Qatar Total Open 2014

This is a ugly match soo far Halep v Beck.....too many ufe for starters.

 

[Si Si Simona]

If Simona wins, her next match will not be against a more powerful girl for a change. (Errani) I can only hope, hard to guess if she wins this. At least she fights as usual.
Comn Simo! 5-4 30-0 now

yesss 6-4. she won even when playing bad. a sign of a cha...

This is a ugly match soo far Halep v Beck.....too many ufe for starters.

correct. she had a very hard match last night, its late at night, she is pissed off and nervous. she has only to lose v an underdog. Simo needs to focus and get over this match.

 

[Si Si Simona]

Navratilova commented on the last 8 players chances and didnt mention Simona even once.
We shell see about that Martina.
They just dont get it yet...

Thank god Simo plays the 3rd match of the day so she can have enough rest before the semi final
And its true, I need to shut up and stop posting things like this
The Errani-Simona match will be a real dog fight with lots of cursing in Latin Its like two pitbulls going at each other.

Hi Si Si you should have a Romanian beer on top of this - or maybe a couple - if they have got good beers. Well you know that I'm sure

You mean the match with Errani? yes, beer will be good if she wins
This match is like a boxing fight

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

OK Si, it's time to pull the trumpet out.
Can Simona even her record with Sara and take revenge for that lopsided loss in Miami last year?

I am still on my Yannina-Wagon, she heroically came from behind and won in 3 sets today.

Can she undo Aggie?

There is no logic in your question because Simona 2014 didnt play in Miami last year. I cant remember who played Errani in that match. It was another player...
Simona Halep's career started on May 2013. I dont remember anything prior to this date. Sorry

I am still on my Yannina-Wagon, she heroically came from behind and won in 3 sets today.
Can she undo Aggie?

No one gives her a chance and thats why she is dangerous Yanina is nice

12 hours before the Simo match and I am already nervous and anxious. damn..
Dont blow it Simo. Dont you dare! A semi final in Qatar after beating the 7th in the world will mean so much to her.
I hope she had a good night/morning sleep. Thank god Errani plays the doubles which forced her singles match to be moved forward. If Simona had played another match at midnight today, she wouldnt stand a chance against Aga in the semis. "One step at the time"... I dont play I just watch, so I can talk trash

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Wow, Angie was running the bakery, handed Cetk a bread-stick and a bagel. Nice round to come into form.

 

[kskate2]

And Petra is vying for her 3rd 3 set match. She drops the opener to JJ 6-1 and is up a break in the 2nd 3-2.

 

[kskate2]

And Petra is out in straights. She gives the break back and saves 3 MP's, but can't save the 4th. JJ moves on to the SF.

 

[Si Si Simona]

Is Errani for real? uzzled 2-0. easiest 2 games of simo this week.
If Errani doesnt pick up fast, Simo will open the bakery very soon

 

[Si Si Simona]

3-0 two breaks so far its not even a practice match, Errani looks totally out of it.
HAIDE SIMONA !!!

 

[Si Si Simona]

much tougher 4th game. Errani starts to get back into the match
4-0 but errani played better.

 

[Si Si Simona]

6-2 1st set. yes! 2nd set will be a REAL war, I have no doubt.
Simo is so happy to play for a change someone with less power than her after Kanepi and Beck.
She feels very comfortable so far.

 

[kskate2]

Good first set from Simo. She was steady and moved Sara around. That's the only way to beat her if you can't overpower her.

 

[Si Si Simona]

AT last a break for Simona! She was spitting blood in the last month.
Players with NO POWER have no chance against her. Try soft hitting and you have no chance!
Just as I said on another thread.
5-0 easier than a practice match.
