Great stuff!! Sowjanya is the real deal!!

[bujilover]

Really impressive performance on CLAY. She has also entered for the 4th week here.

[QF] Sowjanya Bavisetti (IND,606) l. (8) Martina CAREGARO (ITA,458) 1-6 0-6

Sowjanya gets steam rolled in the QF.

[Sin Hombre]

Ouch.

[bujilover]

This week:

Sowjanya Bavisetti (606) versus Angela Leweurs (FRA,1148)

In doubles,this week Sowjanya is partnering Ukraine's Anna Shkudun and the pair is seeded second.Round1 of Singles today.

It seems Sowjanya pulled out this week as she is replaced by a lucky loser. Sowjanaya like Prajnesh on mens side is prone to injury. Both of then need to improve their fitness levels or learn to stay clear of injuries as otherwise they are able to produce quite good results even on clay.

hey i was looking forward to this week ...see if she can make it to the QF again...

[bujilover]

Sowjanya is back in action from this week after a 5 month layoff.Playing couple of Egyptian $10K events.

This week at $10,000 Sharm El Sheikh :

[R1] [4] Sowjanya BAVISETTI (IND,603) vs Risa HASEGAWA (JPN,1155)

Tricky match to start with although the Japanese is lower ranked.

Good luck Sowjanya!! I think she still trains at the Sanchez-Casal academy in Barcelona and primarily on red clay. Hopefully, she stays healthy and we start to see some good results from her.

Sowjanaya won her first round
Sowjanya BAVISETTI (IND) [4] 4-6 6-3 6-1 Risa HASEGAWA (JPN

[Omkara]

Indians are getting better on clay courts.... much needed!

[sameerph]

Yes, I guess mainly due to those extended training stints in Germany and Spain that most of them are having.

Good to see Sowjanya back on the circuit after a 5 months injury lay off and starting with a win. She had done well on the circuit last year and early this year. So, looking forward her to get back to that level soon.

Also waiting to see 2 more men players who had done well on the circuit but are missing due to injury for last few months - Prajnesh & KU Singh. Hope they get back to the circuit soon too.

Sowjanya moves to the QF with an easy win.

At $10K Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt

[R2] (4) Sowjanya BAVISETTI (IND,603) d. Valentina KULIKOVA (RUS,NR) 62 62

Next,

[QF] (4) Sowjanya BAVISETTI (IND,603) vs. (6) Pauline PAYET (FRA,577)

[sameerph]

Sowjanya into SF with a hard fought win.

At $10K Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt

[QF] (4) Sowjanya BAVISETTI (IND,603) d. (6) Pauline PAYET (FRA,577) 63 67(6) 64

Next,

[SF] (4) Sowjanya BAVISETTI (IND,603) vs. (Q) Vojislava LUKIC (SRB,NR)

27 year old Lukic was ranked at a career high of 203 but that was 6 years back. She is probably making a comeback from injury.

Nice job beating a higher-ranked (but lower seeded!) player in the QF!
