When I first saw the thread title,I guessed that 'pov' was the OP....Another one of those threads with an extremely short shelf life of relevance like,'Kvitova Bought Some New Shoes at the Store Today: Do You Like Her Fashion Taste?'
I wondered if Petra had picked up an irritable koala on a tour of a local petting zoo...and then had the creature snap at her.However,with tourney threads,it's nice to have you contribute your creative touch once in a while,Paul

Re: Petra versus Koala in Brisbane
she's still the defending champion, correct? 
it's rare we have individual thread for a low level tournament |

Sydney is a major metropolitan area in Australia,so it's unlikely that Petra will find any koalas(or is the plural 'koalae'?)wandering around in the hotel lobby there

Well, if she's using that Charter Jet/promotion that her and Tomas have; it's possible that the planes aren't big enough (especially with their deals or what they pay for) for direct flights?
If it was me: Depending on the time difference, I just may take a direct first class flight from the nearest location/airport?
