Jelena Dokic continued her inspiring return to form in Melbourne today.
The former World No.4, who opened up recently about her struggles, shocked Anna Chakvetadze 6-4, 6-7 (4), 6-3 in the Aussie Open second round. She'll most likely have a tough go-of-it when she faces rising Dane Caroline Wozniacki for a spot in the Round of 16.
It's great to see JD playing good ball again but something tells me the ride is about to end. However, this performance should bode well for the rest of her season and give JD confidence about her abilities on the court.
But it's all up to her.
