And why does Els keep on playing in Tier I events? :rolleyes:
She has won three matches so far this year. I don't think it would be that bad of an idea to start playing some smaller tournies...

Leslie :mad: :sad:

Klaartje :eek: What happened there?? She must have injured herself really badly to stop playing wth that kind of lead :sad: I hope she's ok :)

Maybe, Klaartje's holiday is over and she has to go back home? So she gave the match away on match points. That happens a lot.
