[新聞] Groth進入廣州女網賽四強
Australian top seed Jarmila Groth remains the title favorite after a
dominating performance in her quarterfinal.
Groth, who saved five of six break points to blitz Maria Elena Camerin, is
through to her second semifinal of the season. On Saturday she'll be gunning
for her first final on the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour.
"It was a tough one - the conditions were very hot and humid, so it wasn't
easy to play," she said after her 60 62 defeat of the Italian on Friday. "She
started a little slower in the beginning and gave me a lot of chances to
close the first set quickly but she had chances in the second set, which was
a lot tougher, and I'm very glad to be through in these conditions."
So far, the 23-year-old is handling her top seed status - a career first -
with aplomb. "I'm trying to prove that I'm number one seed, but every match
is different so I just have to play my best and so far it's been working,"
she said. "I would love to reach the final, so I will definitely fight very
hard and hopefully I can sustain my form and win two more matches!"
Groth以一盤未失的好成績，進入廣州女網賽四強，在八強賽她又再度的展現在
賽場上驚人的支配力，這場比賽中，她一共救了6個破發點，將於本周六尋求第
一次進入WTA等級決賽的機會。
她在以6-0 6-2擊敗八強戰對手後表示：
"這對我來說挺艱難的，因為這裡很熱又很潮濕，我覺得有點不適應。她剛開始
有點慢熱，那給了我很多機會，去迅速奪得第一盤，然後第二盤她積極地反撲，
那不是很容易應付，但我很高興我最終通過了考驗。
這位頭一次以第一種子身分出賽的23歲選手，冷靜地說：
"我正試著以實力去證明我配當頭號種子，但每場比賽都是不同的，所以我必須
打出我最好的狀態，目前為止一切都不錯。我渴望進入到決賽，這必定是場苦戰
，希望我能持續穩定地表現，然後再多贏下兩場比賽。
