Never mind: Austin is not even ranked!
But then I remembered Lisjak isn't ranked either! 
When was the last time two unranked players played in a GS event?!?

Re: The "Ivana Lisjak deserves a cheering thread" thread
Ivana definately got VERY lucky with the draw, now it's only a question if she's ready to make the most of it. If she is not, then she should seriously consider retirement, cause this girl is 16 y.o., unranked wild-card entry (as mentioned) and making her grand slam debut. Ivana has to get out there with a clear mission of resolving this quickly and easily, there's no alternative. She should dictate the game from the first point and give no place to question of who is in charge on the court. Her lack of match-play is no excuse in this match, cause Austin last played a competitive pro match back in February. Not to mention that she's played a total of 10 professional events in her whole career and that she's never beaten someone ranked higher than #573.
Go get it Ivana!

Re: The "Ivana Lisjak deserves a cheering thread" thread
She was always such a huge choker, but I didn't thougt she couldn't handle some girl that's unranked and can't win 2 matches in 10k's. Please never play pro match again!

She just was reminded why she retired in first place.
No serve at all, no brain. |

Re: The "Ivana Lisjak deserves a cheering thread" thread
I don't know how this girl plays but I really doubt she has big game when she needs 3rd set tie break to win 1st round of Q-draw at 10k.
But she wasn't even on fire, she had 18 DF's! 18, unranked and Ivana can't win!
How the hell has she won 8 games vs. Casey?
