    I don't know anything about Bartoli, other than she was sympathetic to Sabine who played like a drain and when she lost in the final in 2007 she didn't break down in tears. She was 23 when she lost in that final, the same age as Sabine is now. Perhaps you can explain your remark as you obviously know more about her than I do.
