It's ridiculous to compare her journey here to Bartoli's. If she wins she will have beaten 3 top 10 players and a former wimbledon champion. Bartoli didn't face 1.

A whole lot of clueless posters there. Many are also calling Nick Kyrgios a one tournament wonder just out of being p1$$ed that he beat Nadal. This guy's the real deal when you consider he's only 19 and will likely get better and better. And yeah, the Bartoli comparison is beyond ridiculous. Bouchard has made the semis of the past 2 slams and the finals here. That clearly shows how stupid those posters are.

I always need a stiff drink,followed by a bex and a good lie down after reading comments at TW.Com
:
"I'm really excited. I have a day off tomorrow and I can't wait to play," she added. "It's my first Grand Slam final so I'm just going to go for it. I'll probably have my toughest match yet and I'm looking forward to the challenge."

same size as any court in the world. big deal. They make the same size in the jungle or Wimby

no chance that was very low under the belt in my court 18 :blush: :cry
no more TBA on court 18 for Simona... I will miss those TBAs and playing fifth match in the rain to put her in her place...
rubydo said:I had Genie in two sets against Simona, one leg or two it did not really matter. She was the better player. I have seen Petra play up close and when she gets into a rhythm she can be very effective. She has been there before, experience counts to a certain degree, but Eugenie has the mental toughness, she will not put any pressure on herself even if( 5,000,000 Canadians maybe watching), Petra will, and she can get unnerved. You are right fashionista, Petra is very powerful and Genie needs to find that touch of magic to move her around, because she is not fleet of foot. We can analysis this to doomsday, but The Montreal Miss has to be my pick, in 3.

rubydo said:Fashionista you came up with some intriguing numbers. Eugenie is 13th, yet if she wins Wimbledon she does vault to number 6! She has lucky 13 and then the number 6 which has won 6 Grand Slams as you noted. 6 + 13 = 19, which Eugenie was for most of the year , now 20, it all rings true in my Canadian crystal ball. Forget about everything else we have dissected, these numbers don't lie!!:laydownlaughing
