Shame about Guille,he was a tremendous player to watch-I particularly enjoyed his two finals against Nadal in 2005(Monte Carlo+Rome). Too bad his shoulder injury wrecked his career. |

Daniela taking the Marat Safin approach to coaching this season.
4 coaches in 6 months is an impressive effort! ![pray :pray:](./images/smilies/anbet.gif) |

Daniela was watching the semi-final in the company of Larry Passos,who coached Gustavo Kuerten to 3 French Open titles,and has been a long-time admirer of Andy Murray.
Good to see Daniela watching two of my faves in action! ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif) |

This is unsurprising news. Hogstedt was working with Kohlschreiber in Monte Carlo and I don't see how a coach can work both WTA and ATP schedules. ![Neutral :|](./images/smilies/icon_neutral.gif) |

The Machiavellian side of my mind suggests that Daniela never had any intention of playing here. It would have been very awkward to return to the city whose tennis academy she has so recently ditched,not to mention the residence of her former coaches. Therefore she priced herself out of the market s... |

Nalby starts his European clay-court season by beating PHM 6-4 3-6 6-3 with a typical Nalby performance-when he was good,he was very,very good and when he was bad,he was the racket-throwing,bad-tempered,swearing idiot I so enjoy watching. :roll: Some of his FH and BH returns were absolutely sick BTW... |

So glad I didn't follow this match live,I think I'd have ended up throwing the computer out of the window!
Anyway,it's clay and it's a win. If Daniela isn't playing well,all you can ask as a fan is that she fights to the bitter end,and she did that. Congrats Danka! ![bouncing :bounce:](./images/smilies/bounce.gif) |

just watched the match between Daniela vs Cetkovska and I really don't think Daniela is enjoying tennis at the moment. She doesn't smile at all, she's ridicously serious. The only thing that concerned me was the way she fled the court after the losses to Cornet. I mean she really gave Usain Bolt a ... |

I saw "Killer" Cahill working with Verdasco in Indian Wells,so unfortunately he's not available.
Interestingly Panichi is still listed as Daniela's fitness coach,even though she's been working with Pat Etcheberry this year. ![Don't know :dunno:](./images/smilies/ka.gif) |

Yep,Hogstedt is now listed as Kohlschreibers coach on his ATP Player Profile. The plot thickens....
And this will wind martin up,but she already had a good coach and decided to get rid of him. ![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif) |

just continue to support Daniela regardless of her results and hope she will turn this bad patch of her career around, nothing more you can do. Well said. I wonder what happens to her coaching situation now? She was working with Thomas Hogstedt up until this tournament,and while I'd like to see Dan... |
