[AjdeNate!]

Good luck Kim, Maria, Mary (allez!), Alexandra (win a match please), .......

 

[Jordan.]

 

[lizchris]

I wonder if the bottom half of the draw is being held up because Lindsay has informed she has withdrawn or she has given indication that she will withdraw?

 

[Dokic#1]

Kim Clijsters will be cruising to a Us open Crowd with the type of draws she is getting...Good practise for the new number 1.

Tammy vs Mary Pierce (FRA)

I think this is first meeting.
C'mon Tammy.

[Happy Guy]

Thanks!

Very very nice draw for Alyona! First match probably against Pascual, followed by Maleeva and Sugiyama...Davenport is in her quarter too!

Go Alyona!

[Venus Forever]

How many Wild Cards are there??

I know Angela Haynes and Viktoriya Kutuzova are Wild Cards, but anyone else??

Did Mary Pierce and Saori Obata get in on their own ranking?

 

[ex hopman]

Akiko Morigami told me that Saori got a WC for MD.

 

[ys]

Who is Victoriya Kutuzova?

 

[Venus Forever]

Kutuzova is, I think, 14 years old or something. She's very young, but I hear she is very, very, very good. Hard hitter.

At least, that's what I have heard.

You know the TBE will know something.

 

[Rocketta]

how many rounds is this tournament? 16 bye's is a lot.

At least, that's what I have heard.

Perhaps, the information on her country is wrong, I don't know such Russian player.. Maybe Belarussian? Ukrainian?

 

[Venus Forever]

Yeah, I thought she was Ukrainian. I do think they have it wrong.

Good luck Kata
