Anisimova and Pliskova win at Credit One Charleston Open

Amanda Anisimova downed Putintseva 6-1 6-2 while Pliskova came back to win against Zavatska 4-6 7-5 6-4 in Charleston.

Amanda Anisimova is getting back to doing things she was doing earlier this season and that's winning. The American is clearly motivated to do well yet quite a few times in the past month she ran into troubling circumstances with some injuries and some retirements. Now in Charleston she is looking good again winning two matches.

Today's match against Putintseva was a very good one as Anisimova dominated from the get-go. The faster clearly allowed her to attack Putintseva a lot as the player from Kazakhstan doesn't have a very strong serve. It got her in trouble quite a bit and Anisimova had no worries in the match. She won 6-1 6-2.
