I think it's a toss up.

**beneitpedro** · 07-15-2011, 05:29 PM

There is nothing I love more than seeing Daniella Dominikovic as a seed in the qualifying draw for a WTA level tournament.

On another note: If Elena Moo Moo doesn't qualify here....................

As long as "BYE" doesn't push her off the sidewalk as a Baku Municipal bus goes past, she should be okay.

Arefyeva's pretty good (in Tennis Elbow, at least). Would keep an eye on her.

**beneitpedro** · 07-19-2011, 04:14 PM

Patiofurniture just beat Valeria Solovieva 7-5, 6-4 with 25 dfs! She's too young to know how to properly tank.

**Intockatt** · 07-19-2011, 05:49 PM

Yes, she's a top 10 player and Australian Open finalist in my version.
