I can talk with Anett, so i'll ask her after tournaments what are her thoughts and all that, so i'll tell you guys everytime i hear something new from her

Would be great, many thanks.

That would be so cool.
Btw, does Anett know that there is this kind of forum with her subthread?
Anyway, welcome to the forum, nimona123

Re: Anett Kontaveit
It would be so awkward to read what people have to say about you...

Re: Anett Kontaveit
Anetts chiasso field released tomorrow!!!!!!!!!
Hopefully weaker than last years
I think that if she can get 60 points approximately (winner in tunis and quarters in chiasso or semis in chiasso finals in tunis) that would be a good result. I have thought of a potentially good schedule (i hope she reads and chooses this one  :
1. 25K Tunis
2. 25K Chiasso
3. Week Off
4. G1 Italy
5. GA Italy
6. Week Off
7. French Open
8. Week Off
9. 25K Kristinehamm
10. Week Off/G1 Roehampton
11. Wimbledon
12. Week Off
13. WTA Bastad
14. WTA Baku
I know its quite packed but I belive that it gets the most out of the tournaments
My reasoning:
1 + 2: I wouldnt have put these but shes already committed
3 + 4 + 5: She can head to Italy and play some matches to get used to teh flow of juniors again and get her ranking up
6 + 7: She could play Astrid Bowl in week 6 but 6 tournaments in 7 weeks is hard work especially if your reaching the last few days of every one. Plus, the ranking points for this tournament dont count for French Open Seedings. French Open is a good choice and if she can get around 1000 Points alltogether from these junior events (including doubles) she might get more junior exempts for next year, if she needs them
8 + 9: It would be nice to play an easier 25K which it wwill be because all the players in the top 220 will be a wimbly qualies and she should get into maindraw
10: I think she should have a week off and practice for wimbledon instead of going from clay to grass in potentially a day, especially when she hasnt had much experience on grass. It has worked for champions like sharapova and willimas in the past
11: Wimbledon juniors may be her last slam
12: Week off for training
13 + 14: Weaker Wtas which she can play to get some more experience. A WC may be necessary for Bastad but I highly doubt it for Baku. She has a good chance of making some Maindraws and except for the quick change of surface, these tournaments would be perfect. To add to the normal weakness of these tournaments, they also collide with the US hardcourt swing this year due to olympics, meaning they will be even weaker

Lisicki's of a Polish heritage from her father side. Is her mother Dutch? (She can't be Estonian, or the media would have picked it up a long time ago  )

Well not by blood. My Dutch mothers Brother is married to Sabines Aunt (her moms sister)
Which means that Sabine and I have a mutual cousin.
So what do you think of my schedule. I want opinions!!!!!
Everyone else should make one too, to give Anett inspiration!!!
Anett could have made Quarters of Copenhagen given the draw!!!! She has the game to beat an out of form Martic and then Konta 
Then she could have faced off with Niculescu and won that. Then Wozniacki
Its as if god each day wants us to feel worse about that groundstroke 3-4 inches out

An article and a video.
When asked about playing more WTA-s her coach says that out of 4 allowed wildcards they have now used 1 and that they will surely try to get more.

I mean, if it's been raining in tallinn, dont tere tennisekeskus (where she was just playing) have indoor clay courts???
