|
|
By:

|

By:

so hopefully I will get some sleep. but it's harder to do the short caramba naps for me at the moment, cause I'm suppose to have an ointment in my eyes when I sleep and my vision gets blurry for about two hours when I have that in.

By:
The first week of the tennis season is one of the toughest to sleep in general. Given the action starts at about 11am UK time and often goes on to early evening with effectively no breaks.

By:
9pm UK time Aaron, but it's only Q tonight.
I think only WTA Brisbane and WTA Shenzhen main draws start tonight, as well as Hopman Cup. |
|
By:
Barthel has missed the off season with a torn ligament, not sure how much practice she has under her belt coming into this match (hence Konjuh favourite).
|
|
By:
In her ankle I think.
|

By:
Caramba already complaining.
It's the road to the Happy Slam ffs. |

Wonder if ZIG will make a permanent return to the forum tonight.
|
|
By:
Maybe I should have posted one of those Sharapova in her ice jacket with her eyes everywhere at the Australian Open when it had the heat wave.
|
|
By:
I'm sure SiG will be back once the tennis season starts. Whether that's tonight not sure, don't know if he's a night owl.

By:
it was a lovely Sabine pic actually. I'm sure she'd find a way to mug whether she was in the opening post or not.
|
|
By:
yes, yes she would

“I did get my heart broken; I really did,” she said. “I’m over it, but it was broken. And I’m not afraid to admit that it was, but it’s life.”

Azarenka was often prepared to second-guess herself during a several-hour interview conducted in her car, at a raw-food restaurant she chose in West Hollywood, and in the downtown studio of James Haunt, a pop artist she met via Instagram who is working on her portrait. But on balance her mood was much more upbeat than regretful. She was open, curious, occasionally profane and often reflective, picking her words carefully and proving much more willing to linger over sensitive topics than in previous encounters.
“I think the toughest part is to admit that you weren’t O.K.,” she said of 2014. “Somebody asked me at one stage, ‘Are you depressed?’ And I said: ‘Are you kidding me? I’m not depressed.’ But you know what? I was. I was, but I just didn’t realize it, because all these things happen, and you just don’t know how to deal with emotions.” |

Bring that match up, even in passing, and Azarenka is quick to wince, still quick to deny any intent to cheat but also newly critical of her communication strategy, saying she should have addressed the topic once and left it there instead of giving dozens of interviews in an attempt to control the damage.
She said that she might have been treated differently if she had been American or Australian, and expressed particular irritation with some commentators suggesting the Stephens affair had not troubled her before the final against Li Na. “They have no idea what I went through those two days,” she said, her voice never rising. “They had no idea how much I cried those two days. They had no idea that Sam came to me in my room and he brought me wine and said, ‘Vika, I think you may need some wine because you are stressed out.’ “ She went on to win the title, which Sumyk considers her most impressive performance in light of the circumstances, but which did not succeed in endearing her to the Australian Open masses, who greeted her with ambivalence in her return last year. |
