Re: Davay Vika! - the Victoria Kan cheering thread
25K Benicarlo qualies.
Vika was the #3 seed, and made the main draw after defeating #11 Aleksandra Papenkova, 2 & 1.
She plays Arantxa Parra-Santonja first round.

Little Vika is into the QF at 10K Antalya, and is about to play her QF match against (3)Kramperova right now (Vika is Seed 7).
You can watch it here

Re: Davay Vika! - the Victoria Kan cheering thread
Vika eventually won 1st set 7-5, being *1-4 down, but it took her like 10 SP to eventually close out the set. This set was fugly. 
Davay Vika, win this fast.

Re: Davay Vika! - the Victoria Kan cheering thread
Vika is so dependable. You can almost always write her into the SF if you see her in a draw.
This was her first match in a month. Lorendana looks to be a talented up-and-coming 16 y.o., but Vika should win this and mark her place in the finals.

Re: Davay Vika! - the Victoria Kan cheering thread
The other semi has just finished, so she's gonna play (1) Vasylyeva, who seems to be in poor form this week (3 out of her 4 matches this week were tight 3-setters, and she just saved 3 or 4 MP in her semi.)
Take it, Vika

Re: Davay Vika! - the Victoria Kan cheering thread
I saw a bit of the match. This was my first time seeing Vika. She's a wily one! She doesn't have a serve, but makes up for it with a bag of tricks: fast retrieving, great drop shots, and the best weapon-- a double and single backhand! I've never seen that before! Now I can see why she wins so much being so short--she throws her opponents off with her game.
Good luck to her against the #1 seed.

Exactly! And she can still grow up a bit and work on that serve to make it if not a strenght, not a weakness either.

Re: Davay Vika! - the Victoria Kan cheering thread
Wow, I was just taking a look at her 2012 résumé and she won that Sarajevo 15K and she beat Pfizenmaier in the final

Re: Davay Vika! - the Victoria Kan cheering thread
Really, she is too good for the 10ks, but struggles a bit in the 25ks.
