Yeah Jodie was demolishing the second serve, but for me it was good she was playing sensible shots - not going for silly things and then getting flustered when they didn't happen.
Ball was absolutely flying through the court. Hopefully she can keep her game controlled and do well this week, conditions open up the potential for her to do a lot of damage. Although Monnet is a much trickier opponent than today's.

Totally agree conditions help her game if she can keep controlled. Lets hope she can!!

south Africa tends to be quick at Joburg, altitude and thin air.

Never been much of a fan of Carole's tennis. And I've known her since the age of 8 or so.
I know she's quite young (20) and is therefore on the up. But she plays a huge number of tournaments and has got where she is more by graft than talent (not to knock graft, but....). She certainly has the game to annoy Jodie but that's not really saying much
Interestingly, I think she was born in Ukraine, and adopted by French parents as a toddler.
Anyway, I wish her well - she's a very nicer person. And a decent player. But fully priced, I reckon, in terms of ranking at the moment. Go, Jodie
