Russian countrywomen Maria Kirilenko and Nadia Petrova won the championship in Miami today, defeating Sara Errani and Roberta Vinci 7-6 (0), 4-6, 10-4. The two teams were seeded 5th and 6th, respectively. Petrova is now on her way to Charleston, where she will play doubles with Galina Voskoboeva.
Melanie Oudin will not do well until she realizes that when she was a factor, she was up at or inside the baseline a lot. Now, she plays from four to fifteen feet behind the baseline. Why? Ask her. Her service motion has never been particularly good, No real racquet speed is generated. All of this could be rectified. The questions are: Where are the coaches? Why don't they see this? Even her forehand has changed for the worse.
