Thank you very much for your encouragement! I work hard to make this blog as good and as accurate as possible, and I hope it shows, but sometimes we all make mistakes. But as I said, you can always express your opinion, and readers' opinion is what makes blogs richer and better. You can always add to the article, or correct it if you think it's not very good, like you did in this case. That's welcome.

Thank you once again for supporting Women's Tennis Blog!

Well actually I think you've done a phenomenal job with /www.womenstennisblog.com/, particularly when it's a part-time project; good luck and keep up the great work even if that means not solely trusting Sporting Life or Courier Mail!

This match was not broadcast on our TV, although I hoped it would be so I woke up to watch it. Hence, I read what others wrote about the match, and Sporting Life, which I named as the source, wrote exactly this "was too strong for her Czech opponent and ran out a comfortable 6-4 6-2 winner". And I believed them, which was apparently my mistake.

However, that is why we have blogs and comments, so that everyone can add to the conversation and write their opinion. I'm really thankful that you and Hecto gave me and all the readers of Women's Tennis Blog better insight into the match.

I am usually impressed with your objective, non-biased commentary on the details of these crucial matches but simply describing Ana's performance as 'comfortable' and her presence being 'too strong' is quite slanted. After only achieving 61% of her first serves in and otherwise almost none on her second serve, even she had to admit:

"I had to fight for each point and you know that's good, especially in the first match. You want to get into your rhythm and you want to stay tough for each point," and "She was a tough opponent for a first round — she likes to hit the ball very flat.

That did not sound entirely comfortable.

When I saw Ana in person, she looked exactly the same, although I saw her from not so small distance.

She didn't play that well (it seemed like Petra was hitting harder and dictating the points) but she still managed to win quite comfortably in the end.
