Great pics, thanks.

Alex @ 25k Moscow.
Lucky to be seeded, needs to take advangate of some easy points.

(7)Alexandra Artamonova (RUS) v Q
(wc)Mayya Katsitadze (RUS) v Q
Olga Ianchuk (UKR) v Q
(3)Polina Pekhova (BLR) v Jasmin Steinherr (GER)

Hope she can avoid Salnikova (if she qualifies). Good luck Artie

Alex plays in Russia again this week, 50k Kazan this time.

R1: Alexandra Artamonova (RUS) d. (wc)Ekaterina Yashina (RUS) 61 61

Alex visit's the bakery again, but she's selling this time. That's a good win, and a valuable 10 points collected.

Lost in R2 to 4th seed 06 46. At least she only ate one bagel this time?

She needs a break through.

Artie's playing Tashkent qualies

(4)Monica Puig (PUR) v Madalina Gojnea (ROU)
Margarita Gasparyan (RUS) v (wc)Polina Merenkova (UZB)
Nadiya Kichenok (UKR) v Donna Vekic (CRO)
Alexandra Artamonova (RUS) v (6)Noppawan Lertcheewakarn (THA)

I had a feeling she might pop up here

First WTA for Alex, tough opener. Good luck

Tennis Fool · Sep 8th, 2012, 11:58 AM

Holy sh--, she dumped Noppawan!

That match must have been a horror show, look at the stats

Tennis Fool · Sep 9th, 2012, 08:16 AM

Artie fell to Donna, 2 & 3. Not bad at all.

Mana · Sep 9th, 2012, 09:08 PM

I followed the match, and she was up *2-0 in the second. The second seemed more even that the first.

Good WTA debut

Didn't quite sneak into the doubles draw though

Mana · Oct 30th, 2012, 07:14 PM

^ Donna went on to reach the final

Artie is back this week in Israel, 25k Netanya.

R1: Alexandra Artamonova (RUS) d. (Q)Francesca Stephenson (GBR) 61 75

Got the important 8 points. She's defending a bit over the next couple of weeks, so that's an important win. Anna Schmiedlova next. Try your best

Mana · Nov 6th, 2012, 08:57 PM

Lost to Schmiedlova last week winning two games.

25k Minsk:
R1: Alexandra Artamonova (RUS) d. Anastasiya Vasylyeva (UKR) 61 64

(1)Kateryna Kozlova (UKR) next

Mana · Nov 7th, 2012, 05:11 PM

(1) Kozlova d. Alex 64 36 63

So close to a big upset

Mana · Nov 12th, 2012, 08:28 PM

25k Helsinki this week, the scene of her only win over a top 200 player (#187 Glushko) last year, and went on to make the quarterfinals. 15 points to defend.

R1: Arantxa Parra-Santonja (ESP) v Alexandra Artamonova (RUS)

R1: Artamonova/Monova (RUS/RUS) v Mestach/Van Uytvanck (BEL/BEL)

75K Dubai qualies.

Artie had a great couple of rounds. First, she upset #6 Irina Buryachok, 62 36 64. Then she double-breadsticked Nicole Rottman.

She now faces #2 Cristina Dinu for a spot in the main draw, but this will be too tough, I think.

This is a good way to finish the season, good luck against Dinu. Not with out a chance, but it'd be a good win alright.

Didn't get into the doubles draw.
