Hsieh Helps Launch New BMW

Hsieh Su-Wei has not disappointed tournament organizers with her performances
on the court or off it at this week's BMW Malaysian Open.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - At the site of her maiden WTA title, the BMW
Malaysian Open holds a special place in Hsieh Su-Wei's heart.

After a few barren years on the singles court, Hsieh's return to Malaysia has
sparked an upturn in form. Granted a wildcard, she has not disappointed
tournament organizers either on the court - where she is through to the
quarterfinals after wins over No.3 seed Casey Dellacqua and Misa Eguchi - or
off it.

On Wednesday, Hsieh helped the event's title sponsor, BMW, launch its F10
520d Sport car. Hsieh and her second round victim Eguchi were on hand to sign
autographs and pose for photographs before unveiling the new car alongside
BMW Group Malaysia's Managing Director, Alan Harris.

Hsieh Returns To Kuala Lumpur QFs

Former champion Hsieh Su-Wei won a rollercoaster encounter with Misa Eguchi
on Thursday to book a place in the quarterfinals of the BMW Malaysian Open.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - Hsieh Su-Wei kept alive her hopes of reclaiming the
BMW Malaysian Open after a rollercoaster second round triumph over Misa
Eguchi on Thursday.

On another sweltering afternoon in the Malaysian capital, Hsieh required
three sets, two hours and one change of outfit to defeat Eguchi. Last year,
an out-of-form Hsieh lost to Eguchi at an ITF Circuit event in Seoul, but
this time a more relaxed approach helped her exact revenge with a 6-3, 3-6,
6-0 victory.

"Last year, I was under more pressure. I missed out in qualifying for the
main draw at a few tournaments and my coach sent me to play an ITF and win a
few rounds," Hsieh said. "Today, I was a little nervous in the second set,
trying to push the ball in, and hitting it wider and kept just missing.

"In the third set, I tried to hit the ball harder and I played much better."

And strategy was not the only change Hsieh made in the decider: "It was very
hot there and so I changed from shorts to a skirt. It definitely helped me
move faster. But I also like the white dress - it's my favorite color!"

Hsieh came through qualifying to lift the title in Kuala Lumpur three years
ago and in the next round she will take on a player looking to repeat the
feat, Elizaveta Kulichkova.

The top half's second quarterfinal will pit another of the tournament's
surprise packages, Carina Witthoeft against top seed Caroline Wozniacki.
Witthoeft will be appearing at this stage of a WTA event for the first time
in her fledgling career, although this inexperience was nowhere to be seen
against No.5 seed Klara Koukalova, whom she saw off, 7-6(3), 6-0.

Wozniacki is likely to provide a far sterner test of the young German's
credentials. As in her opening round, Wozniacki was forced to weather an
early storm, but after taking a tight first set she quickly wrapped up a 6-4,
6-1 win over Zhu Lin.

"She played very aggressively, very flat. But I served very well, ran down a
lot of balls and kept fighting," Wozniacki said. "It's always difficult when
you play someone for the first time and it took me a while to figure her out.
To her credit, she played very well and I had to work hard in the first set."

算是難得上了 WTA 條目，拿了張賽會會內外卡要盡點義務，希望不要搞的太累 (誤)。
