Good Luck

Regina Kulikova
Monique Adamczak

I don't know

The semifinal of Yanina is the third match on the same court where Yanina played her first match.

Okay, I think Yanina takes on the winner of the Marina (and Monique) match. Any chance you've heard in the past wee while who she versus in the semifinal. I don't care about the score or anything.

Yanina plays against Erakovic in the semifinal but I don't know the score of the match Erakovic vs. Adamczak. I'm sorry

:woohoo: Well done Marina

With a Semifinal here shes into the Olympics :rocker2:

P.S. Don't be sorry, it means I can go to bed now :lol:

any news about erakovic?
could be a great semi against wickmayer!

edit: nevermind, she won :D

for those wondering why the women got to play on grass yesterday but the men didn't:

"There wasn’t room for everyone at Surbiton so a decision was taken to play only the women’s matches on the grass while the men played at the National Tennis Centre. How was that decided? An official tournament statement spectacularly failed to answer the question - simply stating that only four courts were playable rather than the eight needed to accommodate both men and women. But further enquiries revealed that the decision was made by a simple toss of a coin."

I've read 4 reports about her match against Czink, and while there was a difference in how they saw the match they all said that Czink was in control of most points - but nerves got the better off her.

Yanina on the other hand seems to be on fire this week!

I hope Marina can win it, but I'm really unsure - mind you it doesnt matter all that much now, she needed to get into the semis to get into the Olympics and she did just that :rocker2::rocker2:

So heads and the girls play on court, tails and the boys play on court (no this isn't an anataomy lesson)?

Tammy:sad::sad:

Anne play yet?

Anne play yet?

she was first on at 11. Match will have finished but no news yet

Keep an eye on Yaninas official website, its probably the most up to date (if she beats Marina they'll say who the other semifinal is between and/or who won it)

Yanina lost to Erakovic 0-6 4-6 :sad:

that really is an awful result. yanina has so much more talent than erakovic. all erakovic would have done is just played crappy nothing backhand slices the whole time

backhand slices are lethal on grass

I was there yesterday, but my enghlish is too poor for writing some report:(
But she played really good and I think that she can win all tournament. There was something with Yanina (she was angry from the beginning of the game,but I don´t know why) ,she made lots of errors and Marina could be calm,because she could play smart

I will send some photos later.I have special one for Dorien and other belgium guys;)
