So far so good...

September 3, 2006

Well, time for an update. It has been a great summer - one tournament, one win (montreal 2 weeks ago). And now it is my last week playing, period.

So far so good, 2 doubles wins, 1 mixed and feeling better and better as the tournament goes on. Knee is not even an issue at all, thanks to some rehab and great work by Richard Sutton, an awesome physio from S.Africa. I wish I had him 20 years ago. Or at least 15...but better late than never. Had a great mixed with Bob against his brother Mike and Corina Morariu. Mixed doubles is always a matter of a couple of points here and there and it is especially true here with that ridiculous super tie-break instead of a proper 3rd set. We dominated play and enough break points to have won 2 and 2 and we also could have lost in 2 sets. But thanks to some great play by Bob, we got through, 10-4 in the breaker.
So now it is the last few matches. I just need to keep my feet on the ground as I am so excited to be playing here and excited about my life after this. So stay tuned, I feel some great tennis coming up. And I will hit a 110mph serve - at least once - I did a 108, so it is in the grasp...as you know I am all about setting goals - and here I want to hit a 110+mph serve AND win a title!!!!
