Martina Hingis shaking hands after winning 6/3 6/2
Well looks like it's revenge week for Martina in Berlin. She beat the #5 seeded Elena Dementieva yesterday who Martina lost against in Doha earlier in the year and 2 previous times before her comeback.
So this must have been a huge confidence booster for her. One that I am hoping will help her against Amelie Mauresmo today.
Mauresmo is another player who Hingis lost to earlier this year so she will definitely want to even out the score. And if the way she played yesterday against Dementieva is any indication she might do just that.
This was classic Hingis at her best she used drop shots came to the net at every opportunity, she was very aggressive and really mixed it up. Which is something I think her game has been missing for the last little while. Best match of her comeback so far even she says so in her interviews.
Previous to this match she dismissed German Julia Schruff with no problems.
After Mauresmo Martina will most likely play Justine Henin and I believe this will be the first time they will play since Martina's comeback.
So I am wishing her all the best of luck today and hope she can kick Mauresmo's butt same way she did Elena's.
Here is an article with more details of this superb match.
