This was the first ever match for Catherine on a senior stage. Cici (her nick name) is ranked 1208 and she has never played any top 100 players in her brief career. Now the young American stuns everybody beating world no.13 Dominika Cibulkova 6-1 4-6 6-4. Match Stats
Bellis: I am speechless
Cici commented “I went into the match thinking it was going to be such a great experience, but I never thought I would come out on top. I feel amazing. I’m still speechless and am in shock about that match. I went in thinking I was going to play as well as I could possibly play. I obviously played pretty well. So I’m really happy.”
Next vs. Diyas
Now Cici will play world no.48 Zarina Diyas in the second round. She is definitely not expected to win this match, but who would have bet on her victory against Dominika?
