Ai lost in singles

So I guess she's focusing on the doubles now... I hope they win it, I really really do.

60 61 against Ji/Sun

IMPRESSIVE!

Impressive in both singles & doubles

Too bad Sugiyama lost in singles

It was a very relaxing match to watch--no worries on
my part at all! They basically demolished Ji/Sun, who had to
fight really hard to get that one game.

It went so fast I forgot to take out my camera until
match pt.

But it was really good to see them play so well--both
Kata and Ai were really on top of their games, and having
fun.

Down a break right now against Kirilenko- 2-4

SloKid · Aug 30th, 2007, 06:46 PM

Kata started her match against Kirilenko, just broke back for *3-4.

Vakulenko awaits the winner.

SloKid · Aug 30th, 2007, 07:02 PM

4-6
This is so typical.

She better fight back...or else I will not be in the slightest bit amused.

Highlandman · Aug 30th, 2007, 07:14 PM

Now 1-1 in 2nd, I hope she can break her now. She is normally definitely the better player.

SloKid · Aug 30th, 2007, 07:21 PM

Finally up a break, now she needs to build on it and take control.

Keaka · Aug 30th, 2007, 07:46 PM

^ 46 35 15-0*

SloKid · Aug 30th, 2007, 07:47 PM

Yes, I know, I didn't expect anything else, she never uses her opportunities.

Boreas · Aug 30th, 2007, 07:54 PM

I was expecting win. And now she lost in straight sets

SloKid · Aug 30th, 2007, 07:56 PM

There's really no excuse, she should go and learn a thing or two from Kozmus about big game mental preparations.

Well, maybe she will learn at 30s, but then it will be too late anyway

. At her ages she should be really much better in the cruicial moments than Kirilenko

Keaka · Aug 30th, 2007, 08:19 PM

At least Klepac is mentally strong

True, but it'll only help her in her doubles career.

She's becoming more and more of an expert. But I do have my doubts, because she never seems to learn anything from her defeats, if she had then I don't know if we would've seen matches like against Davenport last year or Dementieva or Peer this year.
