So sad Pajalic and Urbancic gave up playing the journeywoman. Lucky Jakupovic took over that job. :lol:

And :eek: Didn't know about Kajtazovic.. well as BIH I will still like her..:)

Urbancic is injured I believe, Pajalic must have been told that she should find something more fulfilling when having too much time on her hands.:lol:

Kajtazovic, she's talented but doesn't play often enough and even when she does she loses early. I don't see how can nationality change help her in the future:shrug:

Jakupovic, do i need to say anything? If possible she would go travel to Arctica to play a tournament.:tape::o

I still haven't updated the first post:lol:

I'll try and upload their pictures once the week-end starts. Hopefully.:unsure:

Going to do my homework now:p

Petra has mentioned in a interview in Dothan that she will probably not play past 33. for the article type 'petra rampre' in the news section on yahoo. thats how i found it

Now posted in the Dothan thread in Challenger forum. It's a nice article. :)

Oh, thanks for posting it.:D Was searching for it yesterday but couldn't find it:o

BTW, her father is competing in the Slovene version of America's got talent. He went through to the SF, singing a song of Joe Cocker. There was all his family except for Petra. I really wonder what happened between them that left those serious consequences for Petra

Petra won 7-5,6-4 over Giral Lores to face Elizabeth Lumpkin, which is winnable, for a spot in a 50k QF :yeah:

Petra is into the semifinals of a 50k! :eek:

2r: def. Elizabeth Lumpkin (USA) 3-6,6-2,6-1
QF: def. Asia Muhammed (USA) 6-4,6-3

Awesome result for her, which should cause a nice little bump in the rankings. I think this must be her best result since that Rockford final in 2003 or so.:eek:

One more step Petra!:D

Nope, they didn't. I don't watch every episode so I'm not sure if he performed in the SF yet, but when I saw him in the previous round I was sure he's her father. They look very alike:p

I have no time to keep updating this thread but as for the most recent results - Petra defeated Olga Puchkova 63 64 in the first round of Lexington 50k:woohoo:

News: There are a few Slovene teenage girls competing at 10k tournaments in Europe obviously making use of Summer school break - Maša Šmic(17) and Tjaša Šrimpf(16) both scored a few wins, but not enough to make it to the WTA list. Jelena Durišič who started competing 5 years ago as a 16yo girl is also back after 3 years break and already reached a doubles final in Serbia and also scored a few Q wins. Hopefully all these girls play even more tournaments:)

Nastja Kolar won a match in Monteroni 25k before falling to Elisa Balsamo in 2 tight sets. Hopefully she plays a few more tournaments in order to get her ranking in the top 600 or so.

Petra Rampre and Polona Rebersak both scored a first round win at the tournaments in Redding and Zagreb.:yeah:

The final 2010 WTA rankings will come out on Monday when I'll post the ranking of the Slovene girls.

Most notable achievements of the recent months. Jakupovic has returned back to top 400, Anja Prislan had very solid reults at the end of the year and moves to around her career best in the top 700.

I just realized. Out of that awesome generation of Slovenian girls born in the years 80 and 81, Petra Rampre is the last one standing and still competing in singles:eek::sad: Katarina Srebotnik, Tina Pisnik, Maja Matevzic, Tina Hergold, Petra Rampre, Nives Culum and Tina Hojnik won all 3 possible Junior World Team Championships in the categories U-14(1995), U-16(1996) and U-18(1997). The first 3 made it to the top 100 in singles and doubles, Rampre to top 100 in doubles, the rest dropped out due to injuries. Now we're seeing the swan song of this generation:(

Petra Rampre just made a final on 50k in Relaigh beating Stevenson, Babos, Muhammed and Boserup.
She will play Giorgi in the final, good luck :cheer:

I was there... and she won 6-3, 6-2.

http://i51.tinypic.com/30w2u01.jpg

Apparently she's a favorite here after playing in this tournament so many times... so it was good to see her win.

:hearts::hearts::hearts:

How was she playing?

The thing that stuck out at me the most was her serve. She dominated most of her service games throughout the match.

Funny, I think she never considered her serve to be any kind of a weapon:lol:

that's such a wonderful result for Petra and how awesome it would be if she could carry on with this form and perhaps even get to the US qualies. Maybe they should give her a QWC for promoting USTA circuit:lol:

In addition to the title she had won in Raleigh, Petra Rampre also played the final in El Paso 25, won another 50k in Boston and is now in the SF of the 50k in Waterloo! With the latest win over Chanel Simmonds 0 and 6, she'll overtake Zec-P and become the 2nd best ranked Slovenian!


:bowdown: What an unbelievable spell of results for her!

Petra has qualified for only her 3rd WTA MD and the first since Klagenfurt 2000! Bojana Jovanovski is the opponent in the first round:( I'm not sure she can beat her but sure as hell it won't be easy for the Serb.

Go Petra!:bounce:

1R (Q) US Open:

Petra Rampre def. Olivia Rogowska (AUS) 7:6(3), 7:5

go Petra!! :D

Is TS her sponsor or what? Nice promo:yeah:

These younger girls are really good looking. Masa Smic is also quite a looker - it's a shame that her results are regressing this year.

Petra Rampre will be playing FED CUP in Japan next year! Good to see that even a blind man such as Iztok Bozic can actually take a look at the rankings and see that Rampre is the logical choice out of the claycourt "specialists" in the Slovene team.

The last time Petra played in Fed Cup was in 2002 when Slovenia beat Ukraine in Portoroz and she played doubles with Brumen.

Petra interview.

Very quiet for her last year and doubles with Shlomo. She got a good article on ITF site.
