I really enjoyed this match very much and I did not expect that these ladies would take three hours to finish just their third set! What makes this match unbelievable was the very high level of tennis, especially in the third set. They were already playing for more than two hours but as the game progressed, the high level of tennis did not even falter! The mental toughness of both Schiavone and Kuznetsova really shone through today, and it's a pity one had to go. I don't know though if Schiavone still has the energy to fight Wozniacki on Tuesday, but at least, we know that both she and Schiavone have the strength of iron women! Today was a fantastic display of what top women players can do. It really felt like they were both in the zone and just doing free flow tennis! It was majestic too watch!
