KUZNETSOVA CRUISES!

Svetlana Kuznetsova has won her second grand slam major over world number 1 Dinara Safina. On paper this match should of went the distance they played 2 times this year both was on clay a they were three set thrillers where they both splitted a win. But last Saturdays Final showed that Safina still can not handle the pressure of winning her first major.

She played brilliantly during the fortnight winning matches with ease 6.0,6-2 in the 3rd and 6-2, 6-1, in quarters so the physical edge went to Safina. But cleary that did her no good Kuznetova started off slow when she dropped her serve in the first game of the the first set. but she quicly turned the tables breaking right back. From there she cruised she used her big forehand and her massive topspin. This tactic left Safina pushed behind the baseline she was running side to side all what Kuznetsova kept doing was dropshoting her, she must have done this play 15 times in the final.

Safina may be the number one player because she can win tournamnets consistantly but if you cant handle your nerves when a grand slam is up for grabs, then you do not deserve to be the player that everyone is gunning for. The final score in the match was 6-4, 6-2, in just 75minutes. After the match Safina was very disgraceful she said how she beat herself outhere she didnt show no courtesy to her opponet and in the tennis world they look down on your for saying stuff like that, so she needs to shape -up or get out like her brother Marat Safin whis retiting this year.
