Best and worst match of 2012
Best (one sided): Serena Williams def. Victoria Azarenka (Wimbledon)
Absolutely nothing Azarenka could do except watch missiles fly past her. Victoria wasn't playing that badly herself.
Best (close match): No match comes to mind.
Worst: (one sided): No match comes to mind.
Worst (close match): Maria Sharapova def. Li Na (Rome)
Horrendous errors, choking.
What are your picks?

Re: Best and worst match of 2012
Best (one sided): Serena Williams def. Maria Sharapova (Wta Championships)
Masha was good , but Serena was the best possible on HC these days
Best (close match): Maria Sharapova def Samantha Stosur (Stuttgart)
Worst: (one sided): Shvedova def Sara Errani (Wimbledon) Golden Set , enough said.... next candidate is Sam Stosur in Istanbul and Mashenka at Olympics, but it's more about total domination of one player vs the other
if just quality wise the worst match in 2 sets was Maria Sharapova def Li useless Na (Miami)
Worst (close match): Li Na def Sabine Lisicki (Miami) Both girls should be ashamed of their performance

Re: Best and worst match of 2012
I thought Razzano def. Serena at the FO was pretty entertaining, in terms of drama anyway, otherwise it was pretty shite.

Re: Best and worst match of 2012
I missed quite a lot of the mentioned matches but I really enjoyed the Eastbourne final. I suppose I wasn't expecting an awful lot from it but the rallies were very intense plus there was the drama with Paszek saving all those MPs. So many finals have been damp squibs but this one definitely surpassed expectations.
Wozniacki vs. Li in Tokyo was garbage quality on the other hand. It was just laughable at some points.

Re: Best and worst match of 2012
Drama wise, Razzano-Serena and Clijsters-Li comes to my mind.
