Yeah but only in the usual Amélie style - big lead and blow it... not this potential humiliation. Just hope she realised what it meant and that provides "le déclic " that Loic was talking about.......

She got the usual 1st match jitters but yeah more at stake on this one really...
Let's hope that if and when she survives this one, it'll trigger something within
and get her back in form...

Yep...... that's 2-0. Now NO going into "second set" mode after that bagel - remember it's the third....

by JOIE Mon Jan 14, 2008 9:19 am

A break would make us breathe a little easier Amelie.

Yep, a break and a hold and a break and a hold - imo only 2 bagels will make up for that first set. This child is NINETY-SIXTH in the world......

by JOIE Mon Jan 14, 2008 9:21 am
