Widjaja scores upset win over 7th seed Maria

Her current ranking may not be reflective of the true potential. The Indonesian girl Angelique Widjaja has proved that before. Her historic triumph in the 2001 Bali WTA Open is just a reminder. The young Indonesian demonstrated her class one more time as she recorded a professional-like 6-3, 6-4 win over a much higher-ranked — seventh seed — Maria Elena Camerin of France to book a place in the quarterfinals of the ING Vysya WTA Hyderabad Open tennis tournament here today.

Second seed Marion Bartoli of France stormed into the quarterfinals with an easy 6-2, 6-4 win over Galina Fokina of Russia. In the other second round matches today, fifth seed Jelena Kostanic of Croaita bested Vera Douchevina of Russia 6-1, 6-3 while 116th ranked and unseeded here, Mervana Jugic-Salkic of Bosnia and Herzogovina created a minor upset as she knocked out eighth seed Lubomira Kurhajcova of Slovakia, who is currently ranked 84 in the world, 7-6, (6), 4-6, 6-3.

Unseeded Japanese Yuka Yoshida, who made a sensational start by ousting top seed compatriot Saori Obata in the opener, crashed out losing to the promising Russian Maria Kirilenko, 2-6, 3-6. In another match, China’s sixth seed Jie Zheng put it past Tatiana Poutchek of Belarus 6-3, 6-2.
