I wasn't on Sunshine's hate bandwagon until this year. A couple of games that i saw her play last year, she seemed to be injured in them, so she actually played more aggressive then usual and I thought she was fine. But this year... We have Eurosport, that covers whole WTA season, especially during clay season. And since she plays every single tournament her matches were constantly broadcasted. And watching her play was a torture. She was hitting all those short moonballs non-stop. That's why any decent hard-hitter beat her so easily.
When she plays like she did yesterday I have no problem watching her, with the exception of being bored because she reminds me of watching St.Kim during her previous years. Especially with the whole "How can you not like her? She's so nice and friendly and beautiful" attitude.

No. Hitting safe cross-court shots is not a strategy. It's not as if she's constructing a point to hit a winner. She's only trying to not miss, and she's able to play an inhuman quality of defense. Well, I'll concede a couple things... Sunshine does hit the big BH DTL on occasion to keep you honest. And her serve is pretty good.
The obvious problem with that is when Sunshine plays someone with offensive ability who doesn't stink that day, she will lose. Likely in the final again.
I thought Gael Force was before STD. I don't know the story of how STD earned his nickname. Hrmph.

I would think Kim is a better comparison than Hingis. Maybe I'm biased, or maybe its just the hair colour. Especially with the niceness, I've heard people saying Woz reminds them of Martina because she smiles, but she smiles at other people, where Martina only ever smiled at herself. Its not the same.

Hingis was the master offensive strategist, and St. Kim smacks her FH, often leading to ugly errors.
I think Sunshine compares best to Coetzer. A bigger Mandy with a serve. Rally wise, they're about similar. Mandy's big shot was the BH DTL and she usually rolled her FH. Sunshine rarely does the moonballing stuff anymore, though. But, if it was the 90s, she probably would be.

I think some of you exaggerate Wozniacki's pushiness. She's really not that bad.

Q. Do you think Cibulkova is a very, very good player? What do you think of her?
SVETLANA KUZNETSOVA: I think she plays good, but my level is higher, and I have to win these matches.
Q. Her game was difficult for you?
SVETLANA KUZNETSOVA: I played against myself, not against her.Sweater Williams

She's always been a sour bitch. I have no idea where this concept of sweetheart Sweata comes from.

Many of the Russian girls are nice. They're only retarded on court.
