No break points faced vs. Peng. Wow! Pretty darn good. :coool:
Dani's form is such that she should have a good shot at beating gorgeous Georges. Fingers crossed!
I don't want to run too far with this yet. But do you agree that so far in '12, we have seen quite a bit of unDanielian stuff happen? Serena and Kim at Brisbane, a final in the 1st tourney of the season, all these 3 set Houdini acts, a successful title defense, a 3 set win in a final, now Vika withdrawing? After all these years of so little going right, is the moon in the 7th house and Jupiter aligned with Mars? Can it last :?: Here's hoping. ;)


Let's Go, Daniela!

Good things seem to happen for Daniela after an interval of 5 years-2002,2007,maybe now 2012? :)

Goerges is playing amazing, Daniela needs to hang tough 3-4..which is what she does! 6-4 Daniela :)

She's playing string and steady...good stuff so far...0-2..comon daniela break back..0-3 Daniela can turn this set around I know it..

Goerges hitting winners all over the place...0-4 oh dear...Julia's toilet break really helped Goerges...:(

Everything Goerges hits is turning to gold..somehow Daniela get's one break back 6-4 1-4...I still believe she can get this set..2-4 this game is crucial...comon daniela...i didnt realise Goerges was as good as this...2-5...3-5...comon now's the time to break..so close but Daniela had two non-consecutive break points but didn't take them

6-4 3-6

Daniela serving first in the final set...great match

Daniela will need a good start here, Goerges is streaky so Daniela must not give Julia confidence..

I think overall so far Julia has been the better player...yep Daniela get's broken 0-1

This match is so important for Daniela, if she wins she's well in the top 20, if not she stays 21..AHHH...NOTHING'S GOING RIGHT.. :( :( :(

Hmm, daniela shouldn't have taken a break, she was doing well, she doesn't need to break her rhythm.

Not the best start, broken and playing very tentative now.

Oh, god, daniela is being toyed around with :oops:

This is very similar to how Ivanovic plays Daniela. Hope daniela can fight.

She hasn't done it for a while, so why now???

And it's always the way if an opponent goes for toilet it helps them but if Daniela does it it screws her over :( This match is so important...

I think this might be pretty much over. Daniela has all the right to get frustrated and the german is just flowing with confidence. I really thought she would take this...

YES Daniela breaks 6-4 3-6 1-3 hold please...she does..just...2-3 comon let's get this back on serve...2-4 that was a massive game..urgh..if daniela doesn't hold here she's screwed..

I can't believe how similar Goerges plays to Ivanovic...it's like carbon copy...

6-4 3-6 3-4 PLEASE BREAK comon...

Goerges holds to love 6-4 3-6 3-5 SUCKS

Goerges serves out to love DAMM
