Alex is one of the reasons why WTA and ITF are redesigning the competition.
Shnyder, Zvonareva, Buzarenescu, Kanepi, ... all restarted from scratch and are already in the top-200. Some even in the top-70.
This girl is playing everywhere and has not made top-300 in 10 years.

Great win for Nell.

 

[gamesetmatchrafa]

This Miller girl (17yrs old ,unranked) upsetted higher ranked player in QR1 too. And almost beated arcangioli last week... obv. In good form.

 

[WhatTheDeuce]

I'm obsessed with a comeback story but Alex and her rude, overbearing mother are honestly so stale at this point. How does she even afford to keep travelling to all these tournaments? Go away already.

 

[Veesus Christ]

Alex may be the only player who can stop Muguruza in her tracks and become the 2018 Retirement Queen. Surprised she didn't take that route out of this one...

 

[jimbo mack]

Was this the year that Alex said she was going to win Wimbledon? Or was that 20 years ago?

I used to be on the side of, if she's still enjoying what she's doing she might as well play on, but those days are over. She's long past any sort of comeback hope and financially this is irresponsible. This week for example, flies all the way to Great Britain to play qualies of a $25k, plays two matches which means she doesn't get out of qualifying. I really don't understand how she has the money left at this point to do it! To top it off she either has to stay there or come back to the US because there is no event for her to play there next week, only viable option is in the US. Then she's committed to Spain and the US the week after?!

To top it off she's now at an all time low of being barely inside the top 800. She will have no choice, but to strictly play $15ks which I know she is above doing.

Ahh, but as I spoke to in her player thread, I'll continue to follow this sad story which makes me pretty sad I suppose. :smash:

 

[BlueTrees]

Sexy still a bit rusty at the start of her 2018 campaign. But she will only get better.

Still plenty of time to peak for Wimbledon :cheer:

She was actually within the top 175 a few years ago......

Her highest ranking in the last 10 years is #189 in 2009. She hasn’t entered the top 300 since 2012.

 

[Juju Nostalgique]

Never heard of Miller.

ITF Tennis - Pro Circuit - Player Profile - MILLER, Nell (GBR)

She beat Kuznetsova in 2015 :wink2:

Not the Pushnetsova we know though.

 

[goat]

Ouch. Wherr is thid cssh flow coming from? She ain't fit enough to be yaughting...

 

[LefandePatty]

Alex :hug:
Keep fighting girl

 

[pesto]

Not the Pushnetsova we know though.

I know, it just made me smile to see the name, though!>

In R1 of the main draw, Nell Miller just got trounced 0-6, 1-6 by #324 Jesika Maleckova, just to put into perspective where Stevenson's level is.

 

[the mixer]

I don't know why she put herself down for Midland last week instead of playing Glasgow as well, when she had a snowball's chance in hell of getting into the qualies of a 100k being ranked in the 700s.

I guess she's doing some coaching and that is paying for the flights in this crazy adventure, because what she won this week for her solitary UK tournament wouldn't even have covered airport transfers.

Highly likely she won't make the cutoff point for the new ITF pro system next year.

 

[Eyjafjallajokull]

Girl, you ship sailed LONG ago.
It just wasn't meant to be after.....2002???

Well, Miller is yet to win a main draw match, that might better for perspective. But not to be ujust, Malečková won 15k Stutgart Stammheim 2 weeks ago and is on 6 win streak now, undefeated this year so far, not dropping a set yet. So she might be on a roll and in good form, although she didn't face any particularly tough opponent yet this year.

 

[pesto]

She's too sexy for her racquet. It just turns into a gibbering wreck in her hands.

 

[Tomma17]

Her highest ranking in the last 10 years is #189 in 2009. She hasn’t entered the top 300 since 2012.

Either way, her 'not being ranked inside the top 300 in 10 years' is incorrect. 2012 was NOT 10 years ago, so the point stands.
