Unbelievable tournament for Dominika Cibulkova! She is getting
better every tournament and ON CLAY she is Slovak No.1 already. My
guess is that Dominika would beat Daniela on clay without losing a set
- let's wait for Roland Garros...
Dominika is short - opposite to Daniela - but her moving on the
court is one of the best on the Tour - opposite to Daniela...She has a
potential to go up in the rankings, the question is how far? She was
able to beat Venus - opposite to Daniela whose score against Venus is
0:9 (one set in nine matches).
And now she is playing in the final against top seed Maria
Sharapova. Maria is a big favourite, but on clay her position is not
as strong as on hard or grass courts. I guess Dominika has a chance to
beat Maria in today's final. Maria has some advantages like she had
day off yesterday, while Dominika had a tough match against Cornet
(6:2, 2:6, 6:4), so Dominika might be a little tired. If she losses,
never mind, there are going to be another chances in other matches,
finals, and matches against top players, including Maria Sharapova.
Dominika, POĎME, GO DOMINIKA GO !!!
This tournament is also some kind of "reward" for Dominka for
playing for Slovakia in Fed Cup and for Daniela as well for refusing
to play.
