[Boreas]

Yeah, I've just realized. Paszek doesn't like clay all that much, I think. However, at this stage I'de be happy if she wins a set

[Boreas]

Masa defeated Paszek 2-6 6-2 6-3 God news afetr many losses she suffered in the last few months. Poor first set but then she got herself together and wth quite a bit of struggle won the next 2. Made "only" 7 DFs.

She will be playing against Dentoni in the 2nd round

[igralec33]

Yeah, that is great win for her! Now is there nice chance for qualifying. Dentoni is beatable and also Larsson isn't so good on clay. Good luck, Maša.

[Boreas]

Maša passes Dentoni 6-2 6-4. It could be even easier if it wasn't for Maša's DFs (6 in total) in the crucial moments.

In the final Q round she's facing the toughest out of the 3, Simona Halep. Go Maša

[igralec33]

Nice win, Maša!
Hope she will qualify now.

[Boreas]

Lost to Halep 1-6 5-7, in her very own way threw away the second set. Perhaps she can get in as LL otherwise we're off to Barcelona

[Boreas]

ZAHLAVOVA, Sandra CZE vs. ZEC PESKIRIC, Masa SLO
KUCOVA, Zuzana SVK vs. LARSSON, Johanna SWE
CABEZA CANDELA, Estrella ESP vs. MOLIK, Alicia AUS
NICULESCU, Monica ROU vs. PARMENTIER, Pauline FRA

Very hard draw for Maša. Should win the first 2 rounds and then she either gets Molik or Parmentier. Both are not very comfortable on clay but still have great serve.

[Boreas]

Maša defeated Zahlavova 60 64

Zuzana Kucova is her next opponent. Zuzana won their only previous meeting in Jounieh, last year 46 01

[Boreas]

Defeated Kucova an Molik to qualify for the main draw. Lost to Kirilenko in the first round Not gaining enough points by losing this early

[igralec33]

After all pretty solid performance in Barcelona - but she needs some wins in MD as well.

[Boreas]

In need for an update: Maša and Tadeja won the doubles rubber for Slovenia, defeating Sema and Fujiwara 64 67 63.

Maša is up to play in France, where she usually does well. Cagnes Sur Mer is her stop on the tour and she'll be playing tomorrow against one of the qualifiers. Pairing with Ksenia Pervak she will face Clerico/Kalabina in round 1.

Good luck

[Boreas]

Good news from France. Maša fought hard and won her first 2 matches, defeating de Andres and Meusburger. Both matches took only slightly less than 3 hours. Her QF opponent is no.1 seed Yaroslava Shvedova, who leads H2H 2-0. Good luck

She's still in the doubles tournament with Pervak - their QF opponents are Meusburger/Barrois

[Boreas]

Maša has served surprisingly little amount of DFs. Only 5 today and 4 yesterday. In both matches she served a couple of aces, too.

[Boreas]

Maša defeated Shvedova 64 16 63 to secure her place in the semis. Served 3 aces and 3 DFs - her serve stats are getting more and more weird

[Boreas]

Barrois goes home despite winning 14 more points than Maša. Maša won 76 16 75 and will face Kaia Kanepi in the final. Only 2 DFs

Good luck tomorrow
