Indian Wells - Kerber def Makarova 3-6, 6-4, 6-2.

It was late on Friday night when they decided to change the schedule and have the match between Kerber and Malkarova on a different court.

After a slow start, Angie was trailing 0-3 when she leveled up the match to 3-3 but the Russian broke back and it got Angie thinking a little too much and she finally lost this set 6-3.  Angie had a break point on her opponent first game of the second set when it started to rain, the match is postponed to tomorrow and i am pretty much sure that it will get Etkatarina thinking too much.

When the match resumed the day after, Angie’s forehand showed up to her appointment with the  russian.  Angie broke and kept the lead for a while until she asked for a challenger on a tight call on the backline – and it shows one feet in… right!  It was obviously not that so the call stand and Angie got broken.

She quickly regrouped and we felt she was on a mission.  A few mistakes here and there, but she stayed strong and managed to win the second set 6-4.  The few games were a little tight in beginning of the third, but when Angie broke, she stayed focused till the end of the game, and enjoyed a well deserved victory.



My prediction also stand, Angie will meet Vesnina tomorrow, no rest for the wicked! hihi

How much do you like Angie's new outfit? Pretty neat, red always suits her fine, assorted with a tight black skirt.  I did think that the yellow/blue was nice too.
