Garbine Muguruza plays another great match to easily beat Qiang Wang 6-3, 6-0 and reach the 3rd round in #Tokyo2020. Awaits Kvitova or Van Uytvanck.
Both Maria Sakkari and Garbine Muguruza lost only 3 games in the 2nd round of the Olympic Games in Tokyo. The Greek player took on Nina Stojanovic and crushed her in both sets. The final score was 6-1 6-2 and the result was never in doubt. Sakkari enjoys playing in such conditions as it showed.
She attacked Stojanovic at every opportunity she had and her baseline game worked. The Serbian does not have the power in her game to counter the aggression of Sakkari and she found herself quickly leaving the court as the loser.
Another player who enjoys playing in these conditions is Garbine Muguruza who played against Wang from China. The Chinese player led the H2H 2-0 vs Muguruza but the Spanish player was finally able to get a win. Muguruza was fantastic early winning the opening set with 6-3.
She then followed it up by better play in the 2nd set where she gifted Wang a parting gift of a bagel. A spectacular display by Muguruza who looks extremely dangerous on the slower courts of Tokyo.
Garbine Muguruza plays another great match to easily beat Qiang Wang 6-3, 6-0 and reach the 3rd round in #Tokyo2020. Awaits Kvitova or Van Uytvanck.
