Roland Garros

Paris FRA, 27.05. – 10.06.2012 / GS clay

KAIA KANEPI — IRINA-CAMELIA BEGU / 59. ROU /

6:4 | 6:1

Kaia won

Kaia won and will meet Caroline Wozniacki (DEN, WTA 9) in the next round.

Kaia's own words: "It was difficult in the beginning, the opponent played very well and I made mistakes while attacking. Afterwards I was told that she did not make any mistakes before it was 2:4. Then she also started to make some mistakes and I started to play better. The first two games of the second set were very long and she also had her opportunities, at the end I managed to win both games. It was good. It gives confidence when you win long games. After that I played with more bravely and had more confidence, I think she broke.

If I play good and patient with Wozniacki, then it will be a good match. I have played with her many times and I think there will not be any surprises for me in her game."

The third round match will be played on Saturday.

Kaia also continues on the doubles tournament with Shuai Zhang and tomorrow they will go against the French girls Foretz Gacon - Kristina Mladenovic. The match is scheduled as the third match at court number three.
