I love Ai, which is why its Ok for me to say that she should retire!! I hate seeing her like this, and she can't be enjoying playing like this! She's had a great career and maybe its time to move on! :hug:

Ai :bigcry:

well done Lucie :yeah:

Time for Ai to retire from singles and only play doubles :D

she reminds me of Dokic atm :D :D :D

:yeah: Lucie :rocker:

Ai blew leads in this match, I haven't given up hope...this was the same begininning as last year and she turned it around nicely...hopefully she can come up with something nice soon!! Keep plugging away Ai!

Lucie :D

I haven't lost hope... Ai was winless at this time of the year last year and she managed to make something out of the year. Anyway, she CAN'T retire, because I'd finally be able to see her play at next year's Australian tournaments.

Lucie :yeah:

Nice way to break the losing streak. :D

Lucie :D

Loving the new freaky grunt :banana:

She played well, was quite a good match ;)

Good win for Lucie to maybe get things back on track.

Ai started slow last year but eventually picked things up. Maybe she will do the same this year.
