Go Masha this tournament is for you and to help you to gain confidence for the coming Roland Garros. Remember you´re too strong mentally and keep focused on tennis. The best for you is still to come. Best Wishes from lovely and beautiful land of COLOMBIA.

I've been missing her game quite a lot as she's not been on court since May. Hopefully she'd be well-prepared for the Roland Garros this year, to breakthrough QF in 04 and 05, let alone Round 16 last year. Best wishes for her, no matter she wins the Istanbul Cup or not.
