Former Top 10 Russian star Anna Chakvetadze pulled off another upset of the day against Andrea Petkovic today when the Russian won in three sets, 6-3, 4-6, 4-6. This is consider an upset because Chakvetadze has disappeared for awhile while Petkovic took Justine Henin to three sets last week at the Unicef Open.
The German had a great run last week to the final of the grass tournament and played well against Henin. She led 3-0 in the third set before losing, but her games did not translate into the lawn of Wimbledon today.
Chakvetdaze has lost in either the first or second round of six out of seven tournaments she has played this year, minus Wimbledon. Her best run was at the PTT Pattaya Open in Thailand this February where she reached the quarterfinals losing to Tamarine Tanasugarn.
