Barty pushed by Romanian, but victorious after long lay-off – Sydney Morning Herald
Ashleigh Barty had played an exhibition match against Simona Halep in Adelaide last week and lost, and was forced to earn every point early against the world No.93….
Indeed, the scoreline looks like Barty won in a canter, but she was forced to work quite hard through the whole match.
There were cobwebs too, with Barty double faulting twice in the final game of the match, and once on match point.
I think overall I felt pretty good, Barty said.
I think Ana did an exceptional job in making me play to a very high standard. I knew right from the first point I was going to have to be ready tonight and switched on straight away.
That was really nice to have that challenge…
