thanks Randy ... Zuzana's done well in the challenger tournaments, and i can't wait to see her in NY this year :)

I think Rossana De Los Rios too.

she just withdrew from allentown, so it seems like she's injured, but i wouldn't be surprised if she retires at the end of the year

Elena Tatarkova was not a challenger player! She was a STAR! A STAR I TELL YOU! :fiery: A STAR!

she just withdrew from allentown, so it seems like she's injured, but i wouldn't be surprised if she retires at the end of the year

She's withdrawn from at least 10 tournaments this year, i think she's retired.
