Hmm, as I suggested earlier, has had a seemingly rather worrying drop in level recently, certainly compared to her exploits earlier in the year.

And now this, allied to reports of serving problems in a recent match.

Clearly issues, and probably a question as to whether she should be playing.

Must be soooo frustrating for her.

Oh dear, very worrying again. Just when we thought she was starting to motor. Poor Ellie.

I suppose in someways it was inevitable that after such a long layoff with her knee problem, that other parts of her body ( currently her arm ) would let her down. Her body just not used to the rigours of playing alot of matches just yet. A rare talent which hopefully will be fully realised at some stage, we've just got to be patient, must be so frustrating to her after a near perfect comeback.
