Italian Open Quotes & Scores
Venus Williams defeated Czech Lucie Safarova 6-1, 6-4 yesterday at the Italian Open. “I’m feeling good. I’m feeling more confident with each match. I hoping I can win, or at least go all the way to the final,” said Williams.
Svetlana Kuznetsova beat Anna Smashnova 6-1, 6-3.
Francesca Schiavon defeated Mara Santangelo 6-4, 6-0.
And the lovable Hingis beat out Nicole Vaidisova 7-5, 6-3.
“She’s a very talented player and I’d never played her before. At first I had to get used to what she was doing,” said Hingis, who won in Rome in 1998 and was runner-up in 1996.
“In the first set I had to speed it up because she was overpowering me. But I’m pleased to have the win behind me and now I’m up against Schiavone, which will be a tough test.
“I just hope there won’t be too much of a crowd there or that they don’t get behind her or make too much noise. It is definitely not an easy draw”.
