 no chance to get out of the nether Fed Cup echelons until next year then.
I actually thought they would win vs. Belarus. Hanna and Sofia obviously aren't ready for Fed Cup life without Åsa yet  |

So...
Svensson bt. Llagostera 62 64 
Svensson lost to Kremer 57 61 57
Arvidsson lost to Rodionova 36 36 
Nooni bt. Johansson  , beat someone whose name i just forgot LOL, and lost in sf to Rodionova 46 62 76
I heard Sofia was having problems of motivation... she should skip tennis after RG and comeback until Sopot or something... I mean... she is really having a horrible season.
Svensson won over Singla in Strasbourg 75 64  |

Sofia
Poor Hanna she did not make the draw but was fairly close. The way she is going she might make the Wimbledon Qualifying Draw?
Caserta $25K (Hanna Nooni) - She beat O'Donoghue 76(2) 62 in round 1. She then beat Foldenyi 60 63. In quarter finals she beat Laura Pous Tio 76(4) 62 . She is now in the semi finals against Katerina Bohmova.

Have people noticed this...
Arvidsson is top 120
Nooni is top 230
Svensson soon in top 230
Wolfbrandt back to top 300
If Maria keeps doing well in the next few challengers and has a good Stockholm (like qualifying so could move in ALT list)
We could have 4 SWEDES in US Open qualies?
HEJA SWEDEN |

Well done all the Swedes! 
Anyone know why Sofia is struggling lately? She lost to Liggan 36 36 at Los Gatos, a match she would normally win
