And Pironkova gets her requisite 32nd seed at a Grand Slam.

Don't worry, we'll get a nice break after Wimbledon. I would be surprised to see her in the top 35 for another few years.

That BBC article brings up an interesting point. It mentions that clay is "widely considered" to be Kim's worst surface. I never really got that. She's been in 2 French finals, her movement really helps her out and it's not like she's a grass court lock or anything. I know she herself hasn't expressed a ton of love for the clay surface in recent years. Is that what they mean?

Grass is definitely her worst surface, but I understand them saying clay is because it's her least favorite. You can't expect to win on a surface when you keep acting like it stood you up for a second date.
