The incredible form came to Singapore Maria Sharapova. Russian tennis player by injuries all season left in America and Asia, not counting one unfinished match against Barbora Strycova in Wuhan, and the WTA Finals prepared herself at home. Although it is not in the rhythm of the Match since the last full tournament took place three months ago at Wimbledon, for the time being does in Singapore with rivals what he wants.

At the opening defeated in three sets Agnieszka Radwanska. Tuesday’s convincing victory of the highest-seeded Simona Halep in the event in the absence of the women’s singles tennis Serena Williams tells her place as the main favorites in the tournament.

Match rolled under the dictation of the Russian tennis player, but he had a dramatic ending, for which there was no indication. Sharapova began the match by breaking the 2: 0 and even for a moment lost her pass, at the end again pressed Halep at the site.

From state 4: 4 in the first set Russian won five gems in a row and probably sought second group victory. When Sharapova broke Halep 5: 1, the youngest fans could already take place in line for autographs.

Last gems, however, were worthy of the WTA Championships. Halep with nothing to lose, threw herself into a frantic chase. From state 1: 5 twice broke Sharapova when this served for the match, and became 4: 5.

– You’re tough! – Motivated by a Russian called in a break in a tennis coach Sven Groeneveld Sharapova. And in the most difficult as it seemed, the tenth gemi when Halep she could make up for the loss, Sharapova was able to break it by reporting serious adherence to the final victory in Singapore.

What has to happen on Thursday? We do not know yet what will be the order of meetings, but the basic requirement is that Agnieszka Radwanska will need to beat Simona Halep in straight sets mandatory and the second time keep our fingers crossed for Maria Sharapova in the match against Flavia Pennetta. If Russian woman to win without conceding a set, come from a group together with Radwanska. If you will be 2: 1, the issue of promotion will be decided between Radwanska and Pennetta on the basis of the balance sets.
