I’m so happy today! 6-4 6-3. Wozniack is an in form player, and goes in straight sets!! You were aggressive right from the start and held serve in tough games!
Way to do it Maria!!!!!
Congrats! Good luck on the next round
I believe in you, You did great job.
GO, GO,GO, MARIA!!
Congratulations again, you played a really really solid match!! Wozniak tried to be aggressive but you didn’t let her play her game and showed all your great skills again.I have to admit that you impressed me today especially at 4-4 1st set, you played like a top 10 who knows what to do to finish a set!!! Good luck against your next opponent and also in doubles!!!
PS : your hawk eye was better yesterday than today especially in the 2nd set today
. I’m joking cos it must be tough to know when to use the hawk eye or not as you really wanna see the ball in (or out).
Wooooow,I´m so impressed!!! Maria is just great! Happy day for me and for her!!!
Brilliant !! You are playing just great.. keep it up and you will go all the way. So well well done today. you are the best. M
