Re: Petko in the USA - Indian Wells & Miami
US Open MD is much more realistic

Re: Petko in the USA - Indian Wells & Miami
Goal should be to be seeded, in RG Qualifying - she still lose points from Stuttgart,a d with tough draws in Charleston and Stuttgart you never know how much points she can score

Come on, think positive:
This year it's the 50th anniversary of the German-French-friendship, Petko is kind of a "Stimmungskanone" and (now the killer reason for RG to give her a wild card) SHE SPEAKS FRENCH

Re: Petko in the USA - Indian Wells & Miami
i would prefer her to play quali
1 win there is worth 40 points
and in Maindraw she needs luck with the draw

Re: Petko in the USA - Indian Wells & Miami
By the way, this is the second time in six months that she serves a bagel in the first set and still loses. Last time was against Martic in Tokyo. Back then she also was a break up in the second set. Must be something physical I think..

Its just lacking match practice  as long as her game works she can win easily, like the 3 matches she won after her comeback. and when it got tight, she lost. Will take some time to get that right feeling back for those situations.

Re: Petko in the USA - Indian Wells & Miami
Sad she couldn't win but it's indeed a lack of match rhythm. It's tough to play the same level for just more than one set.
I so hope she can qualify for Wimbledon MD. I'm going and would so like to see her again.
