Score, report, and key facts
1st set.
Bolsova commenced this set in the best possible way after breaking Sharma in the 1st game (1-0). Anyhow, that was not enough for Aliona to win the set since the Australian managed to break back in the 3rd (1-2) game. Bolsova maintained her focus to break the Australian in the 8th (5-3) game before managing to win the set (6-3).
2nd set.
Astra was far too good to concede just 1 game before breaking Bolsova 2 times and win the set 6-1.
The Spaniard was powerless in the last 5 games of the set (from 1-1 to 6-1).
3rd set.
Sharma was quite dominant at the beginning of the set to break Bolsova in the 1st game (1-0) before consolidating her break and lead 3-0. Nevertheless, there was more to do for Sharma to win the set because the Spaniard succeeded in breaking back in the 4th (1-3) game. Astra kept her cool to break Bolsova in the 5th (4-1) and in the 7th (6-1) game.
Bolsova lost the 3rd game (3-0) when she was comfortably leading 40-0.
