that it got so many slaves who feed each other with traffic...

And thanks to Si Si Simona for her addition about the upcoming possible match ups.

Not "her"... its "his" and I am straight!

Si's worst nightmare came true and Nara made it past the American Qualifier.
I watched the scoreboard and it wasn't like Nara blew the American qualifier out of the court, there were moments when it looked like Nara could lose the first set after jumping ahead in the beginning.
I still think Simona would win in straights...

Nara bagelled her in 2nd set. She is new at this level, just got into top 50 with no experience.
You will hear of Nara this year. In Doha, Simona had her hardest match in the first match v Kanepi, and Nara will be the same in IW. I hope Simona goes through but I am "shaking it"

Well Si, those people, etal, are using your name in their sig

 

[Si Si Simona]

Reality will bite. She will not dominate the WTA w/ her current fitness level. Just ask Petra and a number of others. You can win here and there, but you'll never be as good as you can be as long as you're a 1/2 step or so behind.

I wanted to say the same thing. Petra looked simply fat yesterday at the fans hour. Worse than on court. She said she runs a lot on the trade mill. It doesn't seem to help her. I suggest swimming!

 

[kskate2]

Looks like Duval and Kleybanova are both wearing Venus' Eleven line.

 

[Si Si Simona]

Well Si, those people, etal, are using your name in their sig

For the new fans its just an expression. Only hartson and setsuna refer to me. I have the rights since July 13
my spirit is haunting my hat'ers there enough about me..

 

[Si Si Simona]

The Italians from bad to worse. lost R1 in the doubles uzzled

Si Si Simona

Your player wont lose tomorrow

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

A close match between Duval v Kleybanova
Just started the 3rd set.I would love for Kleybanova to win this match.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Not really, Kiu. What are they both ranked? At some point in her career wasn't Wozniak top 30?

I know, I agree but then I checked, Wozniak is ranked 241, U-Rad 53

Wozniak was injured so she didn't play awhile.

Tough match between Camila and Petko, petko took the first set via tie-breaker and experience.

 

[Si Si Simona]

Poor Petka struggles so much to beat Giurgi. The old healthy Petka would have been in the locker room by now.. She lost her powers after her two big injuries.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Sad for Andrea...I liked her game...then those injuries
Hopefully she can remain Healthy in 2014.

 

[kskate2]

Vicky up 4-1 in the decider

 

[Si Si Simona]

Si Si Simona

Your player wont lose tomorrow

And court #4 has TV! The Petka match is on court #4 on tv now.
A sleepless night in IW for me tomorrow then

 

[kskate2]

Vicky gives it all back. Kley to serve for the match 5-4

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Vicky with a break to even things up. I just checked the total points and it 222 with each lady holding 111
