Ashley may have lost her singles match (and as a reminder to a #61), but she and Maria are still quite alive in doubles taking their qtr final moving on to the...
I agree with you Bri it is very good start for Ashley. She had match point against Gagliardi but couldn't quite close the deal. She didn't roll over in the...
I have not seen any write-up, but Ashley & Maria Salerni went out in straight sets to Ashley / Spears in NZ today. There is bound to be another warm-up prior...
There is another warm up but I'm pretty sure Ashley isn't playing. I can't believe they lost to Ashley and Spears. Should have happened. (Ashley is limited on...
While I had thought Ashley might be involved in another of the warm-up events leading to the Australian Open, this is not so. While Danny's earlier comments on...
With the points Ashley accumulated in New Zealand, I don't think she will have to qualify Although qualifying may have been more valuable to Ashley this time...
Ashley is now 102 in the world in Singles. You go girl. That should put her in the main draw of the Australian Open. She needs to go to the third round at...
http://www.ausopen.org/en_AU/scores/draws/us/index.html In the first round she will play Anousjka Van Exel (NED). If she beats Anousjka she will have to play...
Wow!! Run through the women's draw for the qualifiers and it's a who's-who. Many of the players Ashley has played against in 2002 as well as doubled with, and...
Ashley can beat all any of those you mention and has beaten Rao and Ashley already. ... From: rowlandgoodman [mailto:no_reply@yahoogroups.com] Sent: Wednesday,...
I thought she would make the main draw. Obviously, I missed my calculations by just a smidge. Looking at her draw, she should get in. ... From: brianna575...
The main draw is calculated by the rankings 3 weeks before the Aussie Open. At that time, Ashley wasn't ranked high enough to get in without qualifying. ... ...
I was thinking it was only a week for some dumb reason Thanks Eric ... From: Eric Lord [mailto:christianmatte@...] Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2003...
... If you look at the acceptance lists for $10k - $75k tournaments, you will see that they are published some weeks in advance, and that they do not change...
The Australian Open site has two articles and one photo covering Ashley's first round qualifying match. That didn't happen by accident. Note the interesting...
Unfortunately, Ashley lost her 2nd round qualifying match to Sunitha Rao 6-2, 4-6, 6-3. Down 5-3 in the third, she had 6 break points to get back on serve,...
No way Rao should have beat her either. She obviously wasn't on her game with that many unforced errors, especially against Rao. I saw her get down against ...
Please don't put down Sunitha Rao. She's a good player, who has a good attitude. The way to beat Ashley is to put her under pressure. The last May her range...
There are now three photos of Ashley this week on the Australian Open site (plus one link that doesn't work). Judging from the photos of Thursday, it seems...
I seriously doubt Ashley is playing in Juniors. She indicated last year at the U.S. Open that she was done with Juniors. In a few months, she can play as many...
Sorry Rowland. Not putting Sunitha down, or not intending to intentionally. However, Ashley shouldn't have lost to her, no way, no how. You are right about...
One of those pictures is from Warm ups and not a match. (The least flattering one.) There are four pictures up now. I could get to all four. One was from...
... Ashley's having difficulty playing under pressure was evident in the third round of singles at Wimbledon 2001. There are a number of problems. One is...
Good points. Maybe I should have said when she was younger and not expected to win. Then the pressure was different. She even talked about that in the...
Hey all, A shame that Ashley lost, but Sunita, (as Rowland says) she is a most capable young player. Having said this, Webb (Canadian, eh) beat Sunita and in...
Of course Vanessa Webb played singles 5 tournaments in the UK last year (three $25k and two WTA tournaments). It's a good idea to get a broad base of...
Don't get me wrong. Ashley will have a strong year. She does have some more to work on however and she is still restricted for another four months. Her coach...
