Surprisingly anti-clutch performance. Still managed to hit a shot of the year contender in the tiebreak though.

3rd set was probably not necessary but Strycova fought well and Aga missed some easy shots to lose the second...

Aga played much better in the 1st and 3rd sets and it showed in the scoreline and the stats...


Plus that one point in the tiebreak with the 2 x high behind the head backhand twirl smashes was awesome! :worship::worship::worship:

Challenging match for Aga from 6-2 3-0 up. She started making more errors and allowed her rival to believe in herself. Barbie was really on fire from that moment and it was enjoyable spectacle to watch. :worship:
In 3rd set Aga raised her level and this time didn't allow Barbora to came back.

I disagree with the title of this thread, by the way. It was a high quality match, especially tactically, and in terms of talent and consistency.

It was clearly Aga's best performance in this event so far. Only missed the right frame of mind on the tiebreaker... She has to think and move "forward" when it counts. Means, make the game. It's mental.

And mental is essential: Aga wouldn't have one set more in the legs at this stage if she could have closed in that tiebreaker. But I guess she's fit enough to deal with it.
