Well, Where Are you guys ?
anyway, I write the scores here !

It's the First Set , and Fortunately score is 6-5 to Na Li !

It's Intresting to Know that score was 3-2 to Li, and then Li broke Vera and made it 4-2, But Vera Broke it back and made it 4-3 , then everything went equal until 6-5, when unfortuantely Vera lost the game and it becames 7-5

I am here, Salar :). Just hard to watch only live scoring, Vera just lost first set 5-7 :(. But most games are very close.

It was a though draw of course, but from a scoreline it does not look too bad after 1,5 years out of competition against # 3 of the world.

Her stats:

Aces: 3
DF: 5
1st serve percentage: 63% (26/40)
2nd serve percentage: 34% (8/34)
BP: 2/8
Total points won :66

Hopefully she let's us know soon her thoughts on this match and how she felt :). Despite the loss, so happy she is back :yeah:

Sad that Vera lost, but it was expected, especially with that tough of a draw right out of the gate. Give her some time though and she'll get back into the groove of things and the good results will come. :)

Down 2-6 / 2-6

My expectations was really low, so screw the result, cause I'm really happy to see her again on court. Results can wait for now...

Will be a long process ahead for her. Hope she have the patience for that...

Support she'll have....

Re: Vera's offical live scoring thread 2014. Episode: the return.

well, i didn't watch the game (it was 6 am here) but the score was a bit out of expectations! maybe Dellaqua was very good !
Anyway the most important thing is that Vera is back and we can watch her games again !

When i saw the match statistics, her serves speed was a real surprise to me !

Vera's Average 1st serve speed was 154 KMH] an her Average 2nd serve speed was 134 KMH !
in comparison with the other R1 matches players, Vera's Average Serve Speed is better than palyers like Makarova (vs williams) , Vinci , Zheng, Benci, Date-Krumm, Flipkens (vs Robson) , Watson , Hantuchova, Zakopalova (vs Stosur) and even Angelique Kerber (vs Gajdosova) !

what do you think?

I think the shoulder was OK then ;).

Worrying is that Vera made 43 UE, where Dellaqua won just 67 points in total. And Vera only scored 9 points out of 44 on Dellaqua's serve. I think that says it all. Haven't seen the match of course, but you can tell that from the stats. But it is just her second match after the surgery and rehab. You can workout and train as hard as you can, but you can't train match practice. I think time and match practice is what Vera needs now.
