Kim goes from AO favorite to a dud
only human
Well its not that bad. but her recent bizarre loss being totally in
control
in the medibank final up 5-0 in the 1st set. then not being able to keep
a ball in the court has to be a major concern for her going into the AO.
she's playing in a exo before play starts. i don't see how this will
help her any. but who knows

Doesn't matter. Tune-up, good week except the final. Still the huge
favourite at AO.

She is? If that is true, sounds silly because she played this week
until the final.

It is the Flood charity event. Not a big deal I think (though she took
part in the Earthquake charity event last year and look what happened!).

I thought it must be the Fed charity event again. Damn that there are
not any other popular female players and they have to get her there
straight from the final...

Well, Steffi can not be present everywhere!

She is still Aussie Kim, isn't she?
And 10 bucks to watch Federer, Nadal, Clijsters ... is a great deal for
the fans.

Lucky to win the semi actually, down 2-4 in 3rd & needed t/b.

You still don't see why Henin beats her in the money matches?
Henin loves the tough matches & raises her form, Kim panics. That means
Henin is a superior champion.

blind. Kim obviously had a physical problem. Maybe she suddenly
developed cramps or some other woman thing. Most female players take
some drugs to control their normal functions and that allows them to
play with the same consistency as men.
Kim showed the world that one could be a mother, a wife and a great
tennis champion at the same time, but not all the time. I believe that
her Australian chances are still very good because there was a reason
why her game went south suddenly.

Yes, cramps being a "women thing" ....
Maybe it had to do with her being a wife and mother first?

As you posted yourself, this was the first final Kim lost after her
comeback. Won the first 6, including two slams and YEC. No panicking.
I find this bashing campaign extremely childish. I have heard all that
a million times so don't care one bit, and I doubt nobody else cares
either.

I wasn't bashing Kim at all. i like her a lot.
i just think this loss was pretty odd being in total control against a
player she owned.

I was talking to Whisper obviously.
Fan
stress. One could see that even when she was up 50.
Your ignorance is beyod help.

the creator of this thread i assume you put
me in that block of bashers. i love this Belgian. and only want to see
good things for her. this loss made no sense from what i saw. but better
to have it happen here in a tune-up instead of at the AO.
i was surprised Kim couldn't calm down and get it together after the 3
double faults in a row. it all went down hill from there. and she
couldn't keep a ball in the court after that. that was just insane!

No. I said "bashing campaign" and I meant only Whisper. He paid no
attention to Sydney tournament until Kim lost, and then he started 4
(four) threads about that, with all the usual stuff about what a loser
she is. I have seen that so many times and it is so totally boring and
childish.

I know, I know. Don't worry, it was not about you.

Don't worry about that either, it was just a tune-up.
