Pera wins. So gutted for Rona, as she was the only one capable of beating her. Bearing in mind i heard the live scores for Rona vs Pera were not shown which is annoying.

Rona started off with the look of sheer confidence and just took everything on and you could tell by her movement and attitude that she believed she could win. 

1st game was quite funny, rona serving she hit two double faults then 4 aces.

1-0 

second game rona hit 4 backhand return winners against pears massive serve.

2-0

really showcasing her talent and how good she can be rona went 4-1 up and pear looked lost as a puppy but rona started to get nervous i think probably wondering if she could keep that play up. 

4-4 then rona breaks 5-4 has 4 set points but doesn't get that game then loses first set 7-5.

then again she goes 4-1 up looking gritty and really digging deep and showing pear who's boss but struggles mentally after hitting a few unforced errors. then its more up and down with both of them either blasting a winner or hitting a forced error. 4-4 again rona struggles with unforced errors and although playing some unbelievable tennis and obviously showing that she was 5 times better than pera she let herself down . Pera didn't win, Rona lost so she must be gutted but i reckon that will push her to win these matches. 

the score was 7-5 6-4 not as they put down and i heard there was a bit of an argument with rona and the refs about that . 

Pera cruising past the number one seed and rona beating her only to get beaten by herself- once she overcomes that - thats why i say she's bona make it. She's  dangerous player. Big serve, and that lefty serve out wide is a killer. Incredible physicality and movement and speed + endurance .  big forehand, and probably what is the best backhand in women's tennis i have ever seen. she eases toward the net as her volleys are great and she has ogood hands, wicked slice and drop shots and her ability to defend unbelievably as well as attack is remarkable and also how she can change from the defense position to attack by one slice mentally she just needs to believe more and more.

sorry for this but i am now a huge fan of hers after watching her play and i will keep checking her progress and hope she just keeps her head screwed on and keeps working 100% - good luck rona if you read this! You can do it!
