tough draw for jessy and lavinia, but a beatable team for yayuk and tetiana! gl ladies! get the wins!

at least Jessy/ Tananta have some experience to plays with Ex-Number 1 player.... LOL

[coetzergambill]

Rompies/Tananta playing their doubles match right now.... 2-2 first set! gl ladies, get the win!

[coetzergambill]

Rompies/Tananta leading 4-2 first set! keep going, ladies!

[coetzergambill]

rompies/tananta lost 46 46. they were leading with a break in both sets but couldn't keep it up! but nice fight ladies!

[coetzergambill]

Lu/Xu def. Basuki/Luzhanska 67 62 107. yayuk and tetiana played a good first set, but in the second set, yayuk was broken twice. in the decider, they were already leading 4-1 but couldn't keep it up. all in all they just made a few too many unforced errors and dind't win the important points. but yayuk played some nice points and she still got that great touch. and she looked really fit and in great shape. hope she keeps playing and that she wins some matches next time!

Amazing race by qualifier Tami Grende in Malacca Grade 4

R32 d. Tanaporn Thongsing 67(2) 61 60 in 3 hours
R16 d. (4) Anna Clarice Patrimonio (PHI) 17 yo 62 61 - Patrimonio did not shake Tami's hand in the end
QF d. (6) Sanae Ohta (JPN) 16 yo 61 60
SF vs (1) Aldila Sutjiadi (INA)

Tami's first ever SF - very good already in her 6th ITF tourney of her young career and first tourney of 2011

March 21-27, 2011 - 10K Kofu, Japan (hard outdoor) - Grace is for surely playing qualie
March 28-April 3, 2011 - 10K Nishi-Tama, Japan (hard outdoor) - Grace is for sure playing qualie

So, they will withdraw all 10Ks in Turkey eventually...

Grace & Jessy have withdrawn from Miyazaki

Wonder why they didn't follow Ayu & Vivin travelling to China

According to the Dutch coach, he wants Jessy & Grace to focus on 10Ks and see how they will fare...Yes, they withdrew Miyazaki and they will only play Kofu & Nishi-Tama 10Ks then 3x10K in Thailand then Sportama's 10Ks in Indonesia...But I think Grace will only play Sportama's 10K in Jakarta since she will have senior high school national examination after that...

Bali born from Balinese mom and Italian dad Tami Grende (13 yo, 5'8" tall) grabbed her ITF Grade 4 maiden title as qualifier in Malacca, Malaysia today...She outclassed Hsu Ching-Wen (TPE,14 yo) 6-3, 6-0

In SF Tami def. (1) Aldila Sutjiadi (INA) 7-5, 6-4

Congrats Tamiiiiii!!!
