Petrova's woes continue.. Better luck to Dementieva at least!

Surprised to see Nadia lose today, she had been easing through the draw here very comfortably so didin't expect this... :unsure:

Good to see Elena through though... :D

Nadia was apparently 5-1 up in the first set against Amanmuradova.... :wacko: :yikes:

Aman who? :blink: Mind you I have not heard fo loads of players - must be a big tournie ;) Crikey must be bad. I'm getting a feelign that ti is almost all over for Nadia.

She actually has been slowly climbing the rankings this year and I think she's just outside the top 50. She reached the semi-finals in one of the Asian tournies (Bangalore?)

yeah she might actually crack the top 50 with her run to the semis so far and who knows she might beat Elena tomorrow although I am hoping she won't... :pray:

I doubt she'll give Elena many problems.

She's started the year at 95th and is now ranked 59th - actually beat Szavay in Bangalore so she's taken two good scalps this year.

She actually reached the semis in Pattaya City, not Bangalore as I previously said.

So it's an Elena v Agi final... :ok:

Not bad for a tier III! :D

Great final :D

Elena's had a great clay-run this year and i hope it continues here.

Yeah it's been pretty good, dl... :D

A final run in Berlin and the final at least here! :)

I think tomorrow should be a good match but hoping Elena can win this one, her confidence will be sky high for RG if she can.... :ok:

Could this be Elena's chance for that elusive Slam... :pray: :shrug: :unsure:

Elena opens with a break and a hold. Cmon gorgeous, you can do it :yahoo:

Agi wins the first set 6-3... :(

Agi leads 6-3 4-1... :(

Elena gets thrashed 6-3 6-2... :( :ooops:

but well done Agi.... :clap:

sweet :clap:

great result for the youngster. and good on ElenaD, she only served 5 DFs :rolleyes:

plenty of positives then...:lol:
