Just a quick note to say what a great achievement from Laura Robson to make her first ever WTA semi-final this week on the clay in Palermo. She defeated the world number 27, Roberta Vinci in the second round and backed that up with a tough win over Carla Suarez Navarro, 6-4 2-6 6-3. She now takes on Barbara Zahlavova Strycova in the semi-finals, which is a hugely winnable match! It is great to see her winning against some extremely competent clay courters and that she has been able to close out these matches as I have questioned the mental side to her game... hopefully Laura can keep winning :-)

My predictions this week have been a mixed bunch, but there has been at least once success story... I managed to correctly predict all four semi-finalists in Stuttgart! The rest of the tournaments I won't mention ;-)
Well,you did get the prediction for the ATP Umag final,not bad. Would like to know who you pick to win the ATP Newport final between Isner and Hewitt? Cheers man.
ReplyDeleteCheers for the comment!
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit late as it has just started, but I would go Isner in 3 sets.
