Sofya Lansere takes on Zvonareva

Sofya Lansere takes on Zvonareva

October 13, 05:30 PM

Two Russian tennis players were vying for a place in the second round of the quallies. In an exciting and close three-hour long match, Sofya Lansere defeated Olga Doroshina 7/6 (7/3), 6/7 (6/9), 6/3.

Both tennis players made a lot of errors: the winner made 14 double faults whiler her opponent made just 9. In the first set Lansere pulled-off a comeback, in the second she didn't manage to close the match in the tie-break, but finally prevailed in the third breaking her opponent's resistance.

«In the third set I was rushing things too much and I was down 0/2. But then I said to myself - this is my match, I have to win it! Because everything is within reach, everything is playable. I gritted my teeth, made my feet move, though my feet already felt sour, and I forced myself to put all the balls in the court. I have fixed my game.

Yet, when the score was 3/2 she took a medical break, it was hard to play the next two games, because the pause was too long, but it turned out to be a 5/2 score. At that moment, I choked because the match was close to completion. But then on my serve, I composed myself and won».

This year, the two players have already clashed in a full-time duel at an ITF event - then Olga Doroshnia prevailed. This experience helped a lot the young Lansere who recently celebrated her 18th birthday: «I already knew her weaknesses, how to play against her. Plus, of course, the support of all my relatives, friends and coach helped me a lot».

Lansere will now square off with her compatriot Vera Zvonareva: «It will be very interesting to play against her, because she was number 2 in the world. At the very least, it will be a good experience for me».
