Our pic of the day features Slovakian Daniele Hantuchova, who easily won her third round match over Spaniard Virginia Ruano Pascual 6-2, 6-2 to move into a Round of 16 match-up against Russian Maria Kirilenko- who upset sixth seeded Russian Anna Chakvetadze a day prior 6-7 (6). 6-1, 6-2.
The 24 year-old ninth seed’s draw looks promising. If she gets through Kirilenko, she could play streaky Russian Nadia Petrova for a chance at her first ever slam semifinal.
Hantuchova’s always had the ability to go far in a slam but never a great draw. We’ll see if she can take advantage.

Here, she looks very elegant visiting a Versace store in Melbourne.
