i doubt it also, but then i think it's not like she was a young
budding future superstar or a multiple slam winner who is now going to
lose for psychological reasons. she's been losing slams all her
career.

She seemed OK at the trophy ceremony, but she'll need luck to ever win a slam. This was probably the best shot she'll ever have.

She will go back to the mothership to regroup. Gracchus' calling her an alien is hilariously apt, both in the way she looks and speaks. Maybe a Martian since she likes the red dirt?

Who gives a shit. She is a poor version of Sanchez Vicario just like how Radwanksa is a poor version of Hingis and Wozniacki is a poor version of Sabatini

Me too. I think she's pretty satisfied with her life overall, making
millions etc. Doesn't make for a great tennis champion though.

competitor.

Or coming from an impoverished background she's very happy earning
millions. Her driving force is most likely money & not glory.

The word on Halep has been she's a self-destructive perfectionist, who can even negatively disect a tournament winning run. She's said to be never satisfied, which through her developmental years was an over all plus. But as she began to win title after title she just got worse and more emotionally invested as well. Part of what Darren Cahill was trying to do was get her to 'just compete' and then 'live with the results', i.e. get a grip on that internal critic and ENJOY the fact she wins a LOT of tennis tournaments, so that she could more freely build up to her best tennis at the pressure filled majors. In a way, getting back to a final was a big step forward. The fact she lost to - as W rightly states - "a newbie", man, that's got to sting. How will she process that. Like being on court with a person who LITERALLY steps past you at/near the top of the line. All the work you did, the price you paid to gain excellence and performance proficiencies and WOOSH-BOOM (Batman theme of the week here on RST Adam West), a just turned 20 year old busts past you. OUCH!
