50K Beijing SF: Marina Erakovic (NZL) def. [2]Yung-Jan Chan (TPE) 64 76 just now

(Don't know the exact score in the tie-break. :scratch: )
Marina keeps her good form after beating Iroda beautifully in the QF.
Today her serve was smooth and her forehand DTLs were incredible.
Congrats Marina for breaking into top 200 for the first time. :)
But on the other side I have to say.
I felt so sad to see Yung-Jan that way,she played okay at the start and at the end.(saved 2 MPs at 4-5* second set.)
But in the middle,she just kept coughing badly. :crying2: And she just gave 0 smile during the whole match even when hit a great point.
Do not go to Shanghai and take a good rest girl.You've played too much recently.:sad:

Congrats Marina! Awesome!

Yung-Jan doesn't seem to be in good form since making the SF at Tokyo. She better rest and come back stronger in January! :)

Marina :)

YJ :hug:

Congrats Marina! Awesome!

Yung-Jan doesn't seem to be in good form since making the SF at Tokyo. She better rest and come back stronger in January! :)
She loads herself too much. :tape: Is ranking for Asian Games that important?Like she said she always reaches her goal for a year 2 months before year ends.Then why still play so much? :mad: Asian Games just messes everything up IMO.She can't get good,further training these months;can't take good rest either.And she has to play it Dec. 1~15.No season off it seems.Too bad. :sad:

Yung-Jan :sad:

You rock Marina!
