MIAMI 07 - With The Wind
27/03/2007:

Justine's back in the quarterfinal stage at Miami after defeating Vera
Zvonereva (Wta#20) 6-3 6-2 in 1 hour and 23 minutes. After a tsunami of a
third round match on Sunday, Justine sailed on calmer seas playing along side
windy Miami conditions rather than wrangling against it. The world #1 will
face another Russian Nadia Petrova on center court tonight at 19:00 hrs
(Edt).

It was another breezy Miami in day number six at the Sony Ericsson Open, but
Justine worked with the wind rather than tussle against it. The talented
Zvonerava played a controlled, and percise match, but Justine's hyper offense
style of all court game gained all the crucial points for games. The Belgian
darted forward to a 4-2 lead with resistance from Zvonerava toward the final
stages, but won at the fourth set point 6-3 in 43 minutes.

Justine navigated to a 4-1 lead in the second set, despite Zvonareva playing
outstanding rallies. That little something extra always came from JH's Wilson
N-Code racquet forehand for winners whipped with a florish. The conditions
were far from ideal, and players throughout the day on show courts were
having difficulties with serves, yet Justine was effective on first serves.


Final Score 6-3 6-2 in 1hr 23 mins


Quarterfinal Night Against Nadia Petrova
Justine plays Nadia Petrova in the quarterfinals. Their most recent meeting
was at the 2006 WTA year-end Championships in Madrid. The Belgian tennis icon
won that in two sets 6-4 6-4. Justine will need to be on high alert because
the Russian is a talented, but sly player that will try to exploit
circumstances to her advantage, and determined to dethrone the Belgian tennis
queen.
