It was such a tough loss to watch(on ESPN360). I was pulling for her but she just can't seem to get it together with all the not quite healed injuries and the loss in confidence that they have brought on. Maybe some of the announcers are right and she should take time enough off to get totally healed rather than not being able to prictice and only playing in tournments. She just can't get in proper form with no practice and in effect using tournments as practice. I personally think that breaking away from the Addidas team coaching and getting her own coach would really be a lot of help.

Anna Ivanovic run into very bad form this year and she had lost in first three rounds in major grand slams. Fitness or whatever her form is not good this year. Let us hope that she struck into top form next year in major grand slams. Yeah anna should hire her own coach instead of teaming up with Addidas team. let us hope best for her.. :)

yeah, it was heartbreaking to see her go in the first round of an important grandslam event. i have been rooting for ana since i saw her lay at the australian open last year. sshe was amazing then. but this time, due to injuries, she was not the same again. i think she needs more time to get herself primed and prepared for big tournaments such as grandslam. she is still competitive and i'd like to see her in her highest level of competitiveness in the next grandslam event.
