li na won 2 matches today. gonna play venus in semifinals. Laughing


Well, her Round 3 match with Johanna Larson of Sweden was washed away by bad weather the day before. So she had to play back-to-back to make it up.

Luckily she showed excellent form in both matches. She brushed aside Johanna Larson 6 ~ 2, 6 ~ 2 and then she thrashed the tournament's Top Seeded Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland 6 ~ 1, 6 ~ 1.

Since Samantha Stosur was upset by Venus Williams,
therefore the chance for making another final appearance is high if Li Na could beat over-her-prime Venus Williams in the semi-final.

Just hope the 2 matches in a day had not exhaust Li Na.

if she cant beat venus, should just retire. venus is old and wont recover 100% cuz of her disease.

forcing retirement is a bit extreme. She can fire a few more coaches before that happens.

Li Na probably intentionally tanked in the Olympics just to get ready for Rogers cup and now this tournament.

LOL, well played. I knew you had potential (very little, but it's there)

YEAH..... SuperJean will say something like Li Na is lenient and kind and intentionally showed mercy to those old and injured opponents. Razz

Anyway, She should have disposed Venus easier in set 1. 7 ~ 5 TOO CLOSE.

And the new coach Carlos Rodriguez, during the intermission, asked her to relax, and told her to play more focus on her serve, and when he left, he said to Li Na: Come On, Baby !!! Shocked Razz Very Happy Laughing
