Aceman has got first and second round qualification results. Here are the most interesting ;) :

Nancy LC - 1st round bye
2nd round - Adriana Garuolis def. Nancy 6-0 6-0 ;)

Amy Dillingham - 1st round bye
2nd round - Yekaterina Kuznetsova def. Amy 6-0 6-0 ;)

1st round - Elena Blanina def. Dewonder Davis 6-0 6-0 ;)

Shivani Oberoi - 1st round w/o over Anna Savitskaia
2nd round - Marta Simic def. Shivani 6-1 6-0 ;)

Melody Snelen, Rhodes Proctor and Anna Pogosova were double-bagled as well, I should check their stats. ;)

And has anyone else noticed that Nancy, Amy and other bagel girls are often troubled by their good rankings ? They get a bye in first round, so they have to play someone in 2nd round who already has had a win and is just too good (not to mention that there's no chance that they will be drawn against each other).

For example Nancy: She had to play Garuolis who already had a double-bagel against Proctor in the first round. Maybe Nancy would have had a decent chance against Proctor.
Same for Amy: Kuznetsova beat Pogosova with a double-bagel, of course she's too good for Amy.

Only solution would be to play less, but that's the last thing we want them to do. ;)

i think it is just a matter of time, and then nancy´s ranking will go down, cause she earn zero points in this tournaments
and then she will not longer get a first round bye

I saw her in Vancouver ... poor girl ... she looks a bit like Marissa Irvin, except with absolutely no talent.

no. Kuznetsova is very wide spread last name (just like in English Smith if you translate it).

Svetlana doesn't have sisters (as far as I know)

Pity the bagel girls. They can only get a win over BYE.

And that probably takes three sets.

On a positive note, bagel girl Stefanie Hershfield won three games before losing.

She went done fighting.
