Worth pointing out:
I saw the Vakulenko match, and she was clearly (slightly) injured... called for the trainer a few games in, and had a hard time bending down throughout the match.

Sadly, Julia's career has more or less been one sustained injury. She has a big game, but hardly ever gets to play it.
