Re: Things you want Maria to achieve/do in 2013.
Like I said in the other thread, I've got my expectations so dangerously high  but I honestly would be SERIOUSLY disappointed if she didn't win a Slam this year. Actually, I'm thinking (or, atleast, I've convinced myself) that an AO-RG double is realistic. Then she can pass the baton on to her heir-apparent Petra for the other 2 slams.

I think she could it at RG. Otherwise it would take a miracle.

I'm just so glad Maria is in the type of form where we can expect lofty things from her now.

Not that I think that she would be the favorite, but I think that Maria would have a decent chance of beating Serena at the FO.

Re: Things you want Maria to achieve/do in 2013.
I want Maria to develop a legitimate FH slice and slide into her FH for the clay. She should handily sweep the clay season again if she could do that.
I've said it before, but use your BH DTL this season please.
I'm always so anxious at the start of a season.
Please don't flop Maria and more than anything else just remain healthy.

You know that, if they were to meet at the FO, Serena will play her best tennis, which is too much for everyone, and Maria will lose again

Re: Things you want Maria to achieve/do in 2013.
You know, I'd almost pick Miami over a fifth Slam title after all those Finals she lost
My expectations aren't that high to be truthful, all I really expect from her is to beat everyone she's supposed to beat, and not suffer any beatdowns.
