Lucie Hradecka will open her campaign in Bad Gastein with a first round clash against Sandra ZahlavovaYou can watch and bet on the action from the WTA Bad Gastein Open at bet365Lucie Hradecka has been in good form this season, and already has 2 ITF titles to her name. She hasn’t quite achieved the same level of success at WTA level, but she made it through to the final in Barcelona back in April. As the third seed this week in Bad Gastein, Hradecka might just prove to be a genuine contender for the title.
Hradecka will begin her challenge here in Austria with a first round contest against her compatriot Sandra Zahlavova. Zahlavova hasn’t been at her best this year, and is currently ranked outside of the top hundred. It’s been almost a month since she won her last match, and she’ll need to raise her game in order to compete with Zahlavova.
Hradecka has history on her side heading into this match. She has a 5-1 record against Zahlavova, and perhaps more significantly a 2-0 record against her on clay. The world No. 42 should be able to work her way into round two here, though Zahlavova has beaten her before, and may be able to cause Hradecka a few problems.
