Stosur played very well throughout and had captured 7 games out of 9 to lead 1-0 at the start of the third. Justine then steamrolled her 6-1. Her unforced errors disappeared, to be replaced by the kind of clay court brilliance that not another player in the world possesses. If her play at Roland Garros is at the level of today's third set, there is a fifth French title awaiting Henin. But is she all the way back? Can she produce such flawless and predatory tennis for the tournament rather than for a set? RG should be great to watch although most likely without Kim Clijsters, sadly.Jennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-229616072187725718.post-46619257812776997672010-05-02T13:46:26.031-05:002010-05-02T13:46:26.031-05:00I don't think so, Bill.

Lucky for her she has a one-handed backhand.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07124489754017593105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-229616072187725718.post-21818498772965824672010-05-02T13:32:58.177-05:002010-05-02T13:32:58.177-05:00This comes at a good time for Justine, with Roland...This comes at a good time for Justine, with Roland Garros on the horizon.

I...I was happy about both the doubles and singles. I was glad that Justine finally got the "monkey off her back." I think her match with Jankovic was a turning point. Sam fell victim to Justine's exquisite play in the end where Justine fell victim to Sam's kick serve and hits down the lines. I think Sam is up there now with the best clay courters. Madrid will be interesting because there will be a lot of tired women (I would think) after many of them played Stuttgart, Rome and Madrid. It was amazing what Dinara did last year being a finalist at Stuttgart and then winning Rome and Madrid.Sunnynoreply@blogger.com
