As you know, I'm doing Roland Garros thread this year. So, I should pick up my skills. After that disappointing lose in Melbourne we should get ready for the upcoming tournament. Venus has never lost at that amazing and gorgeous tournament. I rally want this premier title, so Vee get your shit together and fly for Paris soon.
Why she should play in Paris:
-She can win her 45th singles title;
-She has never lost there and she can continue her streak (3-0);
-Last time she had played there, she was in RG final;
-She can enter top 20;
-She will be able to show some of her new EleVen spring collection :lol:
Some interesting pictures, videos and informations
First of all, this is my second cheering thread. My first one was the Rome 2012 and she win through the QF. It was her best clay court performance since Rome 2010 and I think this thread gonna be a good charm for Venus. I don't really care if she withdraw! That thread is mine! :lol:
Banditoo, I thought this was Roland Garros' cheering thread at first. :lol: I was thinking you were very fast to create it, but then I realized it was the one for Paris indoors. Nice job! Let's hope she wins this tournament and gets career title number 45
What a horrible few days in Melbourne! I really hope Venus plays here and that she can do well. I hope she is already on a flight to Paris so she has time to rest before the event.
I really wish Kvitova hadn't entered the draw! Errani and Bartoli are more beatable opponents!! Though Kvitova's form isn't great either.
I hope Venus can shake off some of the rust and work her way into this tournament!!
kwilliams, I am not sure if she will play, because she has an autograph signing for Eleven event on 27-th January. I do not know. I think she will withdraw, because Paris begins from 28-th January.
Unlikely to me that she goes Melbourne to LA and then to Paris all in the space of a week
Then even if she does, what kind of Venus shows up to play. Can handle her losing to Sharapova, but don't fancy a jetlagged Venus half arsing a loss to someone like Vinci on an indoor court.
If i were her, i'd maybe forget about Paris now and just enter Dubai instead.
Of course, I want Venus to play Paris, but like Queen_Vee said, there is no point in playing in Paris if she is jetlagged. But it's really up to Venus, if she decides to show up and play, fine.... if she withdraws, still fine Hopefully, she will play in Doha and Florionoplisnkjdhfjh and will do better than at AO!
I knew that the withdrawal would be coming. :zzz: These courts would have been perfect for her too. Shame.
Now hopefully she'll play a singles match during Fed Cup. Doha is loaded with every top player and she won't be seeded, so she can't afford to be rusty.
