instead of adapting, staying patient, and constructing the points better...petra just let vinci outplay her...if petra wants any chance of winning RG this yr...she needs to learn how to slide...she got burned so many times w/ drop shots today that she couldn't handle at the net...
I'm not going to read too much into this - we knew Petra had been ill last week and not played much before coming to Poland. So it seems her stamina was affected by that at the end of the week. She should be in better shape come fed cup & stuttgart.
usually when petra is playing badly we see frustration - today she just looked knackered at the end.
I wonder what would've happened if she made that easy volley after setting up the point beautifully at 5-4* 0-15, instead of being so casual and flubbing it.
If Errani can push all the bombs Petra are shooting and Errani's spinballs dodge the court as quick as possible, then you know the surface is just manipulated to suit the Italians.
