CHANGE IN FORTUNES FOR ANNA
ANNA CHAKVETADZE SEEKS A RETURN TO FORM
Just 12 months ago Russian Anna Chakvetadze looked one of the most promising players
in the Women's game. She was ranked in the top ten of the World Rankings and had
seven WTA Titles to her name at the slender age of 21. Since then she has suffered with
a dip in form which has seen her slip down the rankings.
 
CHAKVETADZE BEAT RADWANSKA TWICE LAST YEAR AND WAS A TOP TEN PLAYER
 
Today in Los Angeles Chakvetadze comes up against Agnieszka Radwanska who is currently ranked 13th in the
World. These players met twice on tour last year with Chakvetadze winning both matches. The Russian has made
several changes in a bid to find her game. She has a new coach that travels with her and her father has built a tennis
court in their back garden where she can practice.
 
CHAKVETADZE HAS WON THREE WTA TITLES ON THE HARD COURTS IN THE UNITED STATES
 
So far this week these changes seem to have helped her. In the first round she had a comfortable win over the 11th
seed Virginia Razzano in straight sets and then yesterday she beat Kleybanova. Chakvetadze has played some of her
best tennis on the hard courts in America winning three of her seven titles here. At odds of 2/1 at Betfair she
offers good value to record a third straight win over Radwanska.
 
PENNETTA HOLDS A 4 - 1 HEAD TO HEAD RECORD AGAINST OPPONENET PETROVA
 
Another player worth backing today is Flavia Pennetta who takes on Petrova. They have met five times before with
Pennetta holding a 4 - 1 lead. Two of these wins came on the hard courts and Pennetta comes into this match on good
form. She has won 10 of her last 12 matches on the circuit and won the title in Palermo on her last start. She has had a
months rest so should be fresh ahead of this game. Petrova has won 14 games less than Pennetta this season and got
thrashed by Sharapova in her last tournament. Pennetta is well worth a bet at 17/20 at Centrebet.
 
BK Tip: F.Pennetta to beat N.Petrova - 17/20 @ Centrebet
BK Tip: A.Chakvetadze to beat A.Randwanska - 2/1 @ Betfair
