Re: AO 2013: The Bridesmaid-Bride Double. The Sequel.
Ok, I'm starting to contemplate the possibility of the weather affecting Maria, because it's so much better than the alternative of her looking like a mental midget satisfied that she even got that far

That does sum it up for the match and extremely disappointing.

Not even mad. Disappointed, of course, but Na's an amazing player when she's on and at least it was much tighter than the score indicates... Maria's form throughout this tournament should give all of us hope for a great season ahead of us. 
Ps. The last time Maria lost in an Australian Open SF, she won the US Open later that year...  |

But she beats Maria 2 and 2. She beat Vika 2 and 3. She really took it to Serena in 2010. If Na plays her best on this surface, only Serena can stop her. Of course, if ErrorNa shows up, anybody can beat her!
Agnieszka, why were you nervous and lost your QF?!?!?!?!?!?

Now what I would love to see is Na Li beating Azarenka in the final when Vika can't be the winner take it all scenario. Please Please Please let that happen and stop that cocky bitch.

What is the secret to that recipe?  I'm so frickin' disappointed in how she played, what with pushing 99% of her balls, and how she "fought"

The real disappointment is not that she lost but how she lost. She had lots of opportunities. You just don't see Shar let so many pass her by. This is the reason a tough match was needed. There was a ridiculous jump from the other opponents to Li.

Re: AO 2013: The Bridesmaid-Bride Double. The Sequel.
I was heartbroken the second she lost. But it's been like 10 minutes and I'm over it
Masha never had a chance today tbh, if she'd pushed it to a third and fell thy I would've been devastated but she was comprehensively outplayed today mainly due to the fact she is yet to play a top player this year. At least she'll be extra motivated to destroy Na the next time (I just hope their h2h doesn't swing in na's favour again) still hilarious to me how mashas only outdoor hc loss to Na has come in a slam SF
Way to fuck up |
