Jankovic Seeks Knee Treatment

This past Wimbledon 2008 week has been a real shock to Tennis Fans all over the world, but not Jelenajankovic .

“They swing freely and most of those balls go in, so when you’re not at your level you have a lot of trouble. So it’s very tough to get out of that and they couldn’t somehow.”

“I was really not happy with the way I was playing, especially the first set. I made so many unforced errors,” she said.

“But it’s also very important to somehow find a way to win when you’re not doing it your best. Read the rest of this entry »
