I'm officially more dead than Justine's career. 
But at least I have a break now until next Tuesday when I have all 3 of my finals on the same day.....

The DF on match point.  Please fix your serve so I don't lose my sanity in 2013.

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
Groundies looked good and some of the movement was great.
Worried about her stamina as she seemed to be trying really hard and getting pretty tired, and VERY worried about the serve and whether we're ever going to see it as a huge weapon again.
Hopefully she just acted like she was really trying, and was actually in Rena exo mode

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
Haha a win in the dubs against Kim, I'll take that.
I want to see the match or highlights.
I hope Venus is working hard this off season.

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
the headlines 
"Clijsters ends career with win over Venus Williams"
And why can't I find any pictures of this event?

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
I was there!
Btw, yeah, I was kinda worried about the serve also. As at first she served very weak, but then she started adding more power. I kinda think this might be Venus trying one or two new things as in Luxembourg she said she was going more for percentage than power. So she might want to mix her serve more and she used this exhibition as an experiment.
Her ground-stroke games looked fine though, but still, too many errors
Btw, I dunno if it was aired or not, but after the match there was a talk-show by the court about Kim (this was between the singles and doubles match), and Venus was one of the guests. They both said nice things to each other, basically (and Clijsters mentioned Serena as well). Venus said she first noticed Clijsters when she was playing Serena in 3R of USO 1999 and was thinking: "Who is this girl trying to beat my sister?". Then Venus said about her last two encounters with Clijsters at the USO (2009 and 2010) and Clijsters ended up winning the title in both occassions. Clijsters (jokingly) said Venus was her good luck charm, then; and Venus answered Clijsters was her bad luck charm, lol. Then, Clijsters said because she is gone now so Venus can win the Open.
And I do hope she was really in exhibition-mode (like Serena) and let Clijsters have that win. This was her very last match anyway...

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
Yes Kim, you broke our hearts and spitted each bit out in US Open 2010
As for the exhibition, aren't these things supposed to be close....like at least one 7-5 or tiebreak set?!
I am concerned about Vee's serve but I guess we'll see in Melbourne how it really is. |
