If it's OK with everyone, let's do both a Livescores thread for Na, and a regular thread for her with information. The "Cheering" thread now has 5 full pages of livescores at the end, and it is better to separate them so we can find information.
Na couldn't get her first serves in when she got tight. Same crap happened again and again when she's leading in the matches. Hopefully this mental weakness will go away in 2013 and her games will be successfully transformed.
well some things I noticed during the YEC (I've not been a fan of Na for as long as most of you, so this might all be old news):
Na's first serve sucks when it shouldn't suck.
When Na gets broken, she often breaks straight back.
When Na breaks she gets broken back.
Na can't handle the pressure of winning a set or match.
Maybe Na has too much respect for opponents like Azarenka or Williams.. especially the former.
I prefer her new serves. They are getting faster and powerful. She did get more first serves in with her old serves, but they were easily attacked by her opponents.
They will work on the consistency and speed of her new serves during off-season for sure and it will be one of her weapons for the next two seasons before her retirement.
