You can't win every match you play and sometimes you prefer different surfaces. Sometimes you are injured, sometimes you find the Australian support from the media and the suburbs a bit over the top.
She is a great girl who is a total professional in this sport. She don't walk out on court just to give you a bad day...
I just quoted the article, and highlighted that she seems to have a Travis Cloke kicking for goal like approach to the Australian Open.
She is a great girl and a total proffesional, who seems to have real difficulty at the Aussie open and for me it appears to be above the shoulders rather than in her ability to play because she has shown us better than what she consistently gives us at the Aussie open.
Maybe its her preparation, maybe its her coaching, maybe its simply the way she returns to competition and doesnt quite get the cobwebs out of the way until the main event and doesnt perform accordingly, but the reality is that she is better than what she gives us at the Aussie open, and I don't see why you have taken such exception to the post, when odds are Sam would herself tell you that the arguments have merit if she were to review these comments.
Odds are she knows fully well about it, else she wouldnt have played so nervously too.
