“The
start of 2011 was really good. But after that I made some decisions I
no longer would make now.
After a physically and psychologically very
strenuous Australian Open, the indoor tournament in Paris was the one
event too much. Now, I'll be listening to my body much better,”
commented Clijsters on her injuries in 2011.
The
Belgian starts of her 2012 campaign at the Brisbane International
before moving to defend her title at the Australian Open.
When asked
about her targets for 2012 Clijsters added, “I will take things one
tournament at a time, but above all I would like to improve my game. I
have been working really hard at my service, because that often did not
go well in the past year.”
Clijsters also showed
a certain level of uncertainty when asked about her Fed Cup and Olympic
aspirations.
“I have spoken to team captain Ann Devries, but I have not
decided anything yet. The year will be very busy already with the
sequence of Wimbledon and the Olympics. I'll see how things are after
the Australian Open. Should I do as well as last year it might all be a
bit much, but should things go not too well Down Under the Fed Cup might
be an appropriate challenge.”
It seems like we
will see a new and improved Clijsters in 2012 and lets hope she
bedazzles us with her scintillating tennis that we are used to!.
