Yeah I think they just found that info out. Or maybe she told them for all I know. That's why I put the word apparently because I rarely trust what players say the day of a match and then what's repeated ad nausea. The quote was her telling the doctor her throat was sore and then him offering her a lozenge. I heard her say that on the bet365 feed and I burst out laughing. To be fair even the commentators did too because they were like what's he going to do for a sore throat? Are you going to suck a lolly while running around on court?
Greg - She's horrible. I've been on a witchhunt for her since she lost to Cetkovska. Normally I don't pay her much attention but when I saw the press hype her up yet again after that win when I watched every point of that match I was pissed. Not sure if you saw at TI but someone explained they were cheering for her because Bartoli had wanted to stop the match when it was just drizzling and when the ump said no and told her to keep playing she refused. Can't say I blame her considering what's happened this tourney with injuries and slips. She's still batshit insane though.
