This match could be really close and exciting.
They are tied 1-1 in head-to-head, but have not played since 1999!!

Meilen is unseeded but ranked 39; Sugiyama is seeded 21.

Who will win and make the third round to play Chakvetadze/Szavay?

They both defeated their opponents 63 64; Meilen beat Oprandi and Sugi beat Birnerova.

[Umami]

Meilen in 2. For sure.

 

[AJZ.]

Hoping for Ai in 3
But the victory today didn't seem convincing...

 

[NyCPsU]

love em both but gotta root for and think meilen is gonna take this one

 

[Harju.]

Love both but I hope Meilen wins!
She's #35 now. If she wins this one, she'd most prolly break her career high rank this week

 

[CrossCourt~Rally]

TU in 2 close sets :bounce:

 

[Goai]

I hope Ai, maybe in 3.

 

[urklerlay]

this one is tough, since I like both players alot. However, Ai has had great success already, and it would be awesome to see Meilen do well, after all these years of grinding it out on the tour.

Go Meilen!

Love them both, but I really want to see Meilen come through.

could u imagine if meilen is seeded for wimbledon :hearts:

That would be great...
Eh, I'm torn, but you guys all I know I always root for Sugi no matter who she plays against :lol:
Ai's has an okay year so far, and a 3R here would be just great for her confidence going onto grass

 

[HotSpot]

Ai in two

I really want Meilin to win this. Her story is really touching to me. I want her to be on Fed Cup.

 

[LudwigDvorak]

What's her story?

 

[Eclipsed]

Tu 7-5, 6-4

I think this will be a tough, long match. Go Tu!
