Surprisingly close match considering Diyas just lost in R1 of a 15k
Zarina played with the right tactic - totally exposing Duan's movement. First serves are well-placed and pretty effective, especially in the first set. However, her game just isn't fully there. Many sloppy groundstrokes here and there. Could not do much on return as well.
Duan could and should have played better. Footwork is terrible today. Attacking well when given the chance, especially on her FH, but still making quite a lot errors. Serve is pretty decent, and she won quite a lot easy points from good first serves.
Both ended with a positive W/UE ratio. Diyas - 16/14, Duan - 31/11
