Nicole Vaidisova photoGerman cutie pie, Nicole Vaidisova was the 11th seed in the 2008 WTA East West Bank Classic being played in Los Angeles, California, USA July 21-27.

Nicole defeated 133rd ranked Ayumi Morita of Japan in a 3-set 1st round match, 6-7(5-7), 6-3, 6-1. In the 2nd round, she lost to 59th ranked Bethanie Mattek of the USA in straight sets, 4-6, 0-6.

This was not a good showing for Nicole after reaching the Quarterfinals at Wimbledon. Hopefully she can do better in the US Open in August.
