Bizony ám és valóban ajándékba kapott egy kört, aminek most úgy örülök, mint egy gyöngyöző sörnek 40 fokban.
LONDON, England - Flavia Pennetta pulled off a comeback to remember at Wimbledon on Friday, rallying from a 6-0 blowout in the first set to edge No.29 seed Alizé Cornet in a thriller, 06 76(4) 62.
Pennetta had won all three of the pair's previous meetings but looked completely down and out in this one, dropping the first set in just 20 minutes and losing the first game of the second set to fall behind 60 10. She caught fire from there, winning five games in a row to build a 5-1 lead, but Cornet caught back up, winning the next five games and eventually building a 3-0 lead in the second set breaker.
That's when the former Top 10 player in Pennetta came alive again, hitting crisply and aggressively to win seven of the next eight points and sneak out the set, and rolling through the third as well.
"I think I started really tight in the beginning of the match. I wasn't pushing her at all, like I didn't hit a good ball from the beginning," Pennetta said. "After the first set I just tried to hit the ball more and more, I started getting more power and my serve started working a little better as well. I really felt in the second set I was really enjoying it a little bit more and playing my tennis. And the tie-break was crazy.
"I have to say I'm really happy about this match today."
It has been a rough go of things over the last year for Pennetta. A former World No.10 who was ranked in the Top 20 early last year, she suffered a right wrist injury last April and by August it was too much to bear - she withdrew from all tournaments for the next six months, including Grand Slams at the US Open and Australian Open, underwent surgery in the fall and returned to action this February.
