Re: Banana Bobusic 4 Eva! (Bojana Bobusic Cheering Thread)
She should be really happy with how well she played today despite the second set. If she carries on this form and confidence for the rest of the year I can honestly see her pushing for the top 100. She has already shown that she has the game to compete a WTA level.

Re: Banana Bobusic 4 Eva! (Bojana Bobusic Cheering Thread)
I had never heard of this girl before today but I was really impressed. She has won a new fan in me. I hope this will spur her onto better things in 2013 and get inside that top 150. She has a great game.

Was there today watching. Very impressive first set. Her serve is too weak though. Needs more power aswell.

Re: Banana Bobusic 4 Eva! (Bojana Bobusic Cheering Thread)
Unfortunately I didn't get to see her today, but mighty effort in that first set. Couldn't have gotten a seat if I tried though! The end result is nothing to be ashamed of
This year is just starting, but I'm excited about what's in store if she can keep her level up. It would be criminal if she didn't crack the top 200 this year. She has been very competitive in the 3 WTA events she's played so far. She needs to keep this up now, and hopefully won't be too much of a come down when she goes back to Oz $25K level. But she's gotta do it. Good luck

 that was so bad haha. The crowd knew absolutely nothing about her, while I was lining up outside everyone was going in to watch "some Aussie chick". The guys I was with thought her name actually was bobby when the crowd yelled it out, did they really think her parents would give her such a tongue twister of a name Bobby Bobusic??
About the actual game, only managed to get in when she was down 3-0 so I missed the good part in the first set. At least I had good seats for Ebden after (until he self destructed like all the others Aussies)

And from what this Aussie swing has lacked in terms of points, hopefully she has belief behind her which could be just as valuable.

Exactly. She should take so much from this. Played a mixture of top 5, 50, 100 opponents and mixed it with them all. Hopefully she can transfer this form to the grind of the ITF events.

Re: Banana Bobusic 4 Eva! (Bojana Bobusic Cheering Thread)
(3)Chanel Simmonds (RSA) v Bojana Bobusic (AUS)
I hate it how Boj has had such a great summer (winning AO wc playoff, qualifying for Brissy and almost beating Cornet, almost beating Davis and taking 5 games off the world number 4) but didn't even improve her ranking much.
I hope she can get a few wins in ITFs, then play some WTA's and try to qualify.

Re: Banana Bobusic 4 Eva! (Bojana Bobusic Cheering Thread)
3-6 6-2 5-0 is now 3-6 6-2 5-2
Please close it out Boj
Imo, she would be able to beat everyone in the field except Savic, who is in her quarter
