Tricky stuff in New York.
Serena Williams had to face her sister Venus in the quarter final in a match that to be frank we could see only one winner. The world no.1 had a rough battle, but eventually she won 6-2 1-6 6-3.
As we said, we couldn’t see Venus to deny her beloved sister Serena to win the Grand Slam, so we have been not really surprised for the result.
Serena: She played very well
During the interview the American no.1 commented “It was great to see her [Venus] do so well tonight. She was at an unbelievable level today. Down to the match point, it was just not easy. It’s probably the toughest match I’ve played in a really, really, really long time where I wasn’t actually beating myself. I was out there facing an incredibly tough opponent.
Seeing she has that level is so inspiring. Against any other player she for sure would have won.”
Next vs. Vinci
Serena will have a (probably) smooth semifinal against world no.43 Roberta Vinci. Head to head is 4-0 for Serena that has always beaten the Italian without much struggle (and without conceding more than 4 games per set).
The final is really close.
