I said I'd report on this after I reviewed the tape, so here goes: ESPN2 coverage of Sorana's win over JJ took up late in the second set, and you got witches Fernandez & Carrilo telling us all about how that could be happening. Whatever would we do without Yankee "interpretation"? 
Their story went that Cirstea's coach had dumped her right after Madrid--didn't like her "attitude". True that Cirstea gets visibly fussy on court but, from my observation on streams, it may also have been that Sorana didn't care for the woman's hands on her so much...
Whatever. The witches told us that Team Adidas, in the persons of their commentary colleague Darren Cahill & Sven Groeneveld "swept in" and turned Sorana's career around in a week. lol!
I think not. Fernandez & Carrilo couldn't resist some name-dropping as the camera panned over to the Romanian box. In the tribune to boost Cirstea were:
1) Ion Ţiriac, former player & multinationalist (richest man in Romania) who owns among many other things, El Mutua Madrileña Madrid Open.
2) Ilie Năstase, former Romanian player, seven-slam winner, one of the world's top players of the 1970s.
3) 1978 Roland Garros champion Virginia Ruzici. Her former doubles partner...
4) Mima Jaušovec, 1977 FO champion who Ruzici defeated in '78 was also supposed to be there watching. (Prominent Slovenian political figure & head coach of Slovenia's national women's tennis team.
Does this clutch of supporters sound as if they have great need of Team Adidas part-time coaches? S'pose WTA would approve of Ţiriac's personnel in the girl's entourage? L-O-F'n-L!!!
I'd say Sorana has got all the backup she's gonna need. Now it's up to her. More anon.
