I wonder what is going to happen with her? Will she ever get her game back? I really feel sorry for her. The media can really put you up there and then rip you now like nothing. They use to put her on show courts now she has been relegated to obscure courts.

well she has to become more healthier, get her head on straight, stop commiting obscene unforced errors while only hitting single digit winners, and she can stop wearing that dumbass visor backwards :eek: then she can make it back to the top 10. doubtful for top 5 though

Do you know of any other tennis player who has lost all her skills and confidence like Dani within such a short period. Whenever Dani plays and she loses that really bothers me because I can't imagine what went wrong or what is going through her mind when she is on the court playing. That's very disheartening. I wonder how can someone build their confidence back up.

She has to know that she has the full support of all her fans. We have stood by her throughout a dreadful year and we always try to do something for her at each tournament when we have someone attending. She needs to know that her fans haven't deserted her even if her game has. We try to make her feel as confident as we can but she is only going to get her full confidence back after winning games again. With a new coach and a new racket, these things are going to take time, but someone who is as naturally talented as she is will, and cannot, remain in the doldrums for long. We have all kept our faith in her, and for those of you like viagra who are concerned should not be. Someone as good as her will pull through this, so please try and keep the faith that all of her fans have shown. Don't worry, she'll be OK.

I second you Graham!!!!

Like I said in many other opportunities in the past few days, Let's just give Daniela time to pull herself up, to put things together. Most of all have faith in her, and in her game. She'll probably fall down in the ranking, but at this point and with what she's going thru, ranking really doesn't matter. What matters is regain confidence and game.
Daniela has all the talent she needs to be a top player, now we just have to wait and see what happens. I know for a lot of people the latest results are a bit annoying ... but com'on lets just give her time.

well, with that said.


:bounce: :bounce: GO DANKA !!! :bounce: :bounce:

go Dani.
Players really need to take more advantage of sprots psychologist. Tennis is 90% mental (at the top level). Right now Dani's problem is also 90% mental. Unless Sears is totally screwing with her game.

Some of Dani's problem is other players know her game and how to play her.

The other thing is, I never see her trying to set up her opponent. You never see her MAKE an opponent GIVE her a chance at winner.

You never see Venus Willaims hit a crosscorut slice backhand for a winner. She CAN'T hit a crosscourt slice baskhand for a winner. But go back to the first set of the Wimbledon final, and there she is hitting them. Why? Because it's hard to hit a down the line shot hard off that shot. In fact, Serena kept returning them crosscourt, giving Venus chances at backhand down-the-line winners. Eventually, Serena wised up, and simply returned down the line WITHOUT going for the winner.

The key is, you have to play a couple shots ahead sometimes. Dani never seems to.

Completely agree with Graham and Cat. Nothing to add!

I spoke to Harold Solomon (Daniela's coach) a couple of times in Sydney. He said that she has developed some some bad habits (like leaning her head on some of her shots) that will take some time to iron out. He is happy with her backhand, but her forehand and serve need work. He is confident that she will bounce back, but it may take some time to unlearn the bad habits.
