Well, I definitely wanted to see them. Just saw your post now.
Thanks so much!

Sorry I don't have any of her actually running and hitting the ball or something, but I've tried to get shots of sportspeople in action before and it doesn't really work with my poor old camera  - they come out all blurry

Re: Vitalia Diatchenko Cheering Thread
I don't know much about Vita on grass but this is a dangerous section. Broady is tough and Tatishvili can play very well at times. Schruff is a good seed, though.
Thanks, meelis.

Re: Vitalia Diatchenko Cheering Thread
I checked her past results and found no grass court history so I'm not sure we should expect too much from her first Wimbledon. Vita does like faster surfaces, though, so we may be surprised.  |

Re: Vitalia Diatchenko Cheering Thread
Wow there must be something about Broady I am completely missing. I thought that was a good first round for her.  I think she could qualify here. Begu and Tatishvili are tough, but she'll only have to face one of those, and she should beat either of Silva or Elliott, provided she takes out Broady. |

Re: Vitalia Diatchenko Cheering Thread
Yeah, after thinking about it more, we overestimated the draw slightly, except for the fact that she's never played on grass and Broady definitely has. At least she's not in section 4.  |

Re: Vitalia Diatchenko Cheering Thread
Good draw besides Broady. If she gets past her I'm confident for another Slam MD. Hope to be seeing her on ESPN360. Her game will most likely be even more fun and quirky on grass.

What's so good about Broady?!  I didn't realise she was so highly rated.  |
