Match Recap

Thoughts about *that* Suarez Navarro v Bouchard match in Rome

I just finished watching the third set of the torrid third round match between Carla Suarez Navarro and Eugenie Bouchard… Jeepers, my eyes! Carla eventually prevailed, 6-7(2) 7-5 7-6(7) in three hours and two minutes.  The third set tiebreak was painful from both players, but especially Bouchard.  This was a really tough loss for the…

Match Recap, Rome R1: Venus Williams d. Katerina Siniakova, 6-2 6-2

As 6-2 6-2 scorelines go, this was a pretty lively first round match.  Venus Williams produced an impressive display to defeat the 19-year-old, Katerina Siniakova in 76 minutes.  I’ve read a lot about Siniakova and watcheds snippets of her matches.  This was perhaps her most high profile match on a streamed court… It’s safe to…

That’s a wrap for WTA Madrid: Watch out, Petra’s back!

Well hello smiling Petra… Petra Kvitova produced an irresistable performance to defeat an under-the-weather, Svetlana Kuznetsova, 6-1 6-2 in just 66 minutes.  Kuznetsova had a medical time-out at the end of the first set and also ran off the court before the final game due to a stomach complaint.  It was a real shame that…

Match Recap, Madrid R3: Suarez Navarro beats Ivanovic for the first time, 7-5 1-6 6-4

In another fascinating WTA match in Madrid, Carla Suarez Navarro sealed her first ever win against Ana Ivanovic and extended her three set record in 2015 to 14-3 with a 7-5 1-6 6-4 victory in two hours and four minutes.  Although the quality didn’t quite rival their cracking quarter-final in Rome last year, it was…

That’s a wrap for Stuttgart 2015: Kerber beats Wozniacki in gripping finale and gets the Porsche!

Have I mentioned that I love Stuttgart? I’m sorry for sounding like a broken record all week, but this tournament is just totally awesome.  Angelique Kerber extended her winning streak to 11 matches, winning the last four games of the match to beat Caroline Wozniacki in a gripping finale, 3-6 6-1 7-5.  Kerber was 5-3…

The great matches keep on coming in Stuttgart… Wozniacki beats Halep to reach the final

I wish every tennis week was held in Stuttgart.  It’s not a coincidence that each year there are a handful of matches from this tournament that are in my top 20 countdown and there is no doubt that the first of the semi-finals between Caroline Wozniacki and Simona Halep will be featuring in 2015.  In…

Take a bow, Angie! Kerber beats Sharapova with an awesome display in Stuttgart

I was out playing tennis this evening so i’ve just been catching up with the second round match in Stuttgart between Angelique Kerber and Maria Sharapova.  I knew it was a long un’ as the match hadn’t even appeared on the TennisTV catch-up function when I tried to start watching at 8pm!  Matches like these…

Match Recap, Stuttgart R1: Makarova d. Mattek-Sands, 6-4 7-6

In a super match to round out Tuesday’s schedule at the 2015 Porsche Grand Prix in Stuttgart, Ekaterina Makarova edged Bethanie Mattek-Sands in a tight two setter, 6-4 7-6(3) in one hour and 39 minutes.  It is these kind of matches why I love Stuttgart… Makarova v Mattek-Sands has been a classic Stuttgart match so…

Match Recap, Stuttgart R1: First seed goes flying, Garcia beats Ivanovic, 7-6 6-4

In the first of the evening matches on Tuesday, last year’s finalist and the number five seed, Ana Ivanovic was bundled out of the tournament by Caroline Garcia.  The Frenchwoman saved three set points in a wacky and untidy opening set before prevailing in straight sets, 7-6(6) 6-4.  It’s hard to make sense of what…

Match Recap, Charleston Final: Angelique Kerber d. Madison Keys, 6-2 4-6 7-5

In the last match of the 2015 Family Circle Cup, Angelique Kerber came from 1-4 down in the final set to seal a magnificent win over Madison Keys, 6-2 4-6 7-5 in two hours and 16 minutes.  It was another great final between Kerber and Keys, and this match-up once again lived up to expectation. …
