Today I’ve added 171 new pictures from singles quarterfinals from Stuttgart last week.
You can watch the pictures here.
Like yesterday I’ll now short-summarize the matches I attended:
The first match on Center Court was Elena Dementieva vs. Marion Bartoli. The French played good groundstrokes but was too inconsistant. Dementieva played good and secure so she deserved the win.
The match Svetlana Kuznetsova vs. Gisela Dulko was a quickie. Kuznetsova served strong and dominated the match. Dulko had big problems in her service games and made in total too many errors.
The best match of the day was Flavia Pennetta vs. Jelena Jankovic. High quality tennis of both with many emotions. Jankovic hit a ball onto the video cube at the roof and Pennetta desroyed a small advertising board of the linesman chair. Pennetta became better in the second set after losing the first. She turned paper and became the deserved winner.
At the end of the day I watched the first set of Dinara Safina vs. Agnieszka Radwanska. Safina won the first set.
Tomorrow the semifinal pics of singles and a doubles match will follow.

Day 2 of my uploading week. Today I’ve uploaded the Stuttgart pics from Thursday Singles round of last 16. 158 pictures of players like Sabine Lisicki, Jelena Jankovic or Caroline Wozniacki.
You can watch the pictures here.
And now some impressions of the matches I attended:
The first match was Marion Bartoli vs. Caroline Wozniacki on Court 1. Bartoli returned very good. The Danish teenager Wozniacki had some problems to find a line in her match. So Bartoli deserved the win in two sets.
Then I watched the end of Elena Dementieva vs. Agnes Szavay on Center Court. Szavay played much better than the last months but Dementieva was stronger in the deciding points.
Returning on Court 1 I watched the first games of Agnieszka Radwanska vs. Tsvetana Pironkova. It was an average match with some good points. Pironkova played offensive but made too many errors. Radwanska played solid tennis.
On Center Court I watched the last games of the match between Svetlana Kuznetsova and Li Na. The points I saw were of really good quality. Li played very agressive. But in the end Kuzzy made the important points.
The match of the day was Jelena Jankovic vs. local hero Sabine Lisicki. It was a really good match with many good shots. But Lisicki had some problems with her 1st serve while Jankovic served solid. In the end of an equal match Jankovic was the lucky winner. But despite of Lisicki’s lost the atmosphere in the Porsche Arena was great.
After a long day I watched the first 3 games of Dinara Safina vs. Daniela Hantuchova…
Tomorrow I’ll upload the quarterfinal pics.
So stay tuned

Today I’ve uploaded the last pics from Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart last week. You now can watch my pics from the singles final and all pics from all training sessions I attended the whole three days.
Before the singles final began there was time to watch both finalists – Nadia Petrova and Jelena Jankovic – warming up for the final. Despite she lost her doubles match on Saturday Agnieszka Radwanska played a few balls on the Show Court at the Lifesyle Village. Returning to Center Court doubles finalists Anna-Lena Groenefeld and Patty Schnyder were practicing half an hour. All practice pics of the whole weekend!
After a great show of some international artists (I’ll upload the video the next days) the singles final began.
Nadia Petrova and Jelena Jankovic showed a really good match. The first set was tied but Jankovic reached the only break so she won the first with 6-4. In a more The second set was more open and there were more breaks. Nadia Petrova struggled at the end of the set with her serve so Jankovic won the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix with 6-4 6-3. I think it was a deserved title because all matches I watched of her she played some good tennis.
The ceremony was a highlight when Jankovic got the key to her new Porsche. It was really funny when she drove a little round on court – but you’ll see it in the video I made of the whole ceremony.
Because I had a 6 hours drive back to Berlin I had to left so I couldn’t watch the doubles final…

Stuttgart pics from Saturday
October 8, 2008 at 5:56 pm | In Agnieszka Radwanska, Andrea Hlavackova, Anna-Lena Grönefeld, Jelena Jankovic, Kveta Peschke, Lucie Hradecka, Nadia Petrova, Patty Schnyder, Photos, Rennae Stubbs, Reports, Venus Williams, Victoria Azarenka, WTA | Leave a CommentTags: Agnieszka Radwanska, Andrea Hlavackova, Anke Huber, Anna-Lena Grönefeld, Jelena Jankovic, Kveta Peschke, Lucie Hradecka, Nadia Petrova, Patty Schnyder, Rennae Stubbs, Stuttgart, Tennis, Venus Williams, Victoria Azarenka, WTA
Today I continue with my report and pictures from Saturday in Stuttgart. Beside the pics from the semifinals in singles I’ve also uploaded some pics of the doubles semifinals.
When I entered the Porsche Arena first I followed a training session of Victoria Azarenka. At the so called Lifestyle Village the Operating Tournament Director and former German top player Anke Huber played tennis with some kids. Then I watched Jelena Jankovic on Court 1 at her practice. When I returned to Center Court doubles partners Anna-Lena Groenefeld & Patty Schnyder were warming up for their semifinal in the evening. At the last session before singles semifinals began another doubles pair did their practice: Czech partners Andrea Hlavackova & Lucie Hradecka. All pics of these training sessions will be uploaded tomorrow!
Then the first singles semifinal began: Victoria Azarenka vs. Nadia Petrova. It was a good match but Azarenka seemed to be very tired after her long quarterfinal the day before. So Petrova, who won at Stuttgart in 2006, became the first finalist after winning 6-4 6-4.
The second singles semifinal was the highlight of the day! The new world No. 1 Jelena Jankovic and Wimbledon champion Venus Williams played a great match over three sets in nearly three hours. The first two sets were very tied. But in the third Venus Williams made many errors so Jelena Jankovic joined Petrova in the final with a 6-7(8) 7-5 6-2 win.
After a short break the first semifinal in doubles between Anna-Lena Groenefeld & Patty Schynder and Victoria Azarenka & Agnieszka Radwanska began. The German/Swiss pair lost the first set because Groenefeld made too many volley errors at the net. But she and Schnyder turned the paper so the match tiebreak has to bring the decision. At the end Groenefeld & Schnyder won 2-6 6-4 11-9.
After a long day again I only followed the first seven games of the doubles match between Kveta Peschke / Rennae Stubbs and Andrea Hlavackova / Lucie Hradecka.
All pictures of the semifinals and other pics from Stuttgart.
