Yesterday I visited the 2nd matchday of the German women’s 1st Bundesliga. The hometeam & climber TC 1899 Blau Weiß Berlin welcomed the TC WattExtra Bocholt. Because of the French Open in Roland Garros some of the best players of Bocholt like Caroline Wozniacki and Lucie Safarova weren’t there. But despite of this fact there where some good players – especially Spaniards and South Americans

I attended the following singles matches (Berlin players mentioned first):

Agnes Szatmari (HUN) – Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez (ESP) 3-6 1-6
Soledad Esperon (ESP) – Lourdes Dominguez Lino (ESP) 4-6 6-7(4)
Elisa Balsamo (ITA) – Nuria Llagostera Vives (ESP) 4-6 1-6
Kveta Peschke (CZE) – Klara Zakopalova (CZE) 3-6 5-7
Vivien Weber (GER) – Renata Voracova (CZE) 5-7 6-4 1-6
Syna Schreiber (GER) – Marlot Meddens (NED) 6-2 6-2

The most matched were of good quality. The match of the day was the Czech battle between Kveta Peschke and Klara Zakopalova. But also in the match of Soledad Esperon and Lourdes Dominguez Lino there were a lot of good rallies with many nice dropshots.

The conditions were very problematic because rain, sunshine & wind changed nearly every minute. I didn’t follow the doubles matches. In the end Bocholt won 7-2.

I’ve uploaded 95 pictures & 9 videos (available in HD).

Next Saturday I’ll be in Halle, Germany to watch the semifinals of the ATP tournament Gerry Weber Open. I hope to see players like Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Of course I’ll take pictures and videos again
