Re: $100,000 Midland, MI (USA) 2013 | Feb 04 (Draws)
Commentators speculating that Lucic was just a classic case of burnout and not being able to deal with the expectations of being a promising player...
Yeah, I'm absolutely positive the psychological trauma from being brutally abused by her father and having to flee the country to escape from him before going through messy legal battles with IMG for years after weren't key factors at all.
Is it taboo to discuss Mirjana's past or something? |

Plus more or less she was forced to take anti depressives and failed on a doping control due to it. and that was just as hard for her to deal with because she's such a big sportswoman, fair honest as you can be

This. Fair enough if you don't want to get into the nitty gritty details of it, but don't discuss her lack of success at all if you're just going to pin it up to 'burnout...'

Burdette is playing doubles right now so take an eye on her if you have free time. |

Burdette seems to have lost some weight from what I remember seeing at Stanford last year.
