| Rome: Jankovic crushes Dementieva |
Yesterday, Elena Dementieva was competing at her first quarterfinal appearance since coming back from a 2-month injury layoff. Her opponent was Jelena Jankovic. Yesterday's match, I think, is a good measure where Elena stands right now before heading to Roland Garros.
Unfortunately, it's not a very good news for us fans as Jelena Jankovic cruised by her 6-2 6-1. I can't believa how easy the matc was for Jankovic. But I hope that this will awaken Elena and go to the practice courts to get better. That serve should really be fixed and she shouldn't just stay in the baseline all match long.
She's scheduled to play Istanbul next week but I hope she pulls out from there. She's been playing 3 straight weeks and I want her as fresh as she can be heading to Roland Garros.
Davai Elena! |

I saw the QF between Elena and Jelena. I think Elena did not get outplayed, she just sprayed the ball all over the place and beat herself. There were a couple of games that had as many as 7 deuces. So I think mentally, she is as tenacious as ever. She hits the ball with no top-spin so her margin for error is almost non-existant and her timing still looks off.
I think it is great Elena is playing in Turkey. She needs as many matches as she can get to get her rhythm back. Sadly, I do not think she will do well at Roland Garros this year.
