Sanchez held

4-5

ZUZANA MUST HOLD!

Farina Elia Fan · Jan 9th, 2008, 11:35 PM

she saved 2 match points but is out 1-6 4-6

she took too long to get going - her ranking is going to fall BADLY now

Zuzana

This was awful

Watching her score go up to 4-3 when she won 4 in a row was great, but it wasn't enough :/

I thought she'd be able to win this one, but I guess she was just too rusty?

I hope she enters some more tournaments soon to get that ranking back up where it should be

I'll blog about the match in a bit.

If anyone sees any photos of the match anywhere PLEASE put them here

Zuzana is playing Mixed Doubles!!! She and her boyfriend(?) Peter Frelich (I posted a pic of them together before) were alternates, and they got in! They're the last match up on Court 6, which is a TV court!

isnt he ranked outside the top 1000 and Zuzana never plays doubles

I got to watch her match!

Zuzana and Petr were overmatched and it wound up not being too competitive, as Voskoboeva and Cermak won it 60 61. But Zuzana and Petr looked like they were having a lot of fun out there, laughing, smiling, joking with each other. Fun is what mixed doubles is all about.

I took some screen captures, which aren't of very high quality but are still nice. I'll post them in a bit.

Awesome! Allez Zuzi! Safarova made the finals of Gaz de France last year, so hopefully Zuzana can do her one better.

I'll try to get my Zuzi pics from mixed up as soon as possible.

I found this fierce Zuzana picture today, from when she bounced Daniela Hantuchova (our AO champion?) from Berlin last May

Petr was kinda getting knocked around by Galina

. He also had a few bad mishits where the ball hit the fence ten feet up or so. He did manage a few aces though, and the game they won was on his serve.

And they seemed very happy together, very giggly. He seems like a funny one, that Petr.
