I'm shocked that the sisters are on opposite sides of the draw again... not that it does them much good here.

Of course, the ONE time I really, really wanted Venus to land in Serena's half, and I don't get my way. Figures.

We got a Marbella rematch with Zakopalova playing S Williams. Interesting that Zvonareva has not withdrawn as of now so I take it her ankle must be ready to go. Potential Charleston rematch in the 2nd round with Lisicki and V Williams. Will be very interesting to see how the first week plays out.

Maybe this is a good time for Venus to draw Sabine... The drubbing she took in Charleston will be fresh in her mind. And I'm not sure how fit Sabine is. She's had some injury issues and may not get out of her first round match unscathed. But even IF things went Venus' way, it's not like it's clear sailing for her. There's still a lot that can go wrong.

I guess the upside is that Flavia is nowhere to be found in that section.
