Correct me if I'm wrong, but Gisella is still unbeaten in ITF tournaments this year, isn't she?

Yes, I believe thats correct.... I know she won two Challengers earlier in the year... I will have to ask her.

Yeap, and she also won 2 $10K events, Miami and Boca Raton, as far as I can remember.

Yes, well 10k challengers don't attract the the better players, usually only the players that live or train in the area, like Gisela... this 25k is a different caliber, but she should do just fine! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

I know the following:

Valdes lost in qualifying round 6-1,7-6(5)
but enter in the main draw as a lucky loser vs wildcard Zlenkusen. And Jessica won 6-4,7-5 vs Almeda-Singian and will face qualifier.

Thanks for the info on Melinda Czink, Eggy. I've been wondering who she is, seeing her great results recently! Do you know anything else about her?

Too bad Jackie lost! <IMG SRC="smilies/sad.gif" border="0"> But in doubles, she is playing with Czink! So I hope they can win the title. Go Jackie/Melinda! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

(Ptkten: I am a huge Sixers fan too; I live right outside of Philly. Can't wait to see how the new guys will perform! I'm already impressed with Harpring and Claxtion.)

Keep going Fabiola and Catalina.

What is the CP standing for beside Melinda's name? I'm sure it's obvious but my tired brain can't think of it.
A Castano-Zuluaga final would be interesting as Catalina has taken her chance to be Colombian #1 while Fabiola has been off. I think if she lost to Zuluaga her self esteem would suffer but good luck to both.

well done Catalina, Melinda, and Gisela <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

MirjanaLFan ..... the CP next to Melinda Czink's name is Circuit Points.

she got into here as she's done well over the last 2 weeks and gained some points on the USTA circuit.

Thank you TBE.
I hope Catalina Castano wins the final as in Fabiola's injured abscence she's managed to establish herself as Colombian #1 and as a player on the tour so I think it would be demoralizing for her self-confidence to lose to Fabiola in her first tourny back.

question: what had happened to fabiola? glad shes back, but what was up? good luck in the final <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

not glad she beat jidkova! <IMG SRC="smilies/firey.gif" border="0">

MMmpphh...too bad for Gisela, but one of them had to lose. Well done Fabiola and Catalina, and may the best Colombian win.

Good luck to Erika/Vanessa!!! You can do it!!

Darn, Melinda Czink lost in the semis. <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

FINAL

Fabiola Zuluaga (COL) d. 1-Catalina Castano (COL) 6-3 3-6 4-3 ret

How Ironic that Fabiola should make her comeback and play in the final against Catalina and win with a retirement.

It was she who had to retire in the 50K Cali final last December ( her last event before this)

so bad luck Catalina , hopefully she isn't as badly injured.

Ironic indeed <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">

Shame Catalina lost like that, glad she made the finals at least <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

congratulations Fabi

Well done Fabiola, I hope Catalina isn't badly injured.

Doubles final:

Jidkova/Steck def. E. Krauth/V. Krauth 4/6 6/2 6/3.

Too bad, girls, but at least you reached the final.
