Sabine is playing so much :unsure:

she's not playing Quebec and Tokyo

Will the defending champion be back? She needs points, especially after the US Open ones drop. Plus I imagine she wants to qualify for Bali so she can defend those points...

According to WTA's Top 25 players schedule (http://www.wtatennis.com/SEWTATour-Archive/Archive/Notes&Netcords/2011/sept26.pdf) Yanina Wickmayer (BEL), who is on tournaments entry list (http://www.generali-ladies.at/das.turnier_spielerinnen.php) and withdraw from P5 Tokyo for personal reasons, will not play in Linz. If so, Simona Halep (ROU) will be in MD.

One of my favorite tournaments! Great venue, great entry lists and fantastic city. Linz can be named one of the best ever stops in WTA history.
The EL is great. Hope everyone will attend and of course a seed for Danka won't be bad!

Aleks said on twitter she has the all clear from her doctor and is flying to Linz tonight! And she will also play in Lux! :bounce::bounce:

Petra Kvitova is playing in Linz.

Great news :yeah:

Here is proof that Serena is playing in Linz.

http://www.livetennisguide.com/2011/09/23/can-serena-williams-win-grand-slam-in-2012/
Serena's agent, Jill Smoller, confirmed to TENNIS.com that Serena is not entered in any more [WTA] events this year. (http://tennis.com/articles/templates/news.aspx?articleid=14664&zoneid=25)

Linz Have a Strong As List This Year

Aga should play her if she wants to play in the YEC.

True But I think she should ask for a WC at HP Japan Women's Open

Petra Kvitova is playing in Linz.

Thanks.

Petra Kvitova is playing in Linz.
I didn’t update seeding list (projected http://www.tennisforum.com/showpost.php?p=20312389&postcount=64) for the following reasons:

As tournament didn’t award [WC] to reigning Wimbledon Champion Petra Kvitova (not a Top 20 player) yet, there might me more requests than tickets.
One [WC] was awarded to Top 10 player Jelena Jankovic.
According to tournament, Austrian players Tamira Paszek (on MD entry list), Patricia Mayr-Achleitner & Yvonne Meusbruger will participate. The last two players need a WC for MD entry.

I don´t care much. Petra said she is playing in Linz. If they are not interested fine.

Generali-Ladies-Veranstalter Peter-Michael Reichel weilte in den vergangenen Tagen bei den WTA-Turnieren in Tokio und Peking und führte an beiden Schauplätzen intensive Verhandlungen, um noch einen weiteren Star nach Linz zu lotsen. „Die Gespräche sind sehr vielversprechend verlaufen. Ich bin zuversichtlich, dass es mit der Verpflichtung einer Top-Ten-Spielerin noch klappen wird“, erklärte Reichel nach seiner Rückkehr aus Asien.

I don´t care much. Petra said she is playing in Linz. If they are not interested fine.
As Petra played last three years in Linz (RU 2009), I am positive that tournament likes her to play. But, as she didn't enter, a [WC] has to be awarded, I think we can wait until tomorrow!

I wonder whether Sabine will be fit enough in time after her food poisoning episode. She's hoping to be, but I'm not so sure.

I think it's possible that the organizers give a WC to Petra.

They never handed WC's to Mayr and Meusburger. Both confirmed to play, but I could also mean that they are playing Qualies. ;)

Peer, Zakopalova and Halep withdrew in MD

I think it's possible that the organizers give a WC to Petra.
No doubt about it (the same organizers offered Petra the latest possible schedule for R1 Badgastein 2011), but at this time, [WC] is not confirmed yet.

I think it's possible that the organizers give a WC to Petra.

They never handed WC's to Mayr and Meusburger. Both confirmed to play, but I could also mean that they are playing Qualies. ;)

Mayr had a late withdrawal yesterday from $25K Sant Cugat which starts on Monday. I highly doubt she withdraws from there (fine included) only to play qualies in Linz. She probably withdrew from St. Cugat once her MDWC was confirmed.

Wildcard for Petra Kvitova is now confirmed on the tournament homepage.

Petra Kvitova is playing in Linz.
After tournament confirms (http://www.generali-ladies.at/presse/news5_360.php) the entry of reigning Wimbledon Champion Petra Kvitová, this is the update:

didnt know where to ask, so i do it here.
anyone knows a cheap hotel next to the tournament? thanks!

She was three out of the Linz qualifying when she got on the plane, though she's probably well in by now.

Which Brits are still in the qualies?

This is a good one: http://www.hotelreservierung.de/hotel/hotelInfo/id/152207

Been there on new-years-evening :)

Mit dem Sieg in Wimbledon setzte Kvitova ihrer bisher erfolgreichsten Saison die Krone auf. Vor Wimbledon hatte sie bereits in Brisbane, Paris (Indoors) und Madrid gewonnen. Mit diesen fantastischen Erfolgen kletterte sie in der Weltrangliste bis auf Rang fünf. Damit nimmt die Linkshänderin derzeit ihr bestes Ranking ein. Bei diesen herausragenden Resultaten ist es auch nicht weiter verwunderlich, dass Kvitova mit 3.338.993 USDollar auch die Jahresverdienst-Wertung der WTA-Tour anführt.


With 3.3 mill dollars won what is Petra doing in this MM? ;)

May be cuz she lost all after Wimby...

Petra was not top 10 at end of 2010 so she can play as many MM as she wants :bigwave:

Alona.B?

that is a good field for a MM ... Kirilenko, Pennetta, Hantuchova LOOMING :eek:
