Justine only struggled finishing matches. She wasn't completely useless in slams, and at least gave the Sistahz tough matches early on.

Also, I'd totally do Azza. I have no idea why. Same. I think it's the perky nipples. We should have a WTA thread to mirror the sexxing ATPers one. Increasingly agree that Safina is a lacklustre #1. Disagree with the Shrieky Vicky for #1 stuff. Her game isn't big enough, and yes she does have weaknesses - FH is a liability in high intensity rallies, trading pace for placement on serve to get a very high 1st serve % doesn't always work - she could have used more free points off her serve today. I'm beginning to love the local sports channel. First I learn that they'll be covering WTA Bastad, and today they showed Lena D.'s QF taped as soon as the 2nd QF on Centre Court was over. Dementieva was spectacular off the ground at times. Other than the DFs, she played a good match.

But, everyone here is Ballbuster loves men!!1 :hearts:.
FH, agreed, I guess. She doesn't like getting rushed to that side. It broke down today, but so would have everyone else against Serena. The serve thing isn't true. Azza is regularly over 100 MPH. She's not pushing it.
Pointless note: Vika's page at the Wimbledon site is getting a ton of hate comments about her grunting. Of course, M. Sharapova receives 100x of "Who is the beautiest? Maria Sharapova. Who is the best? Maria Sharapova. Maria, I love you and best luck for you." This is why I hate people.

But, everyone here is Ballbuster loves men!!1 . They could post anyway, and then I'd dismiss their comments with a "Aren't you a Ballbuster loves men!!1 :hearts:? What the fuck would you know then?."

Shrieky Vicky is already hated by the average tournament goers in a way that it may become an issue in the future, even if she seems to find it amusing for now.

We should definitely have a WTA thread - there's a lot of new talent out there now. Yes about Safina. I have to disagree and agree re: Azarenka. She may not become #1 in the next year, but I do see her as a multiple Slam winner and future #1. She has a more complete game than any of the other up and comers and I really liked the attitude vs Serena compared to the disaster against Petrova where she had a mini-meltdown. I agree about the serve too, and I picked up on it in her QF yesterday. She was compromising pace for placement. Also, if she'd place it out wide, I was waiting for a good slice serve, but she's just take off pace and focus solely on placement. This does need work and development.
