I love Dani but got to say there's no hope in hell for her beating anyone top 20 anymore, unless they have a seriously bad day. Also against the likes of up and coming girls ie Ula, Robbo, Hev, she stands no chance. Maybe she can win the dodgy Thai title again as her swansong? I do not feel Indian Wells coming on...

Surely Dani doesn't have anywhere near the consistency required for another season near the top? It's some top 50 hovering from now on in....

She is a fighter though, I'll give her that.

Dani needs to get her act together FINALLY to be honest. If she can have another 2003/2007 before she retires I will be so proud. But I won't hold my breath. The final set is how she should be playing against these smaller players all the time. She can beat the big players, if only she wasn't such a flake! x
