Yep :p
You only have to change when there's a surface switch ;)
CAN ALL DOUBLES TEAMS SEND NEW POINTS FOR GRASS COURT... IF NOT I WILL HAVE TO SEND PM'S IF NOT W/O
ASAP!
Last week, a strong Tammy and LDL, came out and said that they were also comfortable on this surface, taking big names out, ANd the number 2 seeds in the final Harkleroad/Chakvetadze. Will they be able to do it again. Stay tuned!

I need points from:
Bartoli/Dementieva
Sprem/Capriati
Dechy/Rezai
Good Game for the debutants. but they came against a very strong team, who are dangerous. Considering you had 0 Aces it was rather complicated for you :p U put a good fight. Jankovic/Pennetta just knew where to put there points

...;11373905']This Is Stupid Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!
Still the two biggest grass events to come, you can still do well :yeah:
(1) Harkleroad/Chakvetadze d. Jankovic/Pennetta 6-2 7-5
Jankovic/Pennetta had veyr good points in the second set. But Harkleroad/Chakvetadze saves 2 set pooints. And now make it into the semi finals. 1 seed i through so far!
(4) Krajciek/Peer d. Stosur/Golovin 7-5 4-6 7-6(2)
What a close match, Stosur/Golovin have now started to use better tatics in thier doubles game. The third set, stosur golovin were leading 5-4, Then 6-5 but Krajicek/Peer are known for never giving up, in thier doubles game and now have made it into the semi's. 2 seeds are in so far.
(3) Tanasugarn/Dominguez Lino Vs Sharapova/Myskina
(3) Tanasugarn/Dominguez Lino d. Sharapova/Myksina 4-6 6-4 6-4
Sharapova/Myskina know how to push Tammy and LDL, to thier limits, this was a very tight match. But unfortunantly Sharapova/Myskina had many cointosses against them, They seem to be a strong team, and will be strong in the future. 3 seeds are through!!
Bremond/mauresmo are big threats for all grass court Tournaments, Having 4 aces. Bad Luck to Henin/Molik. Bersing someone very strong is hard. U hung in ther have saves 2 match points. 3 seeds through :sad:
LDL has been a really consistent player on the tour this season, she's scored good results on all surfaces :yeah: and reaches the 1/4s here, Iveta :hug:
Tough scoreline for Nastya :hug: But Tammy was on fire today, her second set in particular was very impressive :worship: Could Tammy be the Bartoli of the grass season?
Lindsay in back-to-back win shocker :eek: ;) She's been due some good results and I feel her game can get even better this grass season, so this is a good result, Vika :hug:
Amazing battling win for Aravane, she was down in sets two and three but found a way to win, Lucie :hug: Your points are still strong :yeah: Only one seed left :eek:
Misa wins in comfortable fashion :eek: :lol: Misa will be hoping to go all the way this week and please the home fans :p and all the seeds are out :haha: Ash :hug:
This one was really close as the scoreline suggests, both played well but Domi just had a little more left in the tank in the tb ;) Flav :hug:
:weirdo: :weirdo: :weirdo: also in game she sucks :)

and Tati next!:unsure:
Bremond/Mauresmo d. (3) Tanasugarn/Dominguez Lino 5-7 7-6(0) 6-3
There run is finally over, Both matches today were really intense, But Bremond/Mauresmo knew were to put there points. And they really shot it out in the third set. :D!

Lindsay :yeah: I know it's been tough, but the good results are finally coming, both she and Tammy had 4 aces, but Linds took a few more risks and that was the difference, Tammy :hug:
With no aces, Domi is into the semis :eek: Greater vartiation on her part was the key, Aravane, still too patchy :p :hug:
