Martina smiling after a sweet victory over Venus WilliamsWell Martina got her revenge on Venus:). And what a revenge it was! this match will go down into the classics. This was their 21st head to head meeting Hingis's wins against Williams are now 11 to 10.
It was a hard fought battle on both sides but in the end Martina prevailed:) with a score of 6/0 6/3 6/3. She seemed to have a lot of trouble in the first set I guess Venus was playing too well, but in the second set she brought her game up a notch.
She once again played aggressively all throughout and made some amazing shots. She proved that she can still hang with the big guns so to speak, and that once again when it comes to Tennis power isn't everything you can still win with finesse and good anticipation.
I am absolutely ecstatic and can't wait for her to win her first tournament of the year!. She will be playing against Dinara Safina whom Hingis has good odds against she won their last meeting this year at Indian Wells. So here is hoping for a repeat performance, fingers crossed:) And all the best of luck. All above pics are from the Martina Hingis Messageboard
