Nadia eager to Improve form

Nadia Banaszek practising on the clay courts of Helsinki​

Belarussian Nadia Banaszek is eager for the start of the FWTT event in Helsinki. The young Belarussian is seeded eighth for the event, and faces wild card Samantha Kraston in the opening round.
''I really can't wait to play, clay is my favorite surface but so far my results on it have been well below par. But it was very tough to try and back up after a extroadinary Wimbledon performance (where she reached the Quarter Finals as a qualifier) So naturally I was going to have a down period afterward, but hopefully I have past that phase and can return to playing Tennis that I know I am capable of.''

Banaszek will be playing doubles with new found friend, Rachel-Anne Fleischmann of Germany.
''It's really good to play with someone that has alot of experience at this level. She always gives you pointers about your game, tactics, etc which helps out on court and gives you a confidence boost.
We played doubles together last week in Sopot, and we reached the Semi Finals which was really impressive considering we have never played or even met before.''​

statement from Rachel-Anne Flesichmann about her first round match against Rossie Ribbons

i´m a bit sad about my draw, i´m finally seeded in a tournament and then i got the strongest player i could get.
i lost last week to her, and she played very great match,
she is on a good run, and it will be hard for me to beat her this time.
