The following excerpt is from Clijster's online diary. Food for thought before backing her at the ridiculously low $1.65-ish opening prices. I'm waiting for at least $1.76 before posting the bet (and that's marginal value in my opinion).


"I got up about an hour ago. It is still very moisty around here and one sweats the whole day through, even while doing nothing. I am starting to feel exhausted because of the succession of matches and my wrist is a bit stiff as well.

Playing eleven matches in a row in three weeks is tiring if you haven't been able to play for about a year. In the second set against Myskina I really hit a low, any third set would have been too much. Luckily, I now had a day's rest, but still I feel that my wrist needs more rest and that I should be having a checkup at the hospital again.

Right, I'm going to get ready for another half an hour of practice and testing my wrist. The WTA doctor advised me not to take any risks, so we'll see. After that, I still have some time left, as my match is only at 2am Belgian time.

Keep your thumbs up and see you soon.
