Re: Danish Delight - Caroline Wozniacki thread - vol 5
I've said all along that if she is making changes, do it now. She never won more than 3 matches at any Wimbledon, so get this stuff settled before hardcourt season.
But ultimately, she has to play better at the key moments. She got to 4-4 with the racket/strings/mechanics she was using. You either close or you lose, and she's been losing to a lot of players who will never be #1 or win a major

Re: Danish Delight - Caroline Wozniacki thread - vol 5
Since I watched Goerges beat Caroline in Dubai I thought Caroline should be trying different racket/strings. So I'm glad she's doing this. Its never a panacea. She plays well enough to get to 4-4 with the old string tension. No matter what the tension, she has to play well and hold her serve.
But this certainly makes her round 1 match wild. Paszek just beat Kerber & Bartoli, and Caroline lost 4 of her last 6 matches & uses a different string tension.
Bring it on!

Re: Danish Delight - Caroline Wozniacki thread - vol 5
I'm also glad if she's finally changed her strings/racket/weight or whatever. Watching her last few matches, it's been quite clear that she's lacking power/weight on her shots. It's frustrating, a lot of times she sets up well the point but she can't put the ball away. Hopefully this will help her finish off points. I don't want her to blast winners from every shot, that's not her game but she needs to be able to hit a winner from a puff/short ball.
Her first round should be a good test, I just hope she doesn't end up losing a tight 3 setter once again.

Re: Danish Delight - Caroline Wozniacki thread - vol 5
At the 2011 Wimbledon, some mixed teams got in with worse combined ranking than Caro/Nielsen of 2012, if I'm not mistaken. So I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Good news that Caro wants to play mixed doubles, it could help her to improve some parts of her game and enjoy the matches

Re: Danish Delight - Caroline Wozniacki thread - vol 5
Last match on Court2? Giving Paszek as much recovery time as possible. How's the weather tomorrow?

Cool, mostly cloudy, and a very small chance of drizzle late in the day.

Stood near Caroline Wozniacki earlier, she was sneezing & had a red nose. Could be hay fever but if it's a cold she may struggle tomorrow.

Argh. Why does Caro keep having these illnesses and injuries this year? Has all the matches she's played the past couple of years cought up?

RT @ jimmyboejgaard: Rumours of Caro's "illness" exaggerated and distorted. She's fine and ready to go. #wimdk
