Go here, theres a few to choose from.

Stunning point at 3-3 Adv- Radwanska to bring it back to deuce. Laura playing like she fancies her chances, great to watch!

Maybe we should make all of her other opponents wear masks with the top 10 player's faces on them.

I like your thinking biggrin It is remarkable how Laura seems to up her game vs these girls though.

Radwanska going for her serve a lot more than usual, she clearly knows what a threat Laura is on weak serves. Will be interesting to see how Aga maintains her service though. Also, early signs show Laura looks more suited to the clay, Aga doesnt seem able to produce enough power to cut through the court and even her usual angles and trickery seem limited vs Lauras power

Could be a bit stupid, but I can't find any stream of the match from that link?

4-3* first set and interestingly poised. Biased though I am, Laura has looked better and Aga hasnt made any in-roads in Robsons service.

Interesting to see Lauras confidence in charging forward and putting away some tricky drive-volleys very comfortably in the corners. Even the dropshot - lob combination that I imagine Aga thought would win her many few points proved to be futile.

Great start to the match!

The WTA obviously didn't think much of this match - they have the coin toss as one of the highlights!

The recording on the WTA site includes the excellent 17 shot rally at 4-1 in the 2nd set. Worth watching.

4-3 30-30 Laura just missed the winning shot after setting up so well!

40-30 Radwanska

Deuce - winner off a weak 2nd serve, blasted straight down the line.

Adv-Robson, return of serve smacked into the corner, clean FH winner of the weak Aga defensive shot.

Deuce - long on the ROS. Too much aggression there. Calm Laura!

Adv-Robson, trade of groundstrokes, power increased from Laura. High bouncing return near the service line, smacked into the open court by Laura.

BREAK! Return deep, UE from Aga! Amazing. Fancy her to serve it out based on the earlier set play.

Laura breaks and will serve for the set! Come on!!!!

5-3

15-0 Aga throwing in slices now, looks very much on the ropes. Too much consistant power from Laura, nightmare for Aga to deal with.

30-0, UE from Aga off aggressive backhand crosscourt.

40-0 Amazing second serve, return hit long from Aga. So much errors from Aga, you can tell she is massively out of her comfort zone here.

GAME AND FIRST SET! Stunning DTL FH by Laura off the return of serve!

6-3 Laura Robson
