Barty takes down Svitolina to reach second consecutive Miami Open final – WTA Tennis
Behind five breaks of serve, Ashleigh Barty rolled into the Miami Open final with a straight-sets win vs. Elina Svitolina.
After securing the WTAs No.1 ranking for at least another month, Ashleigh Barty fittingly looked like the best player in the world.
She scuffled by her enormous standards in previous matches at the Miami Open, seeing three of them go the distance. But Thursday, against No.5-seeded Elina Svitolina, there was never even a whiff of doubt.
Barty, playing with intelligence, athleticism and a breathtaking diversity of shot, won 6-3, 6-3. Was this her best match in Miami?
Yeah, I think it was, she said…
