Can Julia Goerges win the Australian Open 2012? – Tennis Special
Queen of Dutch beauty on the field of tennis, Julia Gorges, is one of the most breathtaking tennis characters these days. Ranked 23 in the world at the moment, she possesses the traits to break into Top-20 players in 2012. Germany is able to produce
such talent which always cruises into the top world ranks and stays there for quite a while; likes of Steffi Graf and Anke Huber are the two examples from the last decade and recently Andrea Petkovic and Sabine Lisicki are flying their nation’s flag high with
some eye-startling performances.
Goerges is the upcoming tennis star from Germany who will flabbergast everyone with her outstanding capability to absorb the pressure with ease. She broke into the Top-20 players in June 2011 and climbed as high as world number 16 but then dropped
multiple ranks due to her dismal performance and injury prone physique; ended the year as number 23. She will once again rise in 2012 considering her calibre and temperament to understand the need of the situation. Only problem is her routine to catch injuries
regularly and staying out of action that declines her ranking significantly.
With the first Grand Slam tournament of the year, the Australian Open, right around the corner everyone is limbering up in the season openers to make sure they enter Melbourne in good form. Georges also kicked-off her New Year campaign in Auckland
and staged to the second round where she lost to her compatriot, Angelique Kerber. The eye-catching performances from her came in the doubles category where she teamed up with Italian Flavia Pennetta to reach the final of the season opener. They German-Italian
duo failed to clinch the title but most importantly, it was an impressive start to the season for the underrated Goerges.
The most terrifying news for Goerges’ fans came on Monday when she retired from the first round match in Sydney due to viral illness. She is expected to make a return in the Australian Open but it is not confirmed yet, as she has just a week to revive
her health. She is definitely going to be one of the most terrifying rivals for her competitors in the Australian Open; only if she recovers completely and explores her sublime form.
She has already won two titles in her professional career but that doesn’t reflect her non-stop improvement in the ranking since her professional debut in 2005. She eyes the first Grand Slam of her career and will definitely test everyone above her
ranks.
Beauty coupled with talent always bring a lot of fan following and there is no doubt that her favourite playing arena will give her extraordinary support during the Australian Open. She just needs to stay focused on her mission and nail down her opponents
one by one in order to win million other hearts that still are unaware of her charming character. Fan of Martina Hingis and Roger Federer, will definitely follow their footsteps and rise later in her career to the world number one spot for sure. A player that
can defeat world number one couple of occasions can always come up with surprising results; Goerges has done that to Caroline Wozniacki and therefore she can definitely pull up the miracle of acquiring the first Grand Slam title of the year.
The aggression, technique, skill, beauty and temperament is there; if luck plays its part for the German tennis ace, she will definitely nail her rivals and grab the Australian Open Grand Slam title this year.
