Mamá coraje

Tenía el blog prácticamente olvidado, pero el retorno a lo grande de la enorme –y no por sus anchas caderas- Kim Clijsters me ha hecho recapacitar y volver a teclear sobre el tenis.

Jada vio desde la grada como su madre se coronaba en Nueva York, desde allí le dio fuerzas. Vio como la tenista belga regresaba a Flushing Meadows tras su retirada no para probar –como los retornos de Hingis o Davenport-, sino para ganar.

Kim Clijsters, ex número 1 del mundo, jugó un tenis brillante durante las dos semanas del torneo. Se fue deshaciendo de sus rivales con una facilidad fastuosa. Sólo la francesa Marion Bartoli y la número 3 del mundo, Venus Williams, fueron capaces de arrebatarle un set a la jugadora de Bilzen. Venció incluso a Serena Williams (6-4, 7-5), tras el lamentable incidente con las amenazas de la norteamericana a la jueza de línea.

Así, la final parecía decantada de antemano para Clijsters. Era la favorita por su recorrido hasta la final, por su trayectoria y, sobre todo, por su historia personal: la belga volvía después de estar dos años apartada de las pistas para ser madre de una niña rubia y preciosa.

No fue el partido más vistoso del US Open, puesto que tanto Clijsters como su rival, la sorprendente danesa Caroline Wozniacki, salieron a la pista atenazadas por los nervios, sabedoras de la responsabilidad que les suponía estar en la gran final de un torneo del Grand Slam.

Finalmente se cumplieron los pronósticos y Clijsters alzó el título en Nueva York (7-5 y 6-3) envuelta en lágrimas de alegría e ilusión, lágrimas de madre. Es la primera mamá que vence un Grand Slam en 29 años, desde que la australiana Goolagong se impusiera en Wimbledon 1980.

Clijsters suma su victoria 14 de forma consecutiva en Nueva York, alzó el título en 2005 y, desde entonces, no había vuelto a competir allí: el 2006 por lesión no pudo defender el trofeo, y en 2007 y 2008 ya se encontraba retirada.

Ahora, gracias a su segundo Grand Slam, se coloca como 19 del mundo y ya hay quien la incluye en las quinielas para estar entre las ocho mejores en el Masters de Doha. Parece demasiado prematuro todavía, puesto que quedan pocos torneos y la belga quiere descansar, disfrutar del trabajo cumplido y, sobre todo, disfrutar de su pasión desde hace año y medio: la maternidad.

  1. The organization gives a single [url=http://www.hotdeal.vn/]gia re hang ngay[/url] for each doing work working day in every single and every single of the marketplaces it serves. The Groupon works as an assurance offer utilizing ThePoint's platform: if a specified variety of folks signal up for the provide, then the deal gets to be presented to all if the predetermined minimum is not satisfied, no a single specific receives the supply that operating day.

That is, the retailer provides a massage valued at $80 and gets roughly $20 from Groupon for it (below a fifty%/fifty% break up). Or, if $240 properly worth of property portray firms is purchased by the customer for $fifty by way of Groupon, then the business gets $20 5 and Groupon retains $20 five. The customer will get the therapeutic therapeutic massage, or the house painting support, in these illustrations, from the retailer for which they to commence with paid $forty (or $fifty) to Groupon.

Hole, a massive clothes retailer, was prepared to manage 445,000 discount codes in a countrywide provide (though it seasoned server problems at a single certain position), but a smaller sized sized business could change into abruptly flooded with buyers. A solitary espresso store in Portland, Oregon struggled with an boost in shoppers for a number of months, when it marketed shut to one particular,000 Groupons on the 1 working day it was provided, according to one particular report.
