Go Ashley at the U.S. Open

ptkten · Aug 22, 2003

Ashley drew a qualifier in the 1st round and then has Zvonareva in the second round.

Hopefully she'll be able to win at least a round here, but Zvonareva will probably be too tough at this point.

good luck Ash

Good Luck Ashley, i hope that elbow is somewhat healed.

She drew probably the most difficult qualifier, Vera Douchevina. Bad match-up for Ashley, as Vera hits the ball so hard.

Hope she can pull this one out, because Vera is very talented

Good luck Ashley!!

i say Ashley gets to 4th round losing to #1 Kim Clijsters, maybe a bit too positive, but we'll see

Ashley d. Douchevina 6-4, 6-2

First career main draw U.S. Open win, I thought she looked really good!

Congrats Ashley

GO ASHLEY!! :bounce:

Congratulations Ash!!! Great job

keep up the good form and you'll beat Zvonareva for sure

That was a surprisingly easy win for Ashley over Vera Douchevina. But beating Vera Zvonareva is a different story. Although if Ashley plays well she has a real chance to spring the upset.

Atleast Ashley has her first U.S. Open win under her belt.

And that has to be a relief to her.

Ashley has also committed to the Doubles and Mixed Doubles tournament..

In the Doubles she will play together with Argentinian Gisela Dulko against Carly Gullickson and Sarah Taylor, both from the U.S.

In the Mixed Doubles she will play with Alex Bogomolov Junior against Eleni Daniilidou from Greece and Chris Haggard from South Africa..

Ashley lost :sad:

but she put up a good fight and she was too cute when she won her game in set three :hearts:

good luck in doubles Ash

I think this was a great tournament for Ashley considering her lack of preparation, she showed her usual fighting spirit but got too tired at the end.

Good luck in the doubles!

Ashley also lost her match in doubles, with her partner Gisela Dulko they lost 7-6(5) 6-2 :sad:

Go Ashley at the U.S. Open
