What a great match!
Ana Ivanovic is playing a very good tennis to be a huge threat for Victoria Azarenka in New York.
The Serbian beauty took a good lead to grab the first set 6-4 . Then the Vika fired back to give a very god match to the public.
Both players struggle with their second serve (nerves?) as Ana committed 8 double faults and Vika 9. Eventually the Belarus wrapped up the match scoring 99 points vs. Ana’s 93. Stats
Vika: I never give up!
Vika was pleased with her performance and her ability to get match to the match to comment “I’m a fighter at heart. I never, never give up. Whatever the score is, I’m going to try to do my best because there is always an opportunity. There is always a way. You just have to make up your mind and try to find that way.”
Next vs. Hantuchova
Vka will play the quarters against a regenerated Daniela Hantuchova. Head to head is 2-2, 2-1 for Daniela on hard courts.
