The first 2 rounds should be as easy as cake for Daniela, however Kleybanova is a very tricky opponent in the QF .
If she reaches SF an opponent like Schiavone , Kirilenko or even Radwanska can put Daniela on the line but I do believe that Daniela is ready to win her 4th title

Its a decent enough draw for Daniela, made easier by the withdrawels of both Stosur and Wickmayer. I agree, first two rounds should be easy enough (although Morita has had some ok matches this week), but the quarter-final would be particularly tough against, most likely, Kleybanova. Having seen what she played like during the North-American hard-court season I think Daniela could struggle to beat her, but its definately possible. Beyond that the draw is alot better, with the worst opponant probably being Cirstea. Its just a shame Daniela drew Kleybanova in the quarters instead of Pavlyuchenkova, Dushevina or Bammer.

I'd expect Daniela to be able to get through the first couple of rounds easily enough. Kleybanova's the likely quarter-final opponent and she beat Daniela at Wimbledon last year and had a good run in Toronto, so she's got to be respected as an opponent. But apart from Toronto, her recent results haven't been that great. Kleybanova generally beats who she should beat but usually loses to the good players.

This tournament is a great opportunity for Daniela so hopefully she takes it.



Daniela Hantuchova is right about everything.

I wouldn't discount Srebotnik as a threat here. If she shows the form to get by her first two opponents, she could trouble Daniela in the quarterfinals.

Daniela is currently 1-1 on the 1st set
She hold her serve easily and had 3BP on Morita's game but with 2 balls hitting the net and falling on Daniela's side of the court and a winner from Morita , she held too.

Daniela: 0-15, 15-15, 15-30, 30-30, 30-40, Deuce , BP , Deuce , BP , Deuce, BP, Game Morita, 1-2
Morita:15-0 , 15-15, 15-30, 15-40, 30-40, Game Hantuhova, 2-2
Daniela:15-0, 15-15, 30-15, Ace#1 40-15, Game Hantuchova, 3-2
Morita:15-0, 15-15, 30-15, 40-15, 40-30, DF#1 - Deuce, DF#2 - BP, Deuce, Adv, DF#3 - Deuce, Ace#2 - Adv, Game Morita, 3-3 It's amazing how Morita makes 3DF and Daniela can't win the game. Morita isn't showing a great tennis but Daniela is making too much UE
Daniela:0-15, 0-30, DF#1 0-40, 15-40, Game Morita, 3-4 Morita wins the game with 2 UE from Daniela and a good winner to close the game
Morita:0-15, 0-30, 0-40, 15-40, 30-40, Game Hantuchova, 4-4 Daniela won 2 out of 9 BP
Daniela:15-0, 30-0, 40-0, Game Hantuchova , 5-4 Daniela wins a love game with her #2 Ace on her 2nd serve down to the T.
Morita:0-15, 15-15, 30-15, 30-30, 40-30, Deuce, SP, Deuce, SP#2, GAME , 1ST SER DNAIELA HANTUCHOVA 6-4

A very unconvincing 1st set from Daniela . Inconsistent and with a lot of errors. I'm hoping they'll show the stats of the match in the end.
On this 1st set Daniela had 58% of 1st serves winning 67% of them and 46% on her 2nd serve. She won 3 out of 11 BP and Morita won 2 out of 6BP

2 SET
Daniela:0-15, 0-30, 0-40, 15-40, Game Morita, 0-1 Morita is getting used to Daniela's 2nd serve and had a couple of nice winners on this game due to the fact that Daniela hit 1 out of 5 1st serves
Morita:15-0, 15-15, 15-30, 15-40, 30-40, Deuce, BP, Deuce, BP, Game Hantuchova, 1-1 Morita's 1st serve don't pass 160km/h and Daniela isn't taking risks
Daniela:15-0, 30-0, 40-0, 40-15, Game Hantuchova, 2-1 Daniela served better and that helped a lot to win this game easily
Morita:15-0, 15-15, 15-30, 30-30, 40-30, Deuce, Adv, Deuce, Adv, Deuce, Adv, Game Morita, 2-2 Morita did some very bad shots but Daniela didn't took advantage because she isn't playing agressive
Daniela:0-15, 15-15, 30-15, 40-15, Game Hantuchova, 3-2 Finally some signs of the nice Daniela. Made 3 winners and played agressive making Morita running all court
Morita:15-0, 15-15, 30-15, 40-15, Game Morita, 3-3
Daniela:0-15, 15-15, 15-30, 15-40, 30-40, Game Morita, 3-4 Morita played well in this game but Daniela needs to find her 1st serve, she's hitting 43% of 1st serves and only winning 56% when that happens
Morita:15-0, 15-15, 15-30, 30-30, 40-30, Game Morita, 3-5 The same story. Daniela is making errors and Morita is playing wisely. Daniela will serve to stay in the set
Daniela:0-15, 15-15, 30-15, 40-15, 40-30, Deuce, SP, Deuce, Adv, Game Hantuchova, 4-5 This is getting boring
Morita:15-0, 15-15(amazing point), 30-15, 30-30, 30-40, Deuce, SP#2, GAME , 2ND SET AYUMI MORITA 6-4

This was worst than 1st set. A boring match, Daniela is making too much errors , she isn't taking risks and she's being quite passive.
She had 45% of 1st serves winning 64% and winning 47% on the 2nd serve .. Won 1 out of 5 BP and Morita won 2/5.

Daniela lost the second set, having a break point while Morita was serving for the set... oh, danka... really, a 3 setter against Morita?
