I agree

Su-Wei wins first game to love against Wozniacki.

[GoofyDuck]

Su-Wei def. Hantuchova 6-1 0-6 6-4

She was down *1-3 0-40 in 3rd set but saved all 3 breakpoints and got to 4-3

I'm really happy she got a win, she was really happy in the oncourt interview aswell. She said she was very nervous in her first match and best coach advice was to get a ball in the court

[coetzergambill]

congrats for the win su-wei! btter luck next time! and keep up the ood form for the next season!

[GoofyDuck]

After the Championships in Sofia Hsieh went backpacking through Austria. she visited Salzburg and Insbruck.











But she's back in Taiwan now, guess she started practicing?

Su-Wei so far is top seed for Hobart
Hopefully she can get at least 200 Points from those 2 Tournaments

Hopefully she can live up to her seeding (kinda expecting too much).

If she can get 500 points out of these four tournaments that would be good.

- Shenzhen
- Hobart
- AO
- Pattaya City

At least it will cover the deficits from AO, Pattaya City and Kuala Lumpur last year.

I'm happy that Su-Wei's coach is with her through the entire offseason, training together.

If anything, this is the best we could wish for going into the new season.

Let's live up to your seeding and start of the year with a tournament win (delusional expecting to much )

[chingching]

I don't see why she can't get a:
Shenzhen SF
Hobart SF
Australian Open R2/3
Pattaya City SF

She has obviously been training so well and I think that her win over Dani will have given her some confidence

Shenzhen is not that difficult looking at the draw but Hobart is going to be a challenge unless she draws Suarez Navarro as the seed in her quarter. In that case I will give her the doubt of winning the QF. As for the rest non-seeds, I think any Qs or the likes of Pironkova, Dominguez-Lino, Robson, Jovanovski, Niculescu are okay for the doubt.

Australian Open, depending on the draw, R32 possible. If does well in Shenzhen then R16 possible with better seeding. However, if she draws some random bombs like Kuznetsova then no good. Pattaya City is too early to speculate at this moment.

Expecting something like:

Shenzhen SF (130)
Hobart QF (70)
Melbourne R32 (160)
Pattaya City QF (70)

Not 500 points

[coolfish1103]

Current schedule for Su-Wei in Q1:

Shenzhen
Hobart
Melbourne
Pattaya City
Fed Cup
---
Doha
Dubai
Kuala Lumpur
Indian Wells
Miami

The latter is pretty much given because she will be playing doubles with Peng Shuai.
Kuala Lumpur will be a title defense and IW/Miami are mandatory regardless of doubles.

Expect some rest time in April, maybe see her in Wenshan 50k again
If not, then Fes might be a good place to continue!

If she gets an extra 70 then she has 500

[GoofyDuck]

Well she has (pretty much) nothing to defend in Australia so any points she get is good.

a R3 or better at AO would be great!
