Just tuning into the final at Adelaide International 2 between Bencic and Daria
For starters Daria needs a serve, also a weapon if she is going to stay in the Top 10, Bencic has already got a double break in the 1st set,trying to counter punch Bencic wont get the job done Daria, she is controlling the rallies, likes to take the ball early for starters., Bencic 2nd serve can be a problem, Daria needs to attack it when she gets the opportunity.
A complete wipe out by Bencic in the 1st set 60...I remember Bencic playing for Swiss in the United Cup in Brisbane she battled it out with Swiatek in a couple of hours, she lost, though Swiatek had to battle hard to get the win.
Belinda gving Daria a tennis lesson in how to construct a point, use of the whole court,it is the best tennis I have seen from Belinda in awhile, controlled aggression, not wanting to go down the lines all the time, going more cross court, bidding her time, also that fhand has improved, though Daria keeps going to the 'wheel house of Bencic her bhand' Belinda just puts it away.Belinda has also created her own pace in this match.Daria looked to me with no energy in this match, very subdued, she did have a walkover into this final.
Bencic 5-1 2nd set
Brillant Belinda wins the ladies single final in just 67 mins 60 62. over...Daria Kstatkina....best tennis Belinda I have seen from you in awhile well done!
