The full write up on a remarkable day for Chinese and Asian tennis, as well as world tennis in general.
1) Show Schiavone that you will not be bothered by the short ball today.
2)Hit the ball in the middle of the court for a majority of times, and close when you get an opening. Don't rush
3) Close this time. You were up a set against Clijsters, and it's important for you to finish the job if you get the chance today.
For Schiavone:
1) Stay steady on the forehand, and continue to be you.
2)Show that you are the champion, and survive the power of the China woman.
Prediction: Schiavone in 3 dramatic sets that we'll remember forever.

1st set analysis and tactics:
72% first serve, that says it all about Na Li's serving and her stroking off her confident first swing. 17 winners, just 10 errors, while 3 winners and 4 errors for Na.
