Dolonc is neither a ball basher nor did she play particularly well.
Don't make excuses for Jelena this match. I can accept when she's overpowered but this is not one of those times--her FH was routinely either 1.) short 2.) bouncing slow and high 3.) falling straight into the net. She didnt dictate play much with her BH either. Not to mention her atrocious "volleys" (I cant even describe them as such).
Dolonc played well and she kept her head clear and focused, which was able to beat an all around sub par JJ.
She probably won't even try in doubles. I sense that she is eager to finish up her obligations at Wimbledon MM now that she has received her appearance fee.
Well if stupid Wikipedia hadn't changed my assessment of Jaja's game you'd all know that she has "interesting volleys" which is why she doesn't come to net more.
Your page was edited so that MM Wimbledon vultures like Dolonc couldn't get the upper hand on JJ's game and rid her of a chance to use her "tennis" "knowledge".

Because you are an unwritten idiot JJ...
And we still love you...
Vesna was just playing out of her mind and Jelena looked confused. Overall, this tournament is a shint and a lot of big names have already lost, so let's not blame on her, she can't play on grass when she faces an in-form player. At least she's trying to win some doubles and I hope she appears on that royal party.
"Who is this person?"
"Why is she hitting the ball back to me?"
"Why am I here?"
"Who are these people watching me?"
"I wonder what time Harrods closes."
"Now, where did I put my credit card..."
"Ooooh, shiny!!"
Does JJ always say moronic stuff like this? I know we hear her say outrageous things but they are usually taken as a joke and usually light hearted, but does she realize her saying this makes her sound pretty stupid? She's claiming "big serve, volley, boom boom point over" is INSULTING to her tennis "intelligence"? Does she think there's only one way to play tennis? How the hell does she think the Williams sister's won Wimbledon 5 times each? THAT'S WHAT IT TAKE GURL. Basically saying playing on grass insults her tennis intelligence proves she doesn't have that much tennis intelligence to begin with
Jelena, shanking forehands and dumping volleys into the net and double faulting is not the only way to play tennis... learn to adapt and just play...
I'm frustrated with Jj too, it's like the tennis gods were asking her to make the qf and top 10 by taking out every relevant name in the quarter for her : hysteric: and those comments are wtf but understandable for me... Se must be really disappointed and bitter. Onto the USO, but first the doubles title here
Just to clear out, Jelena's problem with grass only comes at Wimbledon, because she never seems to enjoy playing in London. She's reached a couple of Birmy finals, won one of them against a Wimbly champ and also has a final in Den Bosch. I don't say that it's her surface, I just want to emphasize that London is her problem. Was a mixed doubles champ, but that was a moment of glory.

JJ will win the US Open. Why anyone would even waste time contesting Wimbledon MM is beyond me. Sharapova and Azarenka were wise enough to bail as soon as they could. How many points does the singles champion get? 280? Not even worth it imo.
Her next tournament should be Mercury Open in about 4 weeks. And I like she is going to rest some time she needs it. She overplayed it again. I'm sure she would beat Maria if she didn't play that much doubles etc.
And it's so awful/painful to watch the tournament continue epsecially her draw with Kvitova playing currently like crap. She could've reached finals with a semi win against Marion. Can U believe Marion will play Finals again!?
I know grass doesn't suit her well but she played sometimes solid tennis on that surface. Remember Venus,Myskina,the destruction of Alona! On Wedenesday her serve was crap and her FH was on preschool level just the usual issues! She should start play double handed FH like Marion or like Bozoljac BH both side techncic wise!
Yeah, it's really painful keep watching the tournament advance as you realize it was the biggest cake draw of the century!!!!!! I want Wimbledon to finish ASAP Don't torture more
Rather than ask on GM and get potentially slaughtered for my lack of know-how please come some of my lovely fellow Jankobitches explain what credits are? And if they're at all useful for anything, can I redeem them to win a prize or something?
It's kind of like getting a "Like" on Facebook almost. Or an "upvote" on Reddit. If you like what someone said you can give them good credit/reputation.
As far as I know I don't think you can redeem it for anything. Ever since I spent the $25 to become a lifetime member it seems I get credit/reputation just for posting in a certain thread. I once edited a comment for a spelling error, and I had 3 more credit/reputation after I did the edit Maybe since you spent money TF gives you more, I don't know
