the thread someone made about there being no injuries or retirements @ this AO yes there was no match that ended this way but cannot ignore injuries to the four most in-form players in the tournament
1) Jamie's back injury in the 3R
2) Serena's ankle injury in the 1R and back injury in the QF
3) Vika's rib injury in the SF
4) Na's ankle injuries and concussion in the F
who would have won the tournament if these injuries did not happen
Re: Who Would Have Won 2013 AO Without The Injuries to Serena, Viktoria and Na ???
The best server no doubt,I think they had 13 break of serve ? But today the #1 player won.So happy for Vika again I like the young lady.Always love a fighter.
Re: Who Would Have Won 2013 AO Without The Injuries to Serena, Viktoria and Na ???
Doesn't matter, injuries are part of the game and just another factor. You could ask a million questions like this Coulda, woulda, shoulda, Azarenka won it fair and square by beating all of her opponents.
You don't have to like the fact Azarenka won. Many tennis fans, couldn't care less or hate it. But you have no choice, but to accept/deal with the fact she actually won; cause she did. :lol:
This is just an alternate reality for those who have sour grapes or who don't want to come to grips with the reality of her win (though we know many feel it's tainted).
If you want to criticize Vika, go ahead criticize her! That's certainly your opinion and right. However, this "what if" poll (especially so soon after she won), seems so desperately/mindlessly silly and therapeutic (and even disrespectful). :no:
