Qualy Semis

GEO Ekaterine Gorgodze def. JPN Rika Fujiwara 6-1 5-7 6-4
Good win from Ekat. Japan played very well though, their best match on clay yet but the Georgian was that little bit to strong.

NZL Sacha Jones def. SLO Maja Matevžič 7-6(5) 7-5
Close win from Last Weeks champion but she pulls through. She will play Ekat to see who gets that Main Draw place.

I can't enter anymore? :sobbing:

You could enter Seoul

You could enter Seoul

But I don't wanna play a tournie where I have only 50 points :p
I wasn't able to be online here from monday till today as my computer was crashed. :sad:

NZL Sacha Jones def. GEO Ekaterine Gorgodze 2-6 6-1 6-2
In terms of Points not much suprise but Sacha had to fight here to win this. She will go on to face world number 1 China and Georgia, who are nearly there when it comes to points, will wait until next time.

But I don't wanna play a tournie where I have only 50 points :p
I wasn't able to be online here from monday till today as my computer was crashed. :sad:

Had you played on clay last week i would have enterd you...sorry :sad:

1st round results in about an hour ;)

Had you played on clay last week i would have enterd you...sorry :sad:

1st round results in about an hour ;)

can I still send points, for maybe being a LL?
or is it impossible for me to be a LL?
Will lose very much places for missing this Tier 1 :sad:

I need your FMTL points ;)

Race to number 1:

If China lose in first round, Australia or China could be number 1 if:
Spain win the tournament
Australia get to the final

If China lose in the Quarters:
Spain cant be number 1
Australia have to win the final

If China win in the Quarters they will still be number 1

hopes this makes sense :wavey:

I hope Australia will win this tournament. :banana: :scared: ;)

I have all points so no LL for anyone
You would get at least some points in Seoul

1st round coming up hopefully someone will turn up :unsure:

[Q] NZL Sacha Jones def. [1] CHN Shuai Peng 6-7(2) 6-1 6-4

http://www.wtnphotos.com/data/3263/XRG105010721_1024x768.jpg

China are in real danger of losing their number 1 position now after a hard loss to last weeks champion. Clay is obviously not their favourtie surface but if they are to stay at the top spot they need to up their game. Great chance for Australia and Spain now as long as they get through.

RSA Amanda Coetzer def. [8] BEL Kim Clijsters 6-2 5-7 6-3

http://www.tribuneindia.com/2003/20030908/sp2.jpg

Its not looking good for the seeds. Kim is starting to play better but she didnt read her opponents game today. Amanda continues South Afircas good clay form.

[5] CZE Kveta Peschke def. UKR Julia Vakulenko 6-4 2-6 6-4

http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/5715/rg2007peschke001gg7.jpg

Good match from both here to and it was a good chance to bag important ranking points as well but Kveta was just the strongest eventually. Good match.

[3] ESP Anabel Medina Garrigues def. ROM Sorana Cirstea 7-6(5) 6-0

http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q301/bulmasalgueiro/Roland%20Garros%202007/recorte.jpg

Anabel has a chance of the number 1 now and looks determind to do it. Sorana played a great tactical match and is learning how to send points for different players and with a bit more experiance she will be rising up the rankings soon.

[4] GBR Jade Curtis def. BLR Victoria Azarenka 6-3 3-6 6-4

http://img382.imageshack.us/img382/9317/6795jadecurtis9tm.jpg

Britain score their first clay win and it was a good match from the youngster. Vikas gameplan was a bit too simple and it allowed Jade to sneak past. Nicely done.

[7] ITA Flavia Pennetta def. ARG Gisela Dulko 0-6 6-1 6-4

http://www.wtnphotos.com/data/634/capt_0d28cc5a29ef4d14ba752d3f376111fb_carson_tenni s_cajh121.jpg

Flavia is in a run of good form at the moment and it showed here. Gisela completly burned herself out after the first set and Flavia picked up the pieces.

RUS Nadia Petrova def. [6] FRA Amelie Mauresmo 1-6 6-0 6-4

http://www1.sport1.nl/images/thumbs/466x347/files/Uploads/1159457662.jpg

Russia are playing some great tennis at the moment and they could soon be top 10 players. Amelie choked away a healthy lead and Nadia fought back to take it.

[2] AUS Sophie Ferguson def. SRB Jelena Jankovic 0-6 6-1 6-1

http://www.abc.net.au/reslib/200501/r38883_97863.jpg

Odd Match here and Jelena needs new points if she is going to climb the rankings. However, Sophie looks hungry to get the number 1 spot for her country and she wasnt going to be stopped today.

Well Done Winners :bigclap::bigclap:

Losers :sad::hug:

Articles Please :awww:;) if you do Il do livescore :p

Also anyone can change points before tommorows QF :angel:

finally a win on clay :worship:

BTW Medina, get back to me on the PM i sent to you :p

Kim is playing better...hopefully, my god. South Africa's points are worse than mine, if I managed to win a set with 1 point.

i hardly imagine how i managed to win with points like that :o :help:

momo :tape: :smash:


i'll defenetly will stay with Nadia for all clay season :drool:

Japan almost won a match on clay :eek:

i couldnt use clay points from Amelia Island??

