Maybe we didn't expect that Kvitova was serious this time, only lost three sets in the doha final, and won the second crown.
The opponent Mugurazza is a Grand Slam champion, and the Grand Slam champions often become the focus of the game. Mugulaza played very well at the Australian Open this year, but was helplessly reversed by Naomi Osaka, who later won the championship, and stopped in the round of sixteen. Now that she has reached the final in Doha, it can be seen that she is in good shape. Kvitova stopped in the second round of the Australian Open.
But the Czechs and Spaniards' H2H was 4:1 and four straight wins. They met again in the final in Doha after a gap of three years, this time the Czech swept the opponent 6-2, 6-1 to win five consecutive victories. Apparently, in the violent battle, Kvitova firmly controlled the game and won the game without suspense.
One of the problems with the match was that the wind was strong, the tennis ball was affected, and the two players were also affected, but this time Mugurazza's performance failed, and Kvitova was not afraid of the wind, "riding the wind and waves", and took the victory and the championship into the bag.
Kvitova's career has once again refreshed the stats, with Kvitova winning the trophy for the first time since Stuttgart in 2019. 28th career title, 20th win in Doha, 2nd crown in Doha! Muguruza's final record has changed to 7 wins and 7 losses, and the nearly two-year championship drought continues.
Even more significant is Kvitova's victory on her last day at the age of 30! Born on March 8, 1990, the girl once turned out to be the first post-90s to win a Grand Slam women's singles title, which is a great honor. Now that she has won the championship on March 7, the championship is a birthday gift, and it is really meaningful to dedicate the championship to her tomorrow, who is about to turn 31.
The 30-year-old former Kvitova won 28 titles and is fourth among active players (the top three are Serena Williams 73, Serena Williams 49, Andríks 41), two of which are Wimbledon titles, which are her proudest achievements. So after the age of 30, does Kvitova dare to win a Grand Slam title again?
Petra, tomorrow is your birthday, I wish you a happy birthday, continue to ride the wind and waves, laughing girl. (Source: Tennis House Author: Stray Rabbit)
