INDIAN WELLS: Feel the Love!
14/03/2006:
On one of the best weather condition days at the Pacific Life Open for the
main draw this year, Justine scored her first love/love victory for the 2006
season over Aiko Nakamura(WTA# 66) in 55 minutes on Monday's 3rd round. She
will next play Japanese veteran Ai Sugiyama on Tuesday night at 19:00 hrs in
the 4th round.
After early day seed drama on center court with an over 3 hour Hewitt match,
and a Dementieva 3 set match; Justine had no such problems. She was in quite
a good mood, the mood for love. This was the Belgian's first love-love
scoreline win since giving Oliva Lukaszewicz a bit of affection in their
first round match at the Australian Open back in 2004. Justine broke
Nakamura's opening service game, and accelerated ahead. The Japanese player
didn't have a look in the match, despite an opportunity to get a score on the
board in the fifth game. Justine took the first set on her second set point
6-0 with serve.
Justine continued to dominate in the second set, as the biggest marquee match
in Nakamura's career continued to slide inward. The Japanese player double
faulted, and lost grip of the occassion in the third game to give the Belgian
a 3-0 lead. It was the Justine show from there, and the only blip was the 4x
grand slam champion's eagerness to close out the set in style with big
serves. Justine gave absolutely no points to the opponent in her final game
6-0.
Final score: 6-0 6-0 in 55 mins
Justine versus Ai Sugiyama in the 4th rd
Justine will face veteran Ai Sugiyama on Tuesday night in the 4th round. This
will be their 4th career meeting. The last time they played was at the WTA
Championships last robin match in 2003 in their group, after Justine had
already qualified to the semi-final berth with wins earlier in the week. The
Belgian leads their head to head 2-1. Ai Sugiyama is currently ranked at #
25, and defeated rookie Safarova 6-3 7-5 in her 3rd round match in Indian
Wells. The Japanese has had a good run in Doha the previous week, losing to
eventual winner Nadia Petrova in their semi-final match in two tense sets.
