Maria not over playing her shots and now has come back 3 all in the 1st set

Maria should stay away from Iga's fhand for starters and attack her bh more, high bouncing court favors Iga's fhand

Back to the drawing board for Maria!

Well done to Iga Swiatek winning her 2nd WTA1000 IW title defeating Maria Sakkari 64 60
Iga never lost a set all tournament!
19th career title
8th WTA1000 trophy
Strengthens her grip on the No 1 ranking ( no points to defend in Miami)
Congratulations Iga! and well deserved title!

I'm sorry gang, I don't want to see Goddess in any more finals. She sucks in a final. The girl has been on tour forever and has only won 2 titles. That Mexican tourney didn't feature many of the top players because they withdrew.

Now we have to wait for the men to put on a good final because the women's is a dud

Well all credit to Iga,after the 1st set, she was just ruthless, back to the drawing board for Maria, she got back to level in the 1st set at 3 all, after that she could not sustain her level anymore.
Quite frankly Iga dosent get the credit that she should around here, anyway I will give her the credit she deserves, she has been 'on song' at IW didnt drop a set all tournament.

Swiatek's a good #1; hopefully on her way to greatness, but not there yet! :face-with-head-bandage: :astonished-face: :fearful-face: :yawningface: :face-with-hand-over-mouth:
