Sad.

Daniela seemed to lose the zip on her shots during the second set,and Sveta was able to out-muscle her from the baseline. The twin demons of tightness and unforced errors reared their ugly head.

Fine tournament nonetheless. The point to win the opening set....

Tough luck Daniela. Overall, great tournament with many pluses. Well done.

She said that she had lesson from her previous career's matches. I couldn't notice that, unfortunately.


She still wants success so very,very badly,hence too much pressure on herself. Still it's better this way than the alternative(see Nalbandian,David).
