06 25 to 06 65 with at least 2 SPs, then wastes two more SPs in the tiebreak. Classic.

I'm glad Monica didn't throw in the towel after that 1st set whitewash. Good fight coming back from 2-5 down in the second to get to 6-5 with a break up. Obviously regretable that Monica couldn't finish the set from that point but that is how things have gone with her lately. The slump continues....

Lourdes is clearly on a good run on her home blue clay though and credit to her for the win.

Lol, Niculescu blew a 40-0 and another advantage when serving to win the set 6-5 after an epic choke from Lourdes.
At least Lourdes won
A mess of score, as expected :lol:

 

[A-Bond]

Good riddance. Yet another bagel for Niculescu. So much for the hype around her after Doha. Anyway, nice win for Lourdes in her home tournament.

 

[Vuvurenka]

Whoohoo Niculescu is out

 

[Adrian.]

Monica

Hopeless choker

Lourdes Dominguez Lino - WTA saviour

 

[flareon]

Oh wow monica

 

[Curcubeu]

To quote the Eurosport ad, 'Romania, the land of choke...'

Wait...

 

[Julius Kugy]

Monica seems complitly burnt out after the amazing run she had last fall...

 

[cowsonice]

Is Monica finally fading into irrelevancy again...?
