Official "Allez, Amelie! Nous vous aimons!" thread


Following Amelie Mauresmo's loss to Tamerine Tunasugarn in Doha, she is reported to be quite down. The howling winds in Doha have made it difficult for a lot of players, but Mauresmo did not need another loss like this. She missed out on most of the 2007 season because of appendicitis, a long recovery period, and a surgery-related injury, and she just cannot seem to get it together in 2008.

Amelie has come back before (a few weeks before she won the 2005 Sony Ericsson Championships, she said she felt too burned out to go on), and she can come back again.

Allez, Amelie!
