Re: Valient Valeria Solovieva Cheering Thread!
She made the qualifying draw of course, there are only 16 players in. She has to play Caroline Garcia first, good luck, Lera  |

Re: Valient Valeria Solovieva Cheering Thread!
Lera has had a steady ascension the last two years; breaking into the Top 200 in 2012.
YER
2012 182
2011 285
She made the qualies of Shenzhen. Here is her draw:
(1) Voegele, Stefanie
Diyas, Zarina
(5) Garcia, Caroline
Solovieva, Valeria
I think defeating Caroline is doable. Lera has nothing to lose, so she should go all out.

Re: Valient Valeria Solovieva Cheering Thread!
Lera lost to Caroline pretty routinely, 3 & 4. She needs to beef up the power of her first serve if she's going to compete at this level.

Defeated Chang/Yan, 2 & 3! Now she and Irina go against #1 Chan/Chan for their second WTA title!

Fell to Chan/Chan, 06 57. Good effort this week, though! Now, off to the AO qualies!

Re: Valient Valeria Solovieva Cheering Thread!
Here is Lera's draw for AO:
(2)Monica Puig (PUR) v Qiang Wang (CHN)
(wc)Priscilla Hon (AUS) v Valeria Solovieva (RUS)Valeria Savinykh (RUS) v Victoria Larriere (FRA)
Nastassja Burnett (ITA) v (19)Anastasia Rodionova (AUS)
I don't know her opponent, she is unranked and 14 yrs old. But it looks like it is a great draw for her in first round. With the current results, playing Puig in rnd 2, I don't expect her to go any further. Go and win this match, Lera |

Re: Valient Valeria Solovieva Cheering Thread!
Not sure it was pretty but whe won . Lost first set in tiebreak and then won 6-3, 6-0. So 40 valuable points in the bag. Now she has to play Chinese Wang, who beat Puig, did not expect that. Good luck, Lera! |

Puig being out makes things so much better and hopeful. Good luck Lera!

1st set for Lera, 6-2 (being 0-2 down, so that's an invisible bagel   )

Re: Valient Valeria Solovieva Cheering Thread!
Great achievement, Lera, well done . Indeed not bad for a first appearance. Now for a spot in MD to another Lera fave of mine, Savinykh. Either winner will make me happy, but what Lera achieved here already is awesome. Good luck |
