Can't ask for much more than that from Amanda.

May be worth changing the rankings on the match as she is now in the top 600

Good chance of a SF appearance for Amanda.

Amanda seems to win all the time but her ranking hasn't risen as much as expected!

Hopefully this excellent scheduling will deliver her a title and a rankings boost for 2009

Come on Amanda:) Chance for some bigger points here. She should start playing more 25k's now for the bigger points.

SF: (4) Amanda Carreras WR 594 v (6) Valentine Confalonieri (ITA) WR 729

Confalonieri is only 16 but seems to be very talented judging by her results and knocked out the top seed in straights in the last round.

DUSTY DICK · Club Coach

It would be good to see Amanda play 25k's regularly next year. She's done alright at 10k. Now needs to push on and test the bigger waters.
