French Open 1/4: Errani vs. Petkovic

[Rose]

LOL as soon as I say that Sara is up in the 2nd Set!

 

[Rose]

Petko breaks back to level at 2 all in the 2nd Set.

 

[Rose]

I hate to make a sexist remark, but we need to get these women finished in 2 Sets so the guys get a chance to play :cover

 

[Rose]

Petko is doing her part. She is up 4-2 in the 2nd Set. After watching her last Match I didn't see this coming at all!

 

[Rose]

5-2 Petko in the 2nd Set.

Congratulations Andrea....a impressive win....well done!!!!!!

 

[Rose]

Petko 6-2 and 6-2 good for her she has had a rough time of it lately. So I'm happy for her Sorry Sara

So happy for Petko! The WTA needs more players like her - lots of heart, tons of personality, great backstory.

Meanwhile, Errani holds serve once the entire match. What a dismal performance.

 

[Rose]

^^I can't understand it! Sara had been playing well until today.

It's taken much longer than expected but I think it's safe to say Petkovic is back. Definitely a top 10 player at her best. Playing at this level, she could beat Kuznetsova or Halep (looks like it's going to be Halep). Halep could definitely beat Petkovic as well. And so could Kuznetsova. But a trip to the final would really declare that she's back. And should Bouchard upset Sharapova, I could see Petkovic, who's been around a bit more, played a few more big matches, winning the title. But I guess it's more likely that Halep will be in the final. I don't know. Anyways, just glad to see her back.

6-2 6-2 is the final score, no one gave Petko a vote and she won it in straights.

Crushing win from Petkovic, really didn't see this one coming after the way she struggled a bit to get over the line in her R4 match. Congratulations to her.
