Day Two Wrap:
Temper, Temper: Wozniacki def Azarenka
We were one point away from calling the upset. If only she had held on to her psyche for on more point. Credit Wozniacki for hanging tough, weathering the storm just long enough for Azarenka to blow herself out with erratic errors. This is what she does best and today was no exception.
The tennis gods get in their last laugh: Safina taps out against Jankovic TKO
Safina just can't seem to catch a break. Back injury is the final straw piled onto the "moments to forget" camel. A bad back will set her back 6 weeks which puts her Ozzy Open in serious jeopardy. On the bright side, at least she won't have to defend her #1 ranking in the presser.
Round 22 meeting goes to Serena
It was a close one but Serena prevailed. Venus' loss today puts her 0-2 in the group. She'll need nothing short of a miracle to advance.
Day Three:
Vera Zvonareva vs. Caroline Wozniacki
Zvonareva made the trek out to Doha and now she get's to play. Not sure where her head is so we'll take Wozniacki.
Serena Williams vs. Elena Dementieva
Wimbledon Rematch promises to be a good one. Serena doesn't need this match to advance so how much energy is she going to spend? We'll take Dementieva.
Svetlana Kuznetsova vs. Venus Williams
The winless duo in the maroon group go head to head. Venus is pretty much done but we'll pick V to at least win once match in Doha.
