This was the most lopsided women's final in Paris since 1988, when Steffi Graf defeated Natasha Zvereva, 6-0, 6-0. That rout lasted just 32 minutes, and this one would have lasted less than an hour, too, if Pierce had not taken so much time and so many deep breaths between serves.
"I'm sad because I lost, which is normal when you lose," Pierce said, when she was finally able to make her remarks to the crowd. "But I wanted to play a better match. I'm sorry. It didn't last very long."
-International Herald Tribune

Hmmm. That was harsh.

Fragments from an urbanscape

Jobless, living in a magical land of the unicorns in search for the green fairy, trying to remember huge amount of infomation twice a year, wish that 余文樂 will leave his girlfriend for me, quitted being a part in a drug-making syndicate but is in transition to become an even more oppressed petri-dish slave, want to see the aurora borealis, leo, doesn't like to eat muffins and loves travelling and honeystars.
