Yang and Halep make history in Paris Chinese Taipei’s Tsung-Hua Yang became Chinese Taipei’s first ever Junior Roland Garros winner on Sunday with a 6-3, 7-6 win over Poland’s Jerzy Janowicz. Simona Halep won the first all-Romanian girls’ Junior Grand Slam final with a 6-4, 7-6, 6-2 win over Elena Bogdan. “This is big. Very big,” said 17-year-old Yang. “Before in my country nobody ever won this tournament so I’m very happy. We had second round, third round before but this is the first one for us. That makes me very happy. All my friends and family have been watching on livescores on the internet back home. I think they’ll be very happy too. I haven’t checked my phone messages yet but I think there will be lots.” After winning the first set, courtesy of some smart variation from the baseline, Yang seemed to lose his nerve and he went 0-5 down in the second set in the face of some rampantly powerful shotmaking from Janowicz. Yang, though, dug deep and slowly hit his way out of trouble. He forced a tiebreaker and continued with patient, thoughtful tennis until Janowicz eventually cracked. “I didn’t think I could win this match because he was a pretty tall guy and very strong, with good baseline shots and good off the ground” said Yang. “I was a little bit lucky and then in the second set I was 0-5 down and I just did not think too much and just played the points one-by-one.” Janowicz, who was also runner-up to Lithuania’s Ricardas Barankis at last year’s Junior US Open, was quick to praise the champion after the match. “ My opponent played very well. In the second set I didn’t concentrate and I thought I had won that set and my opponent didn’t make any mistakes,” said the 17-year-old from Lodz, Poland. “He’s very good. I am very happy that I made the final. It’s a good performance for me. I am very happy and maybe at Wimbledon I can be the winner. We will see. It’s all about getting experience for the pros.” 下面一段是青女的省略---------------- 此則為 ITF 青少年頭版新聞 http://www.itftennis.com/juniors/news/newsarticle.asp?articleid=18791 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.70.116.71
