 Andrew's Miami review - Tennisrulz.com Message Board
Brandi is a strong baseliner with a good backhand down the line, who took a set off Monica Seles at Wimbledon 1997.
However, Jelena's match-statistics were far from impressive, with 52 unforced errors, 10 double-faults, 54% of first serves in, and only 32% of points won when she had to use her second serve (68% on first serve).
On the positive side, she hit 36 winners (Brandi made 9 winners and 21 UEs), and won 8 of 12 points at the net.
