For more news, you can go to the thread on her in the Asian Assault forum : Any Su-Wei info? (http://www.wtaworld.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=1443027#post1443027)

Jessica K :) :)

Melinda :sad:
Ally :sad: :(
Jo :(

Su-Wei didn't give up tennis, she just needs to work hard to come back to her good form, but still old incidents affecting her... she will play doubles in Grade 3 Taiwan junior tournament tomorrow as for practice...She will prabably come back to the tour in April to play Fed Cup if she is ready.

coolman...seems familiar ;)

Bad Jo :sad:

Well done to Zi & Tian-Tian. :D

Hopefully Shiho & Seiko can follow suit today. ;)

Jo :sad:

Go Jo, remember there's always a tournament next week...

JoMo,

Should you read this, if possible, please provide an update on Jessica Lenhoff. Until this tournament, she had not played a match since the U.S. Open final round qualifying. Just wondering if she was injured or perhaps finishing up her degree in the fall before giving the tour a shot. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hey Jo, could you please tell me how Cory Ann is playing as well as if her on court attitude has improved? Thanks!

Liga! :mad: fiery: :mad:

Jo :sad:

JO! :fiery:

:sad:


well done to Lilia

Don't cry for Jo! Look how well she battled back after what must have been a demoralizing first set. That is what I look for in a player, that fiighting spirit. Go Jo! :D

what's wrong with you Sonya, geez:mad:

Sonya :( hope the injury isn't too bad :(

Beier :D Diana :D great wins :)

well done Abigail, Shenay, and Michaela aswell :)

too bad for Gabriela, and Stanislava too :(

Way to go Beier and Diana! :D
Pretty bad loss by Sonya, Shenay's good but still..... :mad:

Go RIKA:hearts: :) & SHIHO:) !
I hope your team win the championship!!

Abby :)

Cory Ann :sad:
Sonya :(

Sonya:sad: but I'm not worried yet. You have to keep in mind she was off the tour for a year so it will take at least a year for her to get back to old form.

Cory Ann :sad: But still a great improvement in her results. To be honest, I wouldn't expect her to beat Ashley, as she has trouble with that style of play. I expected a 3 set loss, and that's what happened. Good effort by Cory Ann to qualify, and hopefully she takes that confidence in for her next tournaments.

Well done Shenay :) Keep up the great work! :D

Shenay won again today against Dabek...don't know score

Jessica Kirkland beat Abigail 6-2, 6-2 :eek:

Shocking loss by Abigail...

Alain has posted the R2 singles results.

It is available there : ITF, Columbus,OH,USA - Singles Draw (http://www.efekt.com.au/cgi-bin/draw.exe/tourshow?id=1319)

Yan Zi :D :eek:
Tian-Tian :sad:

Diana :D great win, I knew she might have a shot at it :)

well done Zi Michaela and Shenay aswell :)

too bad Abigail :(

Shenay!!! :)

Lilia lost :( don't know anything else, i decided to call the tournament and ask, that stinks!

Lilia...I wonder if she will ever find her form again :sad:

YAN IS ON FIRE........GO CHINESE.........:D

Yan's fire has been extinguished by Teryn :D

Teryn d. Yan 6-3, 6-1 :D
Shenay d. Kirkland 6-4, 6-3
Pastikova d. Osterloh 6-1, 6-1 :eek: :sad:
Fauth d. Srebovic 3-6, 6-3, 6-3

Lilia that is a shocking loss :sad:

Jessica :( :sad: still good tournament though :)
Zi :( :sad:

Ashley / Perry d. Alves / Dabek 61 61
Li / Sun d. Embry / Lehnhoff 75 61
Colosio / Cortez d. Hrozenska / Luzarova 75 64
Hiraki / Hisamatsu d. Yan / Zheng 61 62

Surprising that Zi loses on such scores in singles and mostly in doubles :confused: .

Shenay ;)

well done Shenay and Michaela :)

Diana :( good run though, not a bad loss :)

Zi :(

Wow, Shenay just keeps going! :):):):):)

Lilia :rolleyes: what the hell is happening to her tennis :confused:

Yan :(
Lilia :sad:

Does anyone know why Abigail & Teryn did not play doubles? Abi didnt play doubles at all.

YES!!!!!! Well done Shenay! :D This is her first SF I think :D

Good luck against Teryn!

Also doubles SF w/Teryn! :) Shenay is awesome in doubles! Dewonder Davis has had 1 win on the tour and it was a doubles match with Shenay! :)

I didn't know it was Shenay's first SF! Congrats to her. She has really stepped it up in recent weeks and that is good to see. I hope she will play in Allentown so I can see her.

Michaela - still indefeated this year ;) :D

Well done Evelyn as well

Michaela won today...she is her second straight final

Teryn and Shenay are in a third set TB as I type. Will call back in a few minutes.

I think Shenay is going to be such a solid player in the years to come. She has a GREAT serve and is a very good athlete.

I hope by the time this post goes through, Shenay will have won through to the final! :D

Shenay lost :sad:

Teryn d. Shenay 3-6, 6-2, 7-6(4)

Still a great tournament for Shenay. I saw her play last year at the Open and she does have a nice serve and great volleys. I thought her major weakness was her lack of aggression on her ground strokes. She needs to get a lil more power and learn to flatten out her forehand to finish off short balls.

Teryn is trying to win her first $25K

Ironically...Pastikova defeated Teryn in this same tournament last year in the first round 6-4, 6-2!

Too bad, Shenay :(

I don't really care who wins the final, so I hope they have a good match :)

Shenay:sad:

GO TERYN:bounce:

thanks for the scores :)

Michaela - keep up the great results
She also has a lot of talent, and is surprising she is ranked so low.

Evelyn - nice try :sad:

so close shenay :(


shenay and teryn usually don't play doubles - shenay and bethanie mattek do, so i'm sure it didn't bother her.


well done a great week anyways! :)

Ting Li / Tian Tian Sun def. 1- Teryn Ashley / Shenay Perry 4-6 6-3 6-2

Teryn / Shenay:sad:

Bruna / Joana:)

this is her first loss in doubles in a few months!

Pastikova d. Ashley 3-6, 7-5, 7-5

:D for Pastikova but :sad: for Teryn

Her third $25K final and still no win :sad:

Ah, darn. :(

Congrats to Pastikova, though!

so close for teryn! :(

TERYN:sad::sad::sad:

Michaela remains undefeated this year. :D

Well done - she is finally regained her form again.