Kveta :hearts:

i hardly imagine how i managed to win with points like that :o :help:

Japan almost won a match on clay :eek:

best points you sent for clay :worship:;)

i couldnt use clay points from Amelia Island??

I dont have AI pts in my record :shrug:

Um patch, hi!, i dont really want to do that.. Um quick questoin.. Where are the seeds?, and what about Draw.. I can make that also :p. only with a few teams commiting. :)

Right then...it might happen in the future

You could go back to last weeks tournament to find teams if you like people posted their...for seeds you can either use the singles rankings or have none and do it by random ;)

Id Rather use single rankings :)

ill give everyone till tommorow To send me doubles points....

the draw WILL be out tommorow, the people who didnt send doubles points to me you know who you are.. ;)





and if i list your name, you know im dissapointed.. *cough* Australia *cough*

Spain Gets Charged $1000 US, for Match Tanking
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/takako_moriyama/phpXVBIeyAM.jpg
Above: Spanish Finest, Anabel Medina Garrigues Sits down after very humid Conditions.


Last week, people were wondering what was happening with miss Lourdes Dominguez Lino, loosing patheticaly7-6(6) 6-4 against Russias apprent "Clay Superstar" Mug Nadia Petrova. The Tour Director announced: "Spain has been charged $1000 Us, for thier tanking last week. They werent trying and gave the match away, its suspected that Russia Payed them But no-one can confirm that as of yet". The Spanish Team then Replies, "I would agree with you, they arent a good team, I think Coaches EDF and TW gave them to money to give to Russia".

In more positive news. Anabel Medina Garrigues won her match against Sonia Cristeria 7-6(5) 6-0. "They got loads of talent that team, maybe they need a bit more commitment, or they should look up to the big teams such as Spain, and Great Brittan, not mugs".

At least China won a a set!!!:woohoo: :p

Spain :o.Nadia was just better in the match.What an excuse!:ras: :rolleyes:
China is free from any scandals,as well as Australia.;)

Spain :ras::ras:

Nadia does it again! Nadia is having an unbelivable clay season and Australia just let the Russian walk over their gameplan. Australia will not be number 1 this week, as Nadia progresses.

Australia losing means:

Spain are defently number 2, but they have to WIN the tournament to be the number 1 ;)

If Spain dont win China will be the number 1 ;)

Australia are defently number 3 :sad::bigcry::hug:

:( Congrats to Russia! :yeah:

Another win on clay for GBR :speakles:

Russia up to at least number 11...i think they are top 10 if they win the tournament

Australia losing means:

Spain are defently number 2, but they have to WIN the tournament to be the number 1 ;)

If Spain dont win China will be the number 1 ;)

Australia are defently number 3 :p

Good win from Slovenia, it was a very close match. But Slovenia just had a little more firepower at the end, and should be happy with the win. Bad Luck Argentina.. Poor Cravero one of my favourite players :mad:

Amanda is in another final now at the Spaiards expense. China will stay number 1 but I am sure one day Spain will be number 1 again, as like both China and Australia, they deseve it. Anyway, the south africans have proven they a huge force on the circuit and will battle for thier first Tier I title tommorow.

I have ran out of good things to say about Russia. Nadia played, once again some amazing tennis and are in another final. Jade has had a great week and will be rewarded with a new carrer high but she wont get a place in the Berlin final, which is where Nadia is heading now.

Final tommorow...get some articles written :bounce::p:p

Petrova brings first victory for Russia

http://www.tennis.info/images/Berlin6/Petrova3358.jpg

Nadia Petrova fought back from 0-6 0-3 deficit to claim historical first win for Russia in Berlin. In final Petrova's victim was Amanda Coetzer of RSA, who showed some impressive tennis that week.

As the match started, it was clear that Amanda outplayed Nadia totally. Petrova just couldn't stand the fact that Amanda gave back all balls and the russian missed a ball at the end of every point. Amanda looked cool and confident amd was just doing her job. But at the middle of second set Coetzer called a doctor and pointed that something was wrong with her shoulder. After some excersisies and doctor consulting, Coetzer decided to play but she lost all her confidence and reliability in shots. Petrova caught her and overtook in second set as she won it 6-4. In final set the thing were even easier for Nadia - 6-3.

"It's great that I won this title for my country" said Petrova. "I don't care that Amanda wasn't at her best - the fact is that we're champiuons this week and others are losers. The clay season so far is very successful for us and we also want to finish it great on Roland Garros."

well im doing an assignement right niw so im gonna just post the score

South Africa d. Slovenia 6-0 6-7(1) 6-0

Congratulations South Africa
