Elena bagels Dani in third, faces Kuznetsova in QF |
Elena Dementieva outlasted Daniela Hantuchova in the 2nd round action of the Pilot Pen Tennis tournament in New Haven. Elena won despite dropping the second, 6-2 5-7 6-0. After Elena dropped the second set, she decided that she should have already won it a couple of minutes ago so she demolished Hantuchova. Elena will be facing Svetlana Kuznetsova in the quarterfinals, a rematch of the 2004 US Open Final.
Elena Dementieva leads Svetlana Kuznetsova 3-2 in their head-to-head meetings, Elena winning the last two. But in their most important match, which is the 2004 US Open Finals, it was Svetlana who triumphed. This match is very interesting. They are both playing well recently, and have improved over the last 2 years. The last time they met was like 17 months ago and a lot of things have changed since then. Let's see how things will turn out tomorrow. All the best to Elena.
Davai Elena! |
