Projected seeding: 1-Caroline Wozniacki 2-Vera Zvonareva 3-Kim Clijsters 4-Venus Williams 5-Samantha Stosur 6-Francesca Schiavone 7-Jelena Jankovic 8-Victoria Azarenka 9-Li Na 10-Shahar Peer 11-Justine Henin 12-Agnieszka Radwanska 13-Nadia Petrova 14-Maria Sharapova, 15-Marion Bartoli 16-Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 17-Aravane Rezai 18-Maria Kirilenko 19-Ana Ivanovic 20-Kaia Kanepi 21-Yanina Wickmayer 22-Flavia Pennetta 23-Svetlana Kuznetsova 24-Alisa Kleybanova 25-Petra Kvitova 26-Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez 27-Alexandra Dulgheru 28-Daniela Hantuchova 29-Dominika Cibulkova 30-Andrea Petkovic 31-Lucie Safarova 32-Tsvetana Pironkova World No.21 Ana Ivanovic is in doubt with an abdominal injury that forced her to retire from the Hopman Cup. World No.4 Serena Williams has withdrawn with an foot injury, No.9 Elena Dementieva retired at the end of 2010 and No.27 Zheng Jie withdrew with a wrist injury. If any further players withdraw with an injury, then World No.36 Alona Bondarenko will move into the seedings, however she is under an injury cloud as well after withdrawing from her title defence at the Hobart Open. The next player in line to be promoted to a seed after that is No.38 Julia Goerges, who moves in before No.37 Agnes Szavay who has withdrawn with an injury. |

Providing she's fit it's actually a pretty darn good draw. If she can get to 3rd round then she could take vika out. Would be nice for dani vs li rematch and for dani to get revenge. But first she gotta get there. Don't know much about kulilova apart her awesome quarter final run in dubai last year where she beat kirilenko and kuzzy. She's definitely a fighter so if daniela's gotta really focus in round one. |

It's a good draw but what really matters is Daniela's health. If she is fit, she will not have problems reaching third round. We'll see.... |

I don't really think she is able to take Azarenka out right now... But like THOMAS said... If Daniela is healthy, she won't have troubles to get in 3R and we will see what happens then. Good luck! |

It's a decent enough draw. A lot depends on Daniela's health and fitness because she's not really fully fit and she's not had a full warm-up so it's difficult to know what level her form is. The achilles injury, even if she's recovered from it, would have truncated her training and warm-up for this. Kulikova had a few good wins in Dubai last year, like eddy said, and she beat Kleybanova at Wimbledon in 2009 but she hasn't done too much else. If Daniela's anywhere near her best she should win. Sprem did beat Daniela at Amelia Island just before Daniela went out injured with her stress fracture, so Sprem can beat an unfit Daniela, but a healthy Daniela should have too much for Sprem. Daniela thrashed Scheepers in Seoul in 2009 and Scheepers hasn't beaten any good players since, except perhaps Dulko. The first couple of rounds are pretty reasonable but Azarenka will be very tough in the third round. Hopefully Daniela's fit because if she is, she should get through the first couple of rounds, but any opponent has to be respected and she has to beat Kulikova. I'll feel a lot better with Daniela through the first round. Liptak, "Hantuchova has acceptable ticket" Reuters, 01/14/2011 16:22, Tennis, Talk (0) Daniela Hantuchova is acceptable rival in the 1st round of the Australian Open, thinks her coach Matt Liptak. Coach Slovakian tennis player Daniela Hantuchova expressed satisfaction by lot Australian Open, which in its first round of awarding a rival Russia Regina Kulikovovú. Matej Liptak believes his zverenka until the early struggles in Melbourne fully recovers from injury and left Achilles tendon in the season opening Grand Slam will be able to give full power. "I think Daniela is quite acceptable lot. Kulikovová a toy that he has made quite a decent scalps when Vychytil day, can be dangerous. I believe that Daniela will be able to make outright performance, the leg will be fine and that build on their experience. It is important to any as soon as got into the rhythm of wrestling due to the fact that the injury could not have played many matches," said Liptak. Hantuchova withdrew because of injury to participate in the WTA tournament in Brisbane, Sydney, losing in the first round with the Spaniard Martinez Sanchez. @ google translation. |
