It just felt like her luck was about the run out.
And the fact that this withdrawal is in the shoulder area just ups the anxiety and worry. Let's face it, if she loses that shoulder again to a severe injury, it's over. Career done. She's not going through that rehab again.
Maybe it is precautionary in the end, but this is very ominous on the first day of 2013.

 to everyone.
That sucks to wake up to this news... (and hang over lmao oops) but yes i really hope she will be alright. It sucks because it is a new season, and we have no clue about her game and her fitness. It has to be a precaution, RIGHT ??!

Re: Brisbane 2013: The Re-Birth of PlexiPova GOAT.
What a bad news to wake up on new year's morning  I really wanted to see her play. But if she didn't feel match ready it was a good idea to skip Brisbane so she can prepare 100% for AO.
And happy new year to all you guys

Re: Brisbane 2013: The Re-Birth of PlexiPova GOAT.
Well, after watching her press conference, I am calming down. It seems that annoying injury is almost gone. She stated a couple of times she feels much better now. She will be fine.
And here is a little comparison how she practiced the first and the last days in Brisbane. I think the difference is obvious.

Maybe she'll take a WC to Sydney and flop the QF or something. I'd be so happy if I could see her here

Re: Brisbane 2013: The Re-Birth of PlexiPova GOAT.
I'm actually worried, just hearing it's near the shoulder is freaking me out.
I hope she'll be ready to play and will be completely healthy, which is still the most important thing for me.
And forget about it guys, she won't ask for a Sydney wildcard, she never does.

Re: Brisbane 2013: The Re-Birth of PlexiPova GOAT.
I would like to add that I'm not worried about her lack of matches though. She never seemed like the type of player that needed many matches to get ready for events such as Slams.

Idk it depends. It is a new year so ... I have no idea... It can be an awful thing ... I really hope I am just pessimistic.
