It's uncanny how she's able to, with that very non-textbook shooting form, knock down flat trajectory long range shots under pressure with minuscule space time after time, almost as if by sheer force of will.

Weisner's shooting form was so pure by comparison I was never surprised when any of her shots found the bottom of the net.

I'm so glad nobody's ever tried to change Syd's shot, don't argue with success, right?

Her form is a lot better than Kat Tudor's. Take a look at a still shot of her shooting. She has both elbows out. Osahor does the same thing but from lower on her body. How they can shoot like that is totally amazing to me! Of course you don't want to mess with a good thing... just enjoy it and the beautifully arced shots dropping through the net.

I hope neither player reads this stuff. It like asking Tom Watson to read a bunch of ideas on how to hit a 4 foot uphill chip shot to win the 2009 British Open, at age 59, but since he didn't, I assume he screwed that up all by himself.
