Hantuchova: It was tough

Daniela acknowledged her opponent “Today was very tough because Ajla was playing some great tennis. I had to really fight for it – at the end I felt maybe I was a little fresher and sharper, and that decided the match.

But Ajla has a great future ahead of her. She’s also a very nice girl. It’s nice to have somebody like her in the game. And like I said on the court, I’m sure she’ll have many more finals to come.”

Tomljanovic: Pattaya was a big step for me

The 21-year-old commented “There are too many positives from the week. I’m going to try not to dwell on this too much. I’ll just try to learn from it. There are things I can learn from this match and the week. Overall I think this was a really big step forward for me in Pattaya.”

Daniela is expected to go to Dubai where she should play the first round against Mona Barthel  … if she has some strengths.
