I like the fact that it’s a little bit slower probably than a lot of the courts that we play on and gives me time to use my big shots, set up points the way that I want to. I like the sliding into the shots and all that type of thing.

I would love to win this one, but there are still a lot of people in the draw that would love to win this tournament, as well. I'm just one of those.

Varvara Lepchenko transformed the terre battue into a treadmill and Angelique Kerber was doing much of the road work.

Well, you know, I’m an old-timer, and experience serves when you’re old, because I knew what she was thinking about. So I thought, "If I can produce a shot when I oblige her to do even better, and she can’t, then she will be thinking about it," which is exactly what happened.

Oh Petra.
ReplyDeleteHere is what she said: "I did a lot of mistakes and I really didn't know what was happening on the court," she said.
How can someone not know what is happening on the court? It's a simple game. Hampton is straightforward. It was not a complicated match: JJ was not there. Kerber was not there. Serena was not there. Vika was not there. So it was simple and Kvitova was quite literally out of focus.
Petra needs a new coach and a psychologist; perhaps a psychiatrist. I'm serious.
Given her talent, the only player who should be of serious concern to Kvitova is Serena Williams. And yet, Petra is beaten by almost everyone at some point. Mind-boggling.
