Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi! -- Lucie at the 2013 Australian Open
 

Second Quarter of the Draw: Lucie's Section
Nadia Petrova (RUS) [12] vs. Kimiko Date-Krumm (JPN)
Shahar Peer (ISR) vs. Alexandra Panova (RUS)
Maria-Teresa Torro-Flor (ESP) vs. Bojana Jovanovski (SRB)
Mirjana Lucic-Baroni (CRO) vs. Lucie Safarova (CZE) [17]

So not a horrific draw... I'd be pleased if she made it to the third round and gave Petrova a tough fight honestly. If she could get out of this section (which would be a monumental victory in and of itself), that'd mean she's probably playing good tennis and would have a shot against Stephens, Kvitova, or Robson I think.

Let's go Lucie! Can't be worse than last year! Hope my thread brings some luck.

:yeah: It's actually all things considered a pretty good draw...she knows Lucic's game because she played her last year and beat her 6-2 6-0...I agree with you, making R3 and pushing Petrova would be a successful tournament for her imo. Here's hoping anyway.

Mirjana is extremely dangerous when she's playing well, but that only happens on grass now. :sobbing:

I'm hoping she at least makes the R32 anyway. :D

Like the draw. Hope we get a stream for Lucie vs Mirjana Lucic match :hearts:

A loss before R3 would be a big disappointment. I really hope Lucie remembers 2007 ;)

I seriously hope she goes back to Fed Cup form. This draw is just too delicious to pass up.

Honestly a player like Lucic shouldn't have even won three games this set.. What is wrong with Lucie this year?
