[CareerSlamPova]

After a much better year,with a lot of disappointments too,2012 can be a great year,considering Pova wins slams only in even years. So what do you want Masha to achieve/win/do in 2012,post here,and check back when the year ends.

1.WIN A SLAM and/or Olympic Gold.
2.Beat Kvitova , Na , bagel Sammy , beat Kim,Caro and Serena.
3.Play atleast 16 tournaments before the YEC.
4.Make the QFs or better at all slams. Too much.
5.Qualify for the YEC.
6.Win atleast 4-5 titles.
7.Learn to CONVERT BREAKPOINTS.
8.Minimize the DFs to less than 7 a match.

Win AO, win FO, win Olympic Gold, win Wimbledon, win us open, win yec.
win everything in between.
overtake Karolina for #1.

i'm not unrealistic or anything...

[CareerSlamPova]

^Golden Slam.

I will just be fine if she breaks the slam duck she has had since 2008.

[doooma6816]

I want a Slam! Thanks.

[heelsrule1988]

She's basically back to being her old self as far as being near the top of the rankings goes... so really, I just want two things from her: another Slam and a win over Serena.

[Mr.Sharapova]

Fix her serve and clean up her game. The others will follow .

this. + healthy, and play a full schedule. + the golden slam

[Break My Rapture]

I'd like a medal at the OG and another great result at the AO. I really miss Maria going far in that event, sometimes I feel like Melbourne and Maria go together.

Also to learn how to convert BPs and improve her lazy ass footwork (I remember nearly scratching my eyes out during USO R3 when Maria didn't move her fucking feet after she served). These two things INFURIATED me throughout the year but particularly the last couple of months of the season.

To do well at Slams, maybe QF at AO, SF at FO, QF at Wimby and R4 at USO(hopefully she wont lose before the 4th round next year at Slams )
To win 2-3 titles, for example Rome and Tokyo and Birmingham as a smaller event
To stay in the Top 8 all year and remain injury free
To play at least 14 events
To get a win over a top player would be nice too
FIX HER SERVE but that's just a fantasy
To be happy and positive like she was for most of this year

Good luck in 2012 Masha

What's with your B'ham obsession? It's really not that important of a tournament.

[Kitten63]

I want her to win RG and then I can die happy

[JoPova]

Two words: Roland Garros. But really I'd be happy to see her win any Slam actually. It's just that RG is the missing one.

[Cherry.]

Any GS or an Olympic medal (not necessarily gold; silver or bronze will do, too) and I'll be more than ecstatic.
Oh and what Shivank and Pieter have already mentioned: LEARN TO CONVERT THOSE GAZILLIONS OF BPS (GPs as well, basically all those points at crucial moments).

[denny5576]

Play all year like against Serena Wimbledon 2010:
1st Serve %: 63 - 65
Winning % on 1st Serve: 75 - 80
Winning % on 2nd Serve: 53 - 55
Average 1st Serve Speed: 108 - 109 mph
Average 1st Serve Speed: 96 - 98 mph
Return Games Won: > 50%

Ratio UE /Points: < 0.3

Then Maria could win any GS & OG

[Trih]

I want her to keep improving, from 2010 to 2011 it was going better, to continue like that. To have the right confidence.
I'd love a GS AND a medal a the OG. A Career Golden Slam would be a dream coming true.

[Julian.]

Win a slam and fix the serve
