Hello!
Today was a pretty boring day, really not much to say!
I was scheduled to play fourth match on, but since it started to rain at 12pm almost non-stop until 3pm, all the matches were moved. I only had a chance to hit on pretty wet grass in the morning, then some cool down, then lunch, where you could barely find a table to sit down (it was full of people!) Then it was back to the flat, waiting for my match - I then found out I was third after 3pm, so there was a little bit of a chance to play.
So I watched Venus Williams and Date-Krumm, what a great match! I loved it, I really wanted to see more and more of it! Both great players! And I think Kimiko has a good game for grass as well!
Afterwards I came back to the courts, hit again and focused for my match, but the match before me - Lopez and Schuettler - were just finishing the first set at 6pm, so my match got cancelled. I was ready for every decision, but to be cancelled I didn't mind at all! I just keep positive. I have another day tomorrow.
Anyway I stopped by the IMG house to say hello to everyone and to enjoy the barbecue. I met some really cool people! I didn't stay too long, but I had a very good time and just to be able to switch off a bit was nice as well.
And it's time for me to rest. It was a tough day waiting and waiting for the match. I have a new day tomorrow. I'm playing singles first on at 12, and doubles finally fifth match against Stosur/Lisicki, ugh gonna be interesting!
Bye!
