Hey, it's clay. She's forgiven. The grass is next. That's V time.

When did Nadia become an old veteran? Time sure does fly.

She has been to the Qfs at RG twice before - she won both matches.

This is also her 2nd straight Slam Qf following Australia in January.

Playing her 12th RG this is oddly enough only her 3rd Qf appearance.

She was runner-up to surprise winner Anastasia Myskina in 2004.

Elena is widely considered the best player to never win a Slam.
