Re: Iveta Benesova Photos Thread
Warsaw must have been awfully cold today: three shirts and leggin's to play in the morning  . No wonder Iveta prefers the (sub-)tropics  :
 
brrr..

Re: Iveta Benesova Photos Thread
Thanks for the photos!
Dare I ask how Iveta was playing?  I imagine not very well!

Re: Iveta Benesova Photos Thread
Thanks for linking them... I hope everyone can see them still. I was getting close to my limit for the month on photobucket (it will reset on the 7th June).
Ehm yeah she wasn't playing very well in singles (some of the pics were from dubs, she wore the same outfit) she was getting frustrated really easily (well OK it is Iveta, but still...) and it just looked like if she didn't win the point in the first few shots she just kinda thought "stuff it" (again, it is Iveta).  It's funny how pretty much all of the Czech girls tend to be headcases. They can pull out a good week occasionally and then have some really crap weeks.

Re: Iveta Benesova Photos Thread
Thanks DG! Another great set of photos!
Yeah, she missed her chance at a deep run but that's Iveta, nothing surprising here.
Hopefully it will click on grass this year, she has the flat shots and a good net game, don't know why she sucks so much on that surface.

Re: Iveta Benesova Photos Thread
I agree. I don't understand why she does so poorly on grass. She can produce some good one-two punches and her flat groundies seem to be more suited to grass, than clay.
I think she's only won four main-draw matches on grass in her career, which includes a victory against Castano

Re: Iveta Benesova Photos Thread
Despite sub-par performance in singles, Iveta had a decent Wimbledon playing 9 matches and reaching QF in mixed doubles, loosing to eventual champions.

Re: Iveta Benesova Photos Thread
I've just compiled all of my Iveta photos and I've put them into one photo album.
