12 Jan


Not much action today, with Hobart being completely washed out. They're going to struggle to complete the tournament with a poor forecast for the next few days and the Aus Open looming, which gives them no room for an overrun.

Was surprised to see Jovanovski win, as usually when I flag up a performance of note on here the player has a stinker next match up! Here's an eyewitness account of her match with Rezai and today's with Penne. Shows there's often a lot more to a match than the bare scoreline!

And it's always nice to see Kleybanova winning. She's not got a body type best suited for the sport so it's great to see her do well. None of us choose how we're born, we can only play the cards we're dealt.

It'll be interesting to see reaction to the alleged sex tape of Vesnina that's been leaked on the web. The WTA seems to have been deliberately promoting a sexier image for the players in the past couple of years. Lets hope there's no double standards applied.

Had a short nap after the Jovanovski match and missed the off for Clijsters. By the time I woke up her price had collapsed, dammit!
