Karolina vs Kristyna :sobbing:
Gavrilova vs Stosur

What a draw. :lol:

 

[RookiePundit]

Both drawn by Bára. She even said she was doing the draw only once before, last year Birmingham(?) and drew Kerber - Safarova first round. So she was like never again

 

[aerosmash]

When will first round matches begin? Sunday or Monday?

 

[goldenlox]

Kasatkina needs to skip these kinds of events. But pliskova/pliskova is good

Why. You saw how disastrous Stuttgart went...

Why. You saw how disastrous Stuttgart went...

Thats probably why she is here. But losing her 1st match at tournaments is the problem, just in general. She lost to Kenin in Miami and told her coach her arms were shaking against McHale in Charleston. Then Rybarikova. Thats her last 3 first matches at her last 3 events

 

[Team Mugu]

why are Pliskova and Kvitova are even playing here when the women's first round in Madrid starts at the 6 & 7 in May?

 

[RookiePundit]

Because it is only WTA event to play at home for them. There are 8 Czechs in main draw and 9 more in qualification (only 3 still alive though). Only Krejčíková (still czech no.9, probably till Nürnberg) plays Rabat qualification.

That being said if Karolína makes Stuttgart final, withdrawal might be logical, but after the draw it became really special kind of decision.

Only tournament at home I guess. Plus Petra lives in Prague, so I'm sure she'd like to play in front of her home crowd...

Thanks. I will still be surprised if Kro wouldn't withdraw from this event after reaching Stuttgart's final.
