I've gotta believe that Maria wants to start her singles comeback in Rome because it would be a lot less pressure on her. No one has expected her to win big tournaments on clay in the best of times. I'm sure that she just wants to get some matches under her belt before the grass tournaments, where obviously she excels. I think that's the only reason that she'd start back on clay.

Still, I'm just not sure that she can ever be the same.
