they must all be watching Na in the bronze, which is at the same time. so sad for dina and lena =(

was always going to happen though? why would the chinese want to watch two russians when there is a chinese girl playing next door.

doesn't change the fact that it's sad to have such a depressing turnout for the fucking final of the fifth biggest tournament of the year. seriously, i was at new haven last year with a shit draw and no-name players and the finals were still packed. it's sad and unfortunate scheduling.

it's sad :sad:

it's sad :sad:

It's not that sad. :shrug: I've been in plenty of empty courts.

Well when people bought tickets all those months ago they were hoping to see the likes of Henin, Sharapova, Ivanovic or the Williams Sisters playing so this is a bit or a dissapointing final after the tournaments line up was hit hard a was missing a lot of good players.

What else is there to do in New Haven before classes start?

Well, they're not missing much. The match sucks so far.

Na is getting TOOLED. Step it up and keep those errors down!

6-0!!!

:O :O :O Please get it together, or the Chinese government will eat you.

Has any of the matches been either a GS final, an Olympics Gold medal final or a MAJOR final? I'm guessing not :confused:

This is really a bloody shame.....nearly nobody is watching the GOLD-match and everybody else seems watching the Bronze-match. Who in gods name made this OOP.:o:mad: I feel very soory for Dinara and Elena. This is so unworthy.:fiery:

Li wins a game!!! Rejoice!

Not only LiNa's playing, YanZi&ZhengJie are also playing..

:(

The commentators said it's because the match was supposed to be on Saturday, but it's on Sunday, plus it is being played at 2pm instead of 4pm so no one has tickets for this match, plus a Chinese player is playing at the same time.

That's what they said anyway :shrug:

This really is awful for an Olympic Gold Medal match :sad:

On the plus side, Na is leading 3-1 :)

Oh well that makes more sense.
It seems there are logical explanations for it, quite the negativity. We'll be fine. If the Na match ends maybe people will filter in.

Stadium is full now

Sad for Na
