Shinobu asagoe fans

YAY, Shin beat Nadia, 6-4 2-6 6-4!!! I really wanted to go see this, but I twisted my ankle! Oh well, if I don't catch Shino at DFS I'll go see her at Wimby! Great win, and next up is Golovin, who beat Shin at IW this year. Time for revenge Shinobu!!

That was TV interviews on WOWOW during the French Open weeks.
Former tennis player, Mana Endo was an interviewer.

Shinobu More great wins
She has a grat slam record now:
4th round of Wimby and Paris and third round New York
Win your 1st tournie, Shino
Hi dismal and I luv Chanda

Sammm, i_love_chanda

Shinobu lost 4 and 0 to Golovin

Maybe she was too tired after her match against Nadia...but still, I did think she had a strong chance to take her first pro title

Anyway, get better soon Shinobu! I wish her luck in the tourny that really matters (i.e. Wimbledon)

dismal_aptitude and Sammm! hehe....

Well, Shino lost Still, a good week I think, though she will have a slight drop in the rankings, but another strong win, against Petrova of course. Looks like Shinobu is coming into form right when she needs it. Lets hope she has a favourable draw at Wimby, as I think she is going to be just outside the seeds!

GO SHINOBU! :yeah:

Shino opens up against Lisa Raymond It's a tough tough match, especially on the grass but I still think Shinobu has a great chance, esp after RG and Birmingham.

Go Shinobu!!!!!!!!!

Shinobu and Ai are looking a better doubles team now. They are playing tohether in the Olympics, but they lost 1st tround in San Diego and LA; however they're doing much better in Montreal this week. They're in the semis after destroying Likhovtseva/ Zvonareva 6-2, 6-1 maybe they can challenge for an olympic medal, just maybe?

Shino/ Ai win tier 1 Toronto! Shino's first tier 1! They beat tammy/ Huber 6-0, 6-3!

Shino into round 3 @ USO!

bt. Smashnova-Pistolesi 2-6 6-4 6-1
bt. Craybas 7-5 6-3

Why aren't Ai/Shino playing together anymore?? they won Toronto and came 4th at Athens!

I hope Shinobu manages to beat Paola today! She's mentioned before that hardcourt is her favourite surface.

Good luck Shinobu!

Good luck, Shino!
Paola is tough, but maybe maybe she can do it!!

Good luck, Shino!
Paola is tough, but maybe maybe she can do it!!
Once she passes Paola, there's another chance!!

Shino won, shes playing so well, and shes really hungry for it, and her draw is pretty open wide, I hope she can win in the fourth round.

She plays Daniilidou now, she can win!!!!

Go Shinobu! Ganbatte!

SHES WON

She won!!!!!!!!! 7-6 4-6 6-3!!

It was a very close match. She went down an early break, Eleni up 5-3 had a set point I think. She was really close in the 2nd set having many points for 5-4 but got a little nervous. Then she raced to 5-0, had a match point, but got really nervous and Eleni won 3 quick games. In the last game Eleni had two points for 5-4 but Shin went for her shots more, the entire match, and she deserved to win. She looked ecstatic at the end!

Well played Shinobu!!!!

I didnt know she had this thread!

Ive been a big fan of hers since Memphis 2002 when I saw her in qualies..I do think I was the only one cheering for her through the whole tournament besides her coach ...

Make it a SF Shino!

Go Shino!!!!!!!!!!!
