Daniela's got a qualifier in the second round. In the third round she's got Ivanovic or the winner of the Vania King vs Pous-Tio match.

It's not too bad a draw although there are some decent players in qualifying. Ivanovic had a good run at Indian Wells so she'll come in feeling confident although I don't know how fit she is after she retired in Indian Wells. King's been playing pretty well this year and although Daniela's always beaten her, they've generally been close matches.

The important thing is that Daniela gets past the first match.

Post subject:  Re: Sony Ericsson Open, Miami
Yes first match is crucial to win. Anything more is a bonus, but 3rd round is a must here. Overall a pretty good draw but that doesn't mean anything when it comes to Daniela. You just know that one section of this draw will become really lightweight with some lower ranked player having a deep run .
.will be interesting to see where the upsets will come.

Post subject:  Re: Sony Ericsson Open, Miami
A reasonable enough draw in the doubles and it would be lovely if Daniela and Agnieszka can defend their title. I'd like Daniela to have a doubles match first so that she can get a bit of match practice and get used to the conditions before her singles match.

I hope Alex has a good time in Miami and that he sees Daniela win a lot of matches.

Post subject:  Re: Sony Ericsson Open, Miami
Daniela will play either U.Radwanska or K.Bondarenko in the 2nd round... :| Daniela has 2-0 record against Ula and 3-0 against Katya.
Not sure who I'd rather she play... :| I think both are potential banana skins to be honest...

I think i'd take Ula, as Katya has more weapons and Daniela beat Ula recently in Pattaya...
Author:  chungwit [ 21. March 2012 01:14 ]
Post subject:  Re: Sony Ericsson Open, Miami
That's a pretty decent opener. Daniela beat Urzsula pretty easily in Pattaya and she really hasn't done too much recently, Bondarenko hasn't been particularly great either although she beat Pennetta in Doha and Cibulkova in Dallas last year so she's had recent wins against good players.

Daniela's always beaten both of them whenever they've played and they've been pretty comfortable wins. Daniela can't be complacent and she's got to be ready to play. She's got to focus on this match and get through it.

Why did Ivanovic retire at IW?
Author:  Benji [ 21. March 2012 21:14 ]
Post subject:  Re: Sony Ericsson Open, Miami
Glute strain. Tests showed it was just inflammation rather than a tear,so she should be able to play in Miami.

Post subject:  Re: Sony Ericsson Open, Miami
Ula and Katya have gone to a 3rd set and have been playing for over two hours. Katya has hit 14 double faults..even though whoever wins will have tomo to rest, they've got to be feeling a bit tired by the time they play Daniela on Friday seeing as they've gone through 2 rounds of qualifying on top of this gruelling first rounder.

If i'm totally honest I will be estastic with a 3rd round appearance from Daniela...there's not much worse than not winning a match in either Indian Wells and Miami...please Daniela win a match!
