A good thing is that Daniela's on first whereas in the previous three slams she was on last and had to wait around all day. This time she knows when she's on so can prepare accordingly. Hopefully the weather will be decent and Daniela's fully fit and able to give her best effort.

Also, in 2010 & 2011 her best slam performance was at Roland Garros so that's nice memories to give her a bit of confidence as will beating Kuznetsova in the exhibition. If Daniela can play like she did in the Fed Cup or in Madrid then she's got a great chance but Jankovic will be tough and she's playing pretty well at the moment. A lot will depend on the conditions and how fit Daniela is.

apparently the rain stopped and we'll have the match back again, soon.
hope that Daniela can recover the momentum she had in the 2nd set before being broken!

0-40 for Daniela on Jankovic's serve. And all 3 SP's wasted 5-5 now... this is daniela

This is so disappointing, especially not to take it to a third set when Daniela had 6 set points. I really thought that Daniela had the second set when she had Jankovic at 0-40 5-4 in the second set then Jankovic plays five amazing points in a row, it really was no fucking way tennis.

I saw the match from 4-0 Daniela in the second set and Daniela was playing well with the momentum. She had a set point when she was serving at 5-1 and the match would obviously have been so different if she'd taken that but the rain came and Jankovic played a lot better after the rain delay and Daniela just couldn't get that point to win the set. the two times she served for the set she was 15-40 down both times and although she got a set point both times it would have been easier if she'd been ahead in those games and gotten to 40 first. The conditions were slower than yesterday but Daniela still had chances that she couldn't take. She could have done with the netcord going her way in the tiebreak at 5-5 (I think) but she played well to get it to 4-2 then she made errors the rest of the way although Daniela saved the first two MPs with some good tennis but it seemed like she was desperate to win the point early and that resulted in errors later on in the tiebreak.

Get revenge in the doubles and a good run there can restore a bit of confidence. Playing in cold, damp conditions on the slow clay haven't helped Daniela the last two tournaments and her best performances on clay have been indoors at the Fed Cup and the warmth and altitude of Madrid which would be quicker. Time to get on the nice sunny fast grass courts.

UM,chungwit,we don't do nice and sunny in Britain anymore-currently hammering it down with rain at the moment.

Daniela played a very good match up to 5-0 in the second. I'm going to erase the rest of the match from my memory.

I was there at the match. Am in mourning.

What on earth happened between her and Bernandes? The twitter reports were most entertaining,apparently Daniela was giving him a double helping of sass!

Daniela Hantuchova:," United shame especially the second set, in which I had a lot of chances. Before the rain break I received in super rhythm, played me very well. Then it has been so, but in any Geme I had the chance. 5:4 for the state in which it has been three setbaloch Jelena played very good services and backhands, the team could not do anything. Overall, however, the second set in my hands. I'm disappointed that I did not receive it, if I won the tie-break, it could be in the third set fully open. On the court, I felt fine, arm held out. On the first round it was a tough ticket, because Jelena is an experienced toy, but I fought until the last moment and I believe it still can win. Unable to it, such as sports. For state explicitly 5:0 Jelena played unfairly. I did not come off the bench and not have zaservovala. Between each gave me very little time to prepare myself for strikes. It may have been angry about the status, but this is not done."

"Great pity especially the second set, in which I had a lot of chances. Before the rain I received in super rhythm and played very well. Then, although it was no longer the same, but in any Game after the rain I had the chance. The second set was certainly in my hands and then it would be very open, so I am disappointed. I think I could win," said Daniela Hantuchova at a conference telephone for Slovak news agency.

"Great pity especially the second set, in which I had a very good opportunity. Before the rain I received in super rhythm and played very well. Then, although it was no longer the same, but in any Geme I had the opportunity. The second set we was in my hands and then it would be very open, so I am disappointed. I think I could win," Hantuchova said and added: "The game I really enjoyed, although the first round it was very difficult lot. Jelena is very experienced, it was open and the last time I even believed in tajbrejku that I can succeed. At my favorite villages, which is more intimate type, it was a nice match and the fans have something to look at, enjoyed it. Unfortunately, the end was not in my favor. Such a tennis ... Sometimes you can put everything into it, and yet the result is not to the liking."

The discussions with the referee Carlos Bernardes Slovakian said: "She played there downright unfairly. Yet I did not come off the bench or a surplice already zaservovala. Between each took only some 5 seconds. Did not have time to prepare myself for strikes. Jelena probably be was angry about the status, but this is not done."

Hantuchova during the regular season showcasing the grass in Birmingham, Hertogenbosch and Wimbledon. The clay court phase retrospectively noted: "I appreciated that there can ever be. Because I know how I felt last year when I had to watch Roland Garros on TV. Marrakech or counting, it was impossible for the Fed Cup. Madrid was great. Perhaps in the context of the game with Kanepi can I read that I warmed up well. Rome I never fail to Halep said that such a game can not play, but she was finally up in the semifinals. On two of the three major clay tournament I had a difficult lot. Sometimes it takes a little more luck."
