There is absolutelly nothing special in this young Slovakian pseudo-talent. She is a like Caroline Wozniacki on a more attacking day in her younger years, if not worse. Belinda Bencic has no game at all to win slams. And to me, she seems to be a bit fat as well.
Yeees, Roberta What a great victory for her, I'm so happy! I really didn't expect her to do that well here in St. Petersburg! She had to fight a lot against Babos but played so well against Ana and Belinda. Well deserved
Seriously, I've got to admit I really thought Roberta wouldn't be able to back up that US open final. It came out of nowhere and I really was expecting her to keep playing that Top 50 level she had before the US Open Series. But it's amazing how she raised her level. So many good results since the US Open. Good chance now at reaching the Top 10 for the first time
Well,Roberta was too smart even for Belinda.She is peaking at the end of her career and right now she can beat anybody with her very tricky game.Although i must say Belinda was very average in this tournament and did not deserve to win it all.Good lesson learned,many more finals are coming for Belinda in the future
Vinci has perfected the tennis equivalent of "sliced to death" .
Good job showing the Swiss who's the real serena killer :lol:. Congrats for her 10th title.
Belinda, i'm afraid she's showing the sign of Wozniackism. Let's prove it wrong. She has some attitudes on court, but really a gracious loser, so no hating on her. Good luck for your next final.
Fantastic display by Roberta, such a beautiful tennis.
Agressive FH + net play + BH slice + serve - everything worked for her today.
Belinda Bad luck, for the second time in a row in the final she played player in peak form. She still needs improve her game to win this kind of matches.
BB was literally fuming about robis slice BH of doom, she just couldn't handle it. steep learning curve for her, at her age and inexperience with different playing styles it was somehow foreseeable...
congrats to robi though, what a fine week for her. must taste like honey winning this title with such a strong display throughout. :yeah:
