One of the matches I watched today on www.tennistv.com was the quarterfinal match between Petra Martic and Bojana Jovanovski. This is the first time I've seen Martic and at a ranking of #57, she has shown today that she can make it as high as the Top 30. Her playing was a bit uneven though since, from time to time, her serves would falter, especially when she is leading. However, during the third set, soon as she reached 43, she didn't put on the brakes and with the help of some mistakes from Jovanovski, got herself into her first semifinal this year. She'd have to work harder though since she will meet local darling, Caroline Wozniacki.
