It would have been great if Daniela had been able to play her match as she'd have been hanging around all day waiting to play before the rain came. If she gets through she'll play Bratchikova who beat Peer 6-3 6-3.
She's the second match on court 1 after the Lisicki-Panova match. I just hope that this doesn't affect her too much, although it's the same for Puchkova and hopefully Daniela gets a good rest and is ready and prepared for tomorrow.

This really sucks. It would have been great for Daniela to play her match today because having to play two matches tomorrow will be tough, especially as Bratichova will have had a day off so she'll be a lot fresher. Daniela never seems to have much luck with scheduling these days and I don't see why they couldn't extend the tournament for a day as there aren't any tournaments next week with the Fed Cup on.

Holy geez, they're actually playing! Morita up 4-1. 4 straight games, Morita, Please!
Morita wins, 6-3. Don't let the screen door hit you on the way out, #1 seed Ana! Is there actually going to be a Daniela sihting in a few minutes!?

Nicely done, Daniela! #486!

The match started before 11 PM in New York, and after Dani breezed through the 1st, I was hoping finally for an easy match for her and a chance to rest up for the second match. Shoulda known better. Finally gave up on a resumption at 3:06 AM, fearful that she would came out flat like has happened so many times in recent years after a rain delay. I woke up again 2 hours later, went straight to the Forum, and rejoiced at eddy's post. 3rd set bagel! Wow! What a response after the second set slipped away. That's the Daniela that we know. Wonder if they'll soon shift her second match to Court 3, which is done for its schedule for the day. If so, here's to a Daniela Double Play!

No one can do anything about rain. However, I was wondering if the tournament organizers were Thailand's version of Moe, Larry and Curly. Now i know it. This is one helluva way to treat a two-time defending champion! (Though I have to think that if Daniela had told them screw you, I'm not playing that late, this wouldn't be happening. But that's not her way.) Talk about Midnight Madness! (now she just dropped serve again after being up 40-0. Good Gosh.)
Dani breaks back to 2-4. You know that no matter what, she'll fight to the end. If this doesn't end up a Danielathon and finishes after 3:00 AM there, I'll be shocked.
Hey eddy. How do you like that if Daniela somehow gets through this, she could be out there as soon as 4:00 PM? What a bunch of buffoons! (Just lost 1st set 2-6. Lovely.)

Brachtikova, who I know little about, so I had no idea that she has well over 300 career wins. Oddly, Dani's never played her before. Nice time for a first meeting. Already lost serve to start 2nd. This is sickening. 0-3; the stats are incredibly lopsided, she'd clearly spent. One of the thousands of reasons we love Daniela is how classy she is. But this is one time she should have been irrascible and just flat refused to do this.

Daniela is barely winning any points

I'm not surprised she's probably been up since 8am! Bratchikova probably rested til mid afternoon! "The same for both players rule does NOT apply here" I'm furious.

Shit, broken again, a set and 3-0 down. This is going to take something special to comeback from this.

The fact that this tournament was so important for Daniela's season is just sickening, it ain't gunna happen..

Daniela should have played Paris Indoors.. Daniela get the first flight outta there...

OMG Daniela retired from the match.

The tournament should be fined for treating the players this way SHOCKING, I HOPE SHE SPEAKS OUT.
