Bad draw for Ana...

Really? I think bottom half have potentially more dangerous players..

btw, any word on men's draw?

**tramdoctorsss** · 02-02-2009, 04:53 AM

Very dangerous 1st round for Ana. Petra is much better than her current ranking indicates...

Haven't seen mens draw yet...

**CymnMaync** · 02-02-2009, 04:55 AM

Bad draw for Ana...

You think so Suliso? If I'm a top player tiering down for an event, this is the way I would hope a draw would play out.

**Leczyslaw** · 02-02-2009, 05:00 AM

There is article about the draws

Ernests playing Novak in first round..

**tramdoctorsss** · 02-02-2009, 05:05 AM
