4-6-2-6 to Radwanska. We need more matches. Please play stuff during the winter.

Elena only played 2 tournaments to end the year and for the entire year for that matter. She really needs to fatten up on some challengers this winter and start rebuilding her game.

Elena has not entered Poitiers.

I wish she had entered Pittsburgh; there's some good competition there. But I'd rather see her in the qualies. She could beat Alex Stevenson there! Hope she won't have to go down to $10K qualifying level, à la Dokic.

I don't think she'll go down that far, but she may have to go to $25k's, since I don't believe she has any sort of special ranking for 2007.

She has no SR in 2007. She can get some WC's, but after those run out, she really might need to drop to the 10Ks.

I think $25k's would gladly give Elena a WC.
It shouldn't be necessary, though. She still has game.

Post by Pamela Shriver on Nov 5, 2006 15:43:19 GMT -5
She can only take seven WC's a year, I think.

That's probably all she'd need. Even at Elena's current crappy state, that would be good enough to win them.

Somebody cleaned up the Wikipedia entry.

Why does Willow keep editing Elena's page.

One of the mods cleaned it up. Then it was out of date, and I wouldn't want Elenas legions of fans to be misinformed.

I just had a quick snooze during which I dreamt that I met Elena on a train. She was very friendly and even carried some of my bags. So thats nice.

She is nice Willow. Most players would not help you with your bags in a dream or in real life. But Elena is different.

Bovina was a really nice player. She would always hang around the public areas of tournaments and wait for people to talk to her.

Is.

Post by Calico on Nov 16, 2006 20:38:10 GMT -5
Leelee, let's hope Bovina still is a good player. I also hope Elena plays some challengers this offseason so she can get the rust off her game and find some level of her old top 20 form.
|

Post by leelee on Nov 16, 2006 21:02:35 GMT -5
Top 14 (equal to Top 10 today).

Post by Calico on Nov 17, 2006 20:35:06 GMT -5
Youre being a bit of a nitpicker Leelee. Let's hope Lena can win some matches and find her form and some confidence. She really is starting over and that has to be tough on her.

I don't understand why we're not playing until January.

I don't understand why we're not playing until January. Good question. Have you checked Wikipedia for an answer?

Lena has signed up to play the Open Gaz de France next year.
The Parisian crowd breathes a sign of relief.

Post by leelee on Dec 7, 2006 12:55:29 GMT -5
Sigh.
Ugh, I'm getting a horrible feeling about 2007 for our Elena. Only plays the highest events early on, wins very few matches, then gets injured for the rest of the year.

Then retires and goes on to become a successful businesswoman.
