STOSUR!!

THIS!

Jankovic now in the semi's. Doesn't get a day off though, and after a long three setter (versus the horses quick straight setter) it might be tough. GOGOGOGO!

[pundies]

Gogogogogogogo Samantha!

Is Sam playing again tonight??

Would you believe I fell asleep mid-third set last night????!!!! DAMMIT!

Then woke up and realised that it was being shown again, so I estimated I could sleep till about 6.30 and pickup the action again, and slept in!! DOUBLE DAMMIT!!

I love that ninemsn called Stosur the "giant killer". She's World #7!!!!!!! It's not THAT big an upset.

she did beat 2 of the greatest ever players, and probably the two best (in an all time sense) players that are currently playing at the moment.

combined henin and williams have won 21 grand slams including 5 french (4 of them were henin)


i have to agree with the paper here. tbh its pretty easy to get to the top ten in the world, but a massive jump to the level of multiple grand slam winner.


good on her, apparently she is favourite for the title now even though she has to beat jankovic and possibly kuznetsova still in order to win . clay is definitely her best surface, if you see her serve and how much work she puts on it, you will agree, (its nearly a bloke serve in that sense)

i agree benny the cunt. henin had something like a 19 game winning streak at the french open before sam beat her. so she certainly is in form.

I'm not saying it wasn't a good win, but definitely not the upset of the year. Sam's isn't #7 for nothing.

this is true, but beating henin and serena in successive games just about is the upset of the year so far
