Anett Kontaveit is 14 years old tennis player. She won Estonian national championships in 2009. Could she be new star for Estonia in future? Atleast there is hope for that. This thread is for her. So let`s share Anett`s tennis results and talk about her tennis.
I was following this match and was very worried when 3-1 30-40 became 3-3 40-30 but Anett recovered nicely I think she can get past Oprandi if she plays well, she hasn't made a Final for ages!
Surprised how one-sided it was. Hopefully she takes the positives out of this week and at least plays well in Paris I am hoping for a good grass season.

Anett Kontaveit v (wc)Katerina Stewart
(wc)Clothilde de Bernardi v (17)Michelle Larcher de Brito
If Anett is playing poorly she will struggle with Stewart. If she is playing well though she should really make FQR. Doubt she'll beat Liza but Liza may flop and lose earlier
Good luck Anett! Her draw is OK in my opinion. It could have been a lot worse. I don't know much about Stewart, but MLB is dangerous. Then again, the draw is still ok. Many way more dangerous players fortunately landed far from Anett.
The Stewart/Nettu match up for me is an example of a Tier 1 player in bad form playing a Tier 3 player in Good form. If Anett can get some form together she really should make QFR. MLDB has been atrocious and Clothilde hasn't done anything since Anett beat her at 10K level.
Watching some of Stewart and I can't believe A) how highly she's ranked and B) how good her results have been weak recently. TYes the 50Ks were piss weak btu aside from the fact that she hits very heavy, it's astonishing how far she's gone.
And now 0-40. What is wrong with her...
Broken 5-3 15-40 winning 11 of 12 points and then loses 8 in a row
Gets from 30-0 back to 30-30 bur Stewart holds.
