Belinda Bencic had a good straight-sets win against Petra Martic in the second round of the WTA 500 in Berlin. However, that match will probably be remembered for an incredible rally that Belinda won while sitting on the grass.
Belinda commented: “When you feel like wanting to sit down for a picnic during the match”
Enjoy the view.
