Radwanska Wins On IPTL Debut

Radwanska Wins On IPTL Debut

  • Posted: Dec 11, 2015

World No.5 Agnieszka Radwanska played her first set since winning the BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore presented by SC Global, and with the help of WTA Finals doubles champ Sania Mirza, the Micromax Indian Aces earned a seamless 30-12 victory over the Philippine Mavericks.

Playing at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium in New Dehli, Radwanska was ruthlessly efficient in her set of women’s singles, dispatching Jarmila Gajdosova – who was stepping in for World No.1 Serena Williams – in 17 minutes, 6-1. One set before, Mirza had paired with Rohan Bopanna to defeat Ajla Tomljanovic and Treat Huey, 6-2, in 22 minutes.

Earlier in the night, the Legendari Japan Warriors, led by Kurumi Nara and Mirjana Lucic-Baroni, upset the OBI UAE Royals, which were headlined by Ana Ivanovic and Kristina Mladenovic, 24-21. Ivanovic was able to earn a 6-2 set of women’s singles as the Warriors switched between Nara and Lucic-Baroni in substitutions, but while Lucic-Baroni and Pierre-Hugues Herbert clinched the match with a 6-2 set of mixed doubles, Mladenovic won the night with another of her now-signature tweeners.
