Yeah but that's not my point.
She is playing Doha, then will have to fly to Memphis and then off to Bangalore. They aren't going to exactly short flights and they are back to back tournaments.
She'll be knackered... :wacko: :shrug:

Scotsguy - February 12, 2008 08:12 PM (GMT)
Yeah Vee is kinda sticking to Tier III's at the moment, no doubt praying Razzanno sticks to the higher events :lol:

Venus only played three Tier I's last year, winning none of them and she hasn't played one since August preferring to concentrate on Tier II, III and IV events... :yikes:

When you say 'what damage' do you mean that Maria's withdrawl wont damage the tournament or do you mean that she isn't really injured???

Duchess - March 26, 2008 03:33 PM (GMT)
(knows Scotsguy is a Sharapova fan)-Hope Maria takes care of herself. :ill:

Quel dommage is what a shame.

An injury is 'une blessure'.

If that was aimed at me (which I know it's not) it would be very true :D


Qui aimes-tu?

nevets - March 26, 2008 10:53 PM (GMT)
J'adore Jelena Jankovic, bien sur, parce-qu'elle est tres aimable, malgré le fait qu'elle joue trop souvent quelquefois!

J'aime Maria, aussi Elena Dementieva, Ana Ivanovic et egalement Momo.

En ce qui concerne les hommes, mes joueurs favorites sont Novak Djokovic, Fabrice Santora, J-W Tsonga et Baggy!

Jelena, elle est très sympa mais mes joueurs préférés sont Maria S, Anna Chakvetadze, Dementieva et Radwanska.

Pour les Hommes, j'aime Murray, Roddick, Ferrero, del Potro et Bolelli.

Vous aimez 'doubles' (have no idea what doubles is in french)

nevets - March 26, 2008 11:23 PM (GMT)
Je pense que 'doubles' est le meme en francais!

Oui, mais il n'y a pas beaucoup de chances pour regarder les doubles, malheureusement.

Scotsguy - March 26, 2008 11:28 PM (GMT)
Moi aussi, seulement pnedant les Grand Slams.
