Healthy Azarenka is surprised and intrigued by Martina Hingis return

Carlsbad: It’s time to come back from both Vika and Martina… well… we talk about two very different comebacks.

About Vika

Vika has been out from a month after a nasty injured suffered in Wimbledon against Maria Joao Koehle. After a tough preparation, Vika got back to her fitness to comment “My training has taken all day

But I’m just really glad to be healthy again. It wasn’t easy to get back on the court but I’m very eager now because I haven’t competed in a while. And these smaller tournaments have a nice vibe. I’m glad I was able to come here.”

About Martina

Martina Hingis’ comeback is something a little more spectacular. The Swiss is not playing an official tournament since her retirement in 2007. The 5 times grand slam champion will partner with super hottie Daniela Hantuchova in the doubles.

Vika: Intrigued by Martin’s comeback

“I don’t know what it means. But everybody is talking about it, that’s for sure.” Said Vika.

Martina and Daniela will face Germany’s Julia Goerges and Croatia’s Darija Jurak.

Back to Vika

Vika is seeded no.1 in this tournament. She will face Flavia Pennetta in her opener (7-64 6-76 6-4 on Flavia Pennetta). Head to head is 3-1 for Vika. Details
