Schneider started off the Asian hard series successfully and made it to the semi-finals in Seoul. Unfortunately, she was unable to build on that success.

Her opponents were Fernandez and Badosa, and the Russian tennis player won a set in each of these matches, but was unable to win the matches.
Professional qualities
Diana is distinguished by her high speed on the court, and is able to get the most difficult balls on the back line. At the same time, she always tries to play first and dictate her terms. Fortunately, she has a serve that is not the most convenient to receive, let us recall that the Russian is left-handed.

Schneider hasn't had the best time in the last tournaments, but her opponents weren't easy either, and Diana fought, taking a set each from Fernandez and Badosa. It too early to say that the Russian is currently on the decline.
