Williams ends Dementieva's comeback |
This was no easy match for Venus Williams and Elena Dementieva. It was a battle of who spirits, of who could outlast the other. In the end of the 2-hour match, Venus prevailed 6-1 7-6(4).
In the course of the first set, Elena had a hard time holding her serve and Venus served well. But the second set was really competitive as both women traded breaks and almost every game was close. Venus served for the match twice but Elena broke her and forced a tie-breaker. Venus reeled off 3 straight points in the tie-breaker but Elena countered with her own set of 3 points. In the end, it was Venus who came out better in this match.
I'd say that this week is still a pretty good one. We can't really expect much right now as she's just coming back from a very serious injury. It will take some time to rediscover her form. But I hope that she'll be in full steam come Roland Garros.
