Wholesale Stitched Jerseys . Canada (6-2)
stole a point at the last end to secure an 8-6 win over the U.S., which now
cannot qualify. The Canadians didnt know they had qualified when they came off
the ice after a tense win over the U.SINGAPORE - Eugenie Bouchards brilliant
season on the WTA Tour came to an anticlimactic end.Bouchard was defeated 6-1,
6-1 by Serena Williams on Thursday, eliminating her from semifinal contention at
the season-ending WTA Finals.The native of Westmount, Que., struggled at the
prestigious tournament, failing to win a set in three straight losses against
Simona Halep, Ana Ivanovic and Williams.Still, the mere fact that Bouchard made
it to a tournament reserved for the top eight players in the world in her first
full season on the tour outweighs the disappointment of her tough finish in
Singapore.Yeah, its been fun, Bouchard said of her WTA Finals debut. Definitely
a unique experience compared to any other tournament, one I would love to come
back to in the future.Definitely disappointed with my play this whole week, but
I feel like I can do so much better. Thats a positive I can take out of it as
well.Despite the way it ended, this season was a resounding success for
Bouchard. The 20-year-old made a big splash at the Grand Slam level, advancing
to the Wimbledon final and the semifinals of the Australian Open and French
Open.She rose to No. 5 in the world, the highest position ever achieved by a
Canadian, and won her first WTA tournament in May in Nurnberg, Germany.Its been
crazy, hectic, intense. I dont know, those words come to mind, Bouchard said of
the last 10 months. Really enjoyable as well. No matter how tough its been, I
love playing tennis.Bouchard came into the tournament with only two tour matches
in a month due to injuries, and won only 11 games across her three matches.I
didnt have ideal preparation but that can happen to a number of players at any
given tournament, she said.Bouchard said she was impressed with the carnival
atmosphere of the WTA Finals, complete with pyrotechnics for the player
pre-match introductions.I tweeted that before I knew the entrance was so grand.
Then the first time I walked out I was like, This is actually like the Hunger
Games, she said. Yeah, just like were walking out, one person left standing,
walking out to our death maybe. It was intense.Bouchard said shell take some
time off to relax before next season starts early next year.Im going to go into
hibernation mode. Dont know when Ill wake up. Might be days; might be weeks, she
said.Ill keep you guys posted when I do wake up eventually. Going to eat some
cookie dough, hug my little brother. Thats all in my plans right now.Williams
rebounded from the worst beating of her professional career to rout Bouchard,
yet her title defence remains in the balance.Williams was humbled by Halep the
previous day, when the 18-time Grand Slam champion won only two games.Williams
will make the final four unless Ivanovic manages to beat Halep in straight sets
on Friday. Halep is guaranteed a semifinal berth.Meanwhile, the outcome of the
other group remains uncertain, with none of the four players qualified for the
semis, and none out of contention.
Wholesale Authentic Jerseys. Petra Kvitova
beat Maria Sharapova 6-3, 6-2, further eroding the Russian players hopes of
claiming the year-end No. 1 ranking.Sharapova, who needs to win the title and
rely on Williams not reaching the final if she is to bump the American from the
top spot, fell to a 0-2 record while Kvitova is 1-1.In order for Sharapova to
progress to the semis, she will need to win her last match against Agnieszka
Radwanska and rely on Caroline Wozniacki beating Kvitova, and have both matches
decided in straight sets.Williams credited her coach Patrick Mouratoglou with
lifting her out of the doldrums and preparing her for Thursdays match.I started
to believe that maybe I could come play another match, Williams said. I wasnt
quite sure that I could.I was feeling mighty low. I was able to feed off this
belief. I know that sounds weird, even though Ive won so many titles, I still at
some point feel like, Oh gosh, maybe I might not be able to do this or maybe I
might not be able to do that?Williams was fatalistic about whether she will make
the semifinals and remain in the running for a third straight title at the
season-ending championships.If I wanted to win and be a part of the event, I
should have won my match yesterday or should have done better, Williams said. If
I dont qualify, Ill be sad, but it wasnt my year. Im not going to fall out and
die.Sharapova, who lost the Wimbledon final to Kvitova in 2011, beat the Czech
left-hander in their past five meetings and started brightly by winning the
opening two games. But Kvitova took over from there, winning 11 of the next 12
games.Kvitova said she was feeling burnt out during her opening loss to
Radwanska, so took an unusual approach to freshen up for Thursday.When I lost
against Aga ... I was so tired and sick of the tennis for a moment, Kvitova
said. So I didnt practice today at all, and I just really relaxed and cleaned my
mind a little bit.Earlier, Wozniacki moved closer to a place in the semis by
beating Radwanska 7-5, 6-3 for her second win in the group stage.The first set,
which began with four service breaks in five games, lasted 67 minutes and
contained some lengthy rallies that were punctuated by superb
shot-making.Radwanska ended up the loser but played a couple of extraordinary
volley winners: One picked up at her shoelaces and lifted diagonally over the
net, and another leaping effort played with her back to the net.I just needed
some more good serves as well in that match, said Radwanska, who has a win and a
loss.Wozniacki was able to smile after Radwanskas trick shots.Im like, OK, you
know what, thats just too good, Wozniacki said. You can either get frustrated or
laugh — its better to laugh.
