Well Martina continues to cruise through the Italian Open:). She disposed of Francesca Schiavone in their second meeting this year.
She commended the first set and didn't loose a game. But her opponent stepped it up in the second set and was leading 3-0 before Martina evened it out and won the second set. The final score was 6/0 7/5 another great confidence booster I'm sure.
Next she'll be playing Flavia Pennetta whom she beat a week ago in Germany. Should be interesting. I will also be very interested to see where Martina stands in terms of ranking by the French Open on May 29 currently she's made it all the way to 21.
Which is amazing considering it's only been five months and she was ranked in the 300 in January.
And there is more good news for her since Kim Clijsters is also out, this could be Martina's first title since her comeback. We'll have to wait and see, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed:).
Here is an article relating to this match from MSNBC.
