Quarter-final (Wednesday 23rd January 2008)
-------------
+ DANIELA HANTUCHOVÁ [9,EF] d. AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA [29], 6-2 6-2
I have uploaded to my website my new TV-report of this match, which I
recently acquired on DVD from Tennis Videos International
<http://www.users.bigpond.com/tennisvideos1/>.
This was the match with which Daniela reached her first-ever Major
semi-final, and now that I've actually seen the match myself, I can
say that it was a very high-quality performance from Daniela!
Daniela was full of confidence, constantly spreading her opponent,
hitting her flairsome groundstrokes with terrific pace and depth, and
also showing versatility such as forehand drive-volleys off the many
lobs she forced, and the magnificent backhand lob-winner that she hit
at *4-2 (15/0) in the first set.
Daniela: "I think every player knows what I'm talking about when you
get to that moment when you feel like everything you touch is going
in."
