We will try as best we can, and hopefully the three points should be somehow 'naškriabeme '. girl about to be behind a very good winter training. Maybe a little bit cool, until coming here, perhaps during their' Sokna '. Our advantage is the home, fans can help us." Old-New unit SR explained and its incapacity for which serving last week to mixed doubles second round at Melbourne Australian Open: "This was an allergic shock about some food. There is nothing pleasant. pass some more tests to find out from what it was. I would certainly not want such a thing is once again experience. I Dopriala But a few days off and I'm already cool."

Above leads Zheng 2-0, and Peng overcome to date each other in a single battle: "All are very tough perfekcionistky with extremely nadrilovanými strikes from both sides. To them it is based, hard against them is looking for something - a good move, nekazia, no significant weaknesses . But these are also a bit one-way 'robots', that their system is easy to read." Cibulkova said: "Makám full week longer, I run in and pretty soon after the start of joint training is a good atmosphere. It's in my imagination, maybe it so will this weekend. With all three I Chinawoman 0-1 record, but mostly it was a long time. I'm elsewhere in the meantime, they also. They have always been very dangerous, and now apparently have good form. You never know what to expect from them, sometimes play incredible matches. It will be a big challenge and I hope viewers will come to encourage us."

"Against any of the present Chinese tenistiek Finally, I still played. Many of them do not know about. Súperky in the absence of its best hráčok get into a position where they have nothing to lose. They can only be surprised and very uncomfortable. My favorite and we hope that this role and manage," said D. Cibulkova. "Probably it will take several gemov until you get used to playing súperiek who do not know. We have something to imitate them in practice. On the contrary, they certainly have us well-read, as the rest of their advantage. I hope that we will use the chance which now given the situation we have,"noted D. Hantuchova.

You've really got to favour Slovakia in this tie given that China are missing their best players and Slovakia have home advantage.

Not to put any pressure on the Slovak team, but this really should be a doddle.

6-0

Well done Danka. Some really good Tennis. Although she looks REALLY skinny once again...

The National Tennis Centre should really get some new Tennis Courts. The ones in my local Tennis Club (120 biggest city in Switzerland) do look better than these.

I'm starting to think that China aren't quite as good without Li & Zheng.

Daniela was never troubled, she dictated most of the points and she had too much skill, power and experience for Zhang. The difference in class showed in the score. The match only lasted 48 minutes.

I think Dominika will beat Zhang easily enough in the third rubber and Daniela may sit the fourth match and Rybarikova or Kucova will play instead. We'll see what happens.

"The second half started súperka Set uncomfortable 'bite' and I am glad that I have not used the suffix after brejkbaloch at 4:1 and 5:2 and finally manage the state through 0:30 in my administration to victory - exactly what the situation is, which sometimes may break and zVRT. Today's game was not easy. Číňaniek confirmed the advantage of which lies in the fact that they can play without barriers, and those of us knows much more than we do about them. For example, Chan, I saw only once in recent Australian Open, which received Stosur in three sets. The situation is complicated by the fact to me that the ľaváčku. I am very happy that I won, it will boost my confidence," said the first reaction has on the court Dominika Cibulkova.

"Dominica is a very good toy and reminded of why last year got into Roland Garros Grand Slam semifinal. Confirmed the role of favorite well thanks to better cope with critical moments in the second ending set. It turned out that he has much more experience in such important matches, and helped her and the audience. Súperka could rely on quality service. After the first game I realized that I somehow changed tactics - tried to push a toy home from the base line, but failed me to such an extent that I took the initiative and possibly induced turnover. Despite a late arrival into the theater I was physically manage the meeting, but my performance was not enough simply to Dominika," acknowledged Chan Sin-jun.

"I am very happy of how I manage and follow up the success of Dominikin. Nevynútených I did a few mistakes, which does not live in my routine. I even managed a good service, I moved. I really like how my game was released today . Thanks are also excellent audience. "It's nice to play, knowing that in case the state of our viewers the confidence and power supply," noted even in villages Daniela Hantuchova.

"Daniela really took place today, a very good match, what about me, certainly not true. Súperka perfectly administered and returnovala, I rarely ever got into these exchanges and I have shown a majority, too impetuous. I did a lot of forced errors and nevynútených. Many of the what I have before entering the farmstead itself to be unable to meet me. With the master fails, I still talk about the Sun, if you give a chance again, I will try to retrace my Cibulkove against Saturday's feeble performance and maintain our team's chance of overall success. Dominika I now watch, but it is difficult to compare with Daniela, because both play quite a different style," said Zhang Šuai.

Captain Slovak Matej Liptak said: "The opening two matches and gemoch end Dominika It showed that we went to the finals onward dvorec slightly nervous of the role of absolute favoritiek. Given the developments in the Chinese team came under pressure from expectations of their surroundings, and the media fans. dominica like endings in the second Set was still sort of block from the Melbourne battle with King, which was similar to control, but now finally the state last Gemela 0:30 - fortunately - worked and demonstrated some of its best tennis during Sat Daniela their súperke practically not allow anything to be made a minimum of errors, well administered and returnovala. Both our toy behaved very responsibly and concentrated, and I am glad to handle. We have three mečbaly to overall success. until a third point, we must not relax."
