If they pulled out because she's tired that's a bit silly. They could have at least showed up...serena's not been well anyway and they night have retired....gr

PARIS (AP) - Slovak tennis player Daniel Hantuchova (photo) at Roland Garros in 2010 Paris has aligned its peak in the form of intrusion into the fourth round in 2002 and 2006 seasons on the fourth osemfinálové round now eligible súperky that consistently beat the other two cross-matches. Over premožiteľkou Magdalena Rybáriková the local second Round of Alyona Bondarenko of Ukraine also currently leads 2-0 (both matches trojsetové on a hard surface), against Jelena Jankovic Srbke overall score is 3:3.

"At this stage the tournament, every play well, you too nenavyberám. Of course, the Jelena I would be very happy, but should not overdo anything. Twice I beat it this year, but basically nothing - starts from scratch. I hope those that would have two recent wins with me a little brnkali the mind but it's an experienced player, it would be very difficult match," says D. Hantuchova SITA if option added: "With two trojseťáky Alyona yet - it would be a bit like the anti Wickmayer. Runs very well, a lot of returns, that her style does not fit me too. I would rather take the deer."

Carlos Cuadrado Zverenkyňa Hantuchova led the third Saturday in Yanina Wickmayer round of 7:5, 3:0 due to continuous turnover of 4:5 in the first sete brejkom against it, but a state of 4-2 in the second act, and faced three brejkbalom črtal Belgičankin to return to the scene. Finally acted. Slovak ward off all threats to service three or convincing mastery of offensive combinations on the basis of: "For this I have worked very recent months. When you play me or something comes out, I can quickly throw a lot. I know that this is so, so live tennis it should be accepted. When I was up, this may be zvrtnúť, but I am also able to address development. transgression of which therefore make the tragedy - should focus on the next ball. I think my approach such a great help."

Five former WTA Tour world rankings Hantuchova appears in the 26th renkingu position of the ten cities under Wickmayer. Although able to adjust the score of 4-0 in duels with each other. "I'm very happy with how I played. Both parties it was a very good tennis. It was while on a completely different game than in the first round against Tanasugarn, when I said that I do not to my performance or how perfekcionistka any reservations. often do not speak, but again today it was really cool. When I needed so I počínala aggressive when it was appropriate, so I kept the exchanges, even though Wickmayer is not easy because of the strikes are coming very quickly. I found a balance between the desire to be aggressive and ambition to do too many mistakes. tactically it was good, I got it šachovala the villages and when they could, so I'm hugging, but I did not do it unnecessarily from positions which required patience. The clay is just a few balls and now everything can zvrtnúť. Again, it was confirmed that the battles we are always very close. the important first set. I perceive that, after she mentally still a little gone which has given me more confidence. I think Wickmayer played against me, better than last year at Indian Wells. In the meantime, more experienced, more trusts less corrupts. Once I got her a shorter ball was over. so it was important not to lose the length of strokes, hold back her more from behind the baseline. There is in fact so charged, that fact rozstrieľa anyone."

Semifinalistka Melbourne's Australian Open 2008 vyrukovala Hantuchova with a large boom, from introduction until the end of the match vychutnávala clearly: "In the villages number two I played in the first round or in the past very well, much better than on Friday stiesňujúcej 'top five'. I know that the court itself is also great, but here I had a feeling that I get more space for me to súperku forced from sacral end of the court brief strikes pushed back, or give to the shorts. When the wall below, the court seems to be you more such change of direction of cross-training for strikes along the line."
