Lost to Svitolina. The match had begun so well, she was leading 4-2 with the break and the serve, and then, suddenly, momentum switched even thought it was Angie dictating most of the point, Svitolina went away with the first set 6-3. Of course, credit to Svitolina to have done to Angie was she usually does to other, but darn, she certainly knows how to get into Angie's head. If Angie's backhand was regular, a few unforced errors on her forehand, which wasn't as consistant then the past few days, was certainly really costly and her % of first serve in was so low that she had to fight on every point.
I was so certain it was her turn to defeat her. Well, if you ask me, i rather Angie let this one go, and beat her in a slam, for instance. well, not that she let it go, but you know what i mean.
This said, overall, i think it was a good week of tennis on Clay for Angie. She still working in her serve, and it is obvious that she is between two different things, her forehand was a destroying weapon, but could also be unconsistant at times, which is costier against bigger players. Add a higher % of first serve in, and a more constant forehand, the rest of the world is in trouble. :)
