'No fear' huge element in Oudin's U
women's tennis player not named Williams with the biggest upset of the tournament,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The 17-year-old native of Marietta, Ga., stunned No. 4 Elena Dementieva 5-7, 6-4, 6-3, never abandoning her aggressive play despite an unpleasant thigh injury that required medical attention and almost took her to tears within the final set.
"I used no fear today,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Oudin (pronounced "oo-DAN"), who next faces three-time major champion Maria Sharapova.
Oudin, a former junior standout who has been home-schooled since seventh grade (unlike her twin sister, who's in high school), finds herself in the third round of the second consecutive major an improbable position just a few months ago.
At Wimbledon,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Oudin advanced to the fourth round,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], beating No. Open," said 70th-ranked Oudin, who's the third-highest-ranked American behind Serena and Venus Williams.
By today's standards, Oudin is small , lacking in obvious firepower. But the 5-6 player has lots of self-belief. "Believe" being stamped on her shoes for Thursday's match.
"That's the good thing about her,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said her longtime coach,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Brian de Villiers, who said Oudin's best skill is her innate confidence.
Despite the cavernous surroundings at Ashe Stadium, Oudin stood her ground and,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], more important,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], wasn't fazed.
"During the match, I had confidence and,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I am talking about, I had been right there with her the entire time," Oudin said. "She wasn't blowing me off the court. She wasn't hitting winners right and left on me. We had long points. I had been immediately with her. Tennis Association's elite development program.
But her biggest asset may be her heart. She likes to fight and compete,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
