No Germans in the draw at all... how sad. I wonder what happened to Anca?! I know Marlene has a stress fracture but not sure when she'll be back. I am going to the event on Friday - hopefully I will become a fan of some of these other players. None of my faves are even entered!

the draw shows Koukalova vs. Q
I wish it was Anca too... this was a great chance for her to finally jump up in the rankings... and she's been playing really well the past few weeks, beating two top 20 players and only losing to Kuznetsova twice in a row!

She cant play too many events more than $10k prizemoney (no more than the 7 she is allowed) so Miami will be it.

Nicole is not allowed to play any more WTA events until her 15th birthday since she already played a WTA event last week. Based on AER rules, 14 years old is allowed to play one WTA event based on a feed-up spot OR wildcard

Sharky she can play another event, but that will reduce her tourn level by one, but thats not a problem for her as she no longer will play 10k's.
She will be in Miami.

OK well Samantha's draw sucks! I love Viktoria to death but right now Samantha really needs a win. She should beat Vika as well. Can anyone help me with figuring out how far Sammy is going to fall after this tournament? She has qualifying and 3rd points to defend so it should be close to out of the top 95.

Good luck to:

Vika (would love to see her play against Justine :D )
Nastya (hope to see her against Sharapova again)
Flavia
Masha K
Dani (great memories here, you can still do it, just be confident)
Jelena
Karolina (hope to see her against Lindsay)
Vera :bounce: (you can do even better than last year, no mental breakdown please ;) )
Kim (would be surprised not to see her defend her title tbh)
2. and maybe Daniela vs Jelena in r3 :smash: :fiery: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
If that happens i'm going to nearest sports shop and buying the most expensive requet there is. They both hopefuly gonna finish in round 2 so we wont see those tortures on the courts. I really hope that Sesil gonna kick some ass to Alex. All three of them Dani, Jelly and Alex just suck
i was fan to Dani and Jelly but no more-thankfully

GOOD DRAW FOR HANTUCHOVA AND DOKIC!!!
Hantuchova and Dokic both recieve byes in round 1, in the second round Hantuchova will either play a qualifier or 367th ranked American Jamea Jackson. Dokic's draw is slightly tougher with either Russian Tatiana Panova, whom despite a ranking of 1061 is definately a threat to the top players or Garcia, the Spanish veteran at 30 years of age whom has had her most success on clay. If they get through their fist matches (which i believe they will) they will be playing off for a fourth round appearance which will definately help the struggling girls to find their confidence which has gone astray in recent times! Hopefully both girls can find that confidence and reach that level of game we know they can achieve!
