Commitment List 2010

Caroline Wozniacki

as usual

Hopefully Kim & Justine will turn up - they came to Eastbourne every year before their "retirements".

Clijsters has confirmed she'l play here :)

http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5hL41UI_WV9X5hO73runvbZgQDPZA

Seen www.eastbournetennis.com and they not only confirmed that Kim Clijsters is playing but that it most unlikely that Justine Henin won't return to Devonshire Park.

Free alerts available too - so you get all the pre-tournament news as well as tournament information.

Seems that they have inside information, or are connected with the LTA.

Brilliant site, as they named names last year and revealed the entire entrants six weeks before it was formally announced.

Do see www.eastbournetennis.net for the men's news as well.

Clijsters quotes are there to see at www.eastbournetennis.com - where I got my FREE Tennis Text Alerts about Clijsters before it was announced to the world!

see http://eastbournetennis.com/tenniswomen/news.html for 2010 Eastbourne Tennis news.

Story with quotes about Eastbourne's golden girl Caroline is available at http://eastbournetennis.com/tenniswomen/news.html

Impressed by coverage over the years from this site, and signed up for alerts since 1998. Sponsor names listed at the end of FREE tennis text alerts during the tournament but overall excellent service - and FREE is always great! See http://eastbournetennis.com/tenniswomen/textalerts.html

Keeping my eyes on this forum but www.eastbournetennis.com seems ahead of the opposition, the Brighton Argus and the Eastbourne Herald are very poor for coverage and never report on the tennis until the actual week of the event!

Subtle.

Azarenka will play here according to her website schedule :)

entry list for Holland tournament out but not for Eastbourne :shrug:

Azarenka will play here according to her website schedule :)

:eek:

Notes and Netcords help a bit
Here is what i took away form the upcoming commitments:(good field, 17/25, missing the big 3 drawcards though- Williams x 2 and Sharapova- no surprize)

Wozniaki
Elena DEMENTIEVA, RUS*
Stosur
Radwanska
Clijsters
Azarenka
Li
Wickmayer
Bartoli
Pennetta
Schiavone
Petrova
Martinez Sanchez
Vera Zvonareva
22. Shahar Peer
23. Daniela Hantuchova
24. Aravane Rezai
25. Zheng Jie

I guess notable entries/non entries- Flavia switching events- defending dub's in holland :(
Justine Keeping options open- I reckon she'll get a WC here of Holland

Same with Jelena J and Kuznetsova (although she lost early and badly last year)

Lucie here?

Lucie here?
No one has seen an official list yet, sad to say.

yep, I wasn't saying she should play I was saying the event would be without her and Williams which most organisers aim ofr

The LTA has just published the main-draw entry-list [source (http://www.lta.org.uk/Watch/AEGON-British-Tennis-Series/AEGON-International/News/2010/Main-Draw-Entry-List-announced-for-AEGON-International-/)].

Here it is in order of this week's rankings:

#2 Caroline Wozniacki
#6 Elena Dementieva
#8 Samantha Stosur
#9 Agnieszka Radwańska
#10 Kim Clijsters
#11 Victoria Azarenka
#13 Li,Na
#14 Yanina Wickmayer
#15 Marion Bartoli
#16 Flavia Pennetta
#17 Francesca Schiavone
#18 Nadia Petrova
#19 María José Martínez Sánchez
#21 Vera Zvonarëva
#22 Shahar Pe'er
#23 Daniela Hantuchová
#24 Aravane Rezaï
#25 Zheng,Jie
#28 Alisa Kleybanova
#29 Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova
#30 Lucie Šafářová
#33 Ágnes Szávay
#35 Sorana Cîrstea
#37 Melanie Oudin

Good list....I've got 2nd round tickets so hopefully i'm pretty much guaranteed for seeing most of the top players...I can remember last year i got QF tickets and the only top 10 players making the QF were Radwanska and Wozniacki. :lol:

Interesting list. I am not sure should I buy ticket though. Which day would be the best if I just want to go to Eastbourne for one day Max?

I would say that Tuesday is the best day to go, if you want to maximise your opportunities to see as many players as possible. Last year (http://www.tennisforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1268)'s orders of play should give you an idea of the kinds of matches you can expect to see on each day.

hope Ana will apply a wc

Is Q list out yet? If it is, please can someone tell me..is Akgul playing here?



Thanks!!! :worship:

Chinese in Q or Alts?

Lucic here and 's-Hertogenbosch when the O-lists come out please. :)

TBE..is Cirstea a definite for this now do you know? Everything has gone quiet from her side although she doesn't appear on the Ordina list so I assume she is indeed here? Maybe Birmingham also or no chance?

Much appreciated :)

Much appreciated :)

Do you think she is not playing there??

Do you think she is not playing there??

No reason the believe she isn't playing here, it's just with Sorana I never know what's going to happen. She doesn't appear on the Ordina list and she does on the Eastbourne one so I am probably just panicking un-necessarily. That and the fact I don't fully understand the commitment lists/requirements/rankings for anything other than the grand slams :help:

lapushchenkova?

Any french girls in Q?
Coin?Cornet?Parmentier?

Does anyone have the full list of the qualifiers ?

Pironkova?

Kuznetsova has received a wild card.
http://www.lta.org.uk/Watch/AEGON-British-Tennis-Series/AEGON-International/News/2010/Svetlana-Kuznetsova-awarded-Wild-Card-into-AEGON-International/

Sveta has just been awarded one of the wild cards for the MD here.

Sorry, you just beat me to it gentzy :P

Hahha...am fost mai rapida :P Don't worry, it's good news..It should be posted twice :P

Can someone tell me which Americans are here?

Brit update please?

Schiavone still in?

sprem?

Good to see Sveta here. :D Will be weird to see her unseeded.

sprem?
I read somewhere that she is in Q

Sveta also got a WC last year, only to be bageled in 1st set by A.Woz :o

Is Hercog here, or is she at Rosmalen?
Polona is not in the MD at either tourney this week; she might be in Eastbourne quallies, I dunno...

Slovaks in QD?

I may have missed it but is Dulko playing qualies?

Kim and Vika have already arrived in Eastbourne!:D This time next week I could be watching one of them play, im sooo excited to see Vika!
:woohoo:

Not sure if it was posted before but British No.1 Elena Baltacha and British No.3 Anne Keothavong have been awarded wildcards into the AEGON International.

Where is Q draw?

No.4 for the title

I was wondering the same thing. The Qualifying draw should have been announced ..

Is it a Friday start for Qualifying? or the Draw will be out tonight...

Sania in Q , thanks ?

Chakvetadze?

Is it a Friday start for Qualifying? or the Draw will be out tonight...

Saturday start, so QD will be out tonight.

given our experience with the LTA this season, we should be happy with a QD before the start of play tomorrow

given our experience with the LTA this season, we should be happy with a QD before the start of play tomorrow

:haha: It's true though :p

It is true. :bigcry:

The Eastbourne tournament promotes their official Twitter account with a big logo on their frontpage: http://www.lta.org.uk/Watch/AEGON-British-Tennis-Series/AEGON-International (http://www.lta.org.uk/Watch/AEGON-British-Tennis-Series/AEGON-International/)

http://twitter.com/AEGONInternat

But they have only made two tweets in total, dating April 16th and 21st. With that in mind it's not surprising they are not capable of publishing a simple draw sheet.

Their Twitter account is a joke, if they are not going to use it at all they shouldn't promote it, just to try to look cool and up to date with socials medias.

The 's-Hertogenbosch singles qualifying draw is on the WTA site now, but still no sign of Eastbourne draws:

when main draw?
