Stosur vs Sheik 2015

[PassIt2Carrots]

That might be because generally, Lleyton won the matches he was expected to and won matches he wasnt expected to and generally played to expectations.

Stosur on the hand has not, and once again, the expectation was that she would win this match and she didn't.

Yep it could be explained this year by her career being in the twilight, and her really dropping off, as happens to all players eventually, but this is not different for her which is what raises people's eybrows.

Perhaps choke is too strong a word, but largely, she loses games people don't expect her to.  Define it however you like, but thats just the way some people see it.

Leyton was exactly the same until we all realised he was no longer any good.
