Tsvetana Pironkova started her participation in this year’s “Roland Garros” in a brilliant way. The Bulgarian woman who participated with a “wild card” definitely scored 95 at the World Cup Andrea Petkovic with 6: 3, 6: 3. The victory was achieved in exactly one hour and fourteen minutes.

The match was delayed for more than two hours due to heavy rain in Paris, making the battle on Court 4 extremely difficult. However, our second racket demonstrates balanced tennis, transferring its sensational performance from the US Open to the glue of the French capital.
The first half was marked by many errors not caused by Petkovic. The German was not convincing and was on duty. Pironkova respected her enough with her backhand play and welcome, which finally brought success on set with 6: 3.

The second unfolded identically. Pironkova methodically built her lead, and even in her moments of hesitation, her opponent found it difficult to take advantage of her weak defense and a disappointing number of unprovoked errors. This was the golden opportunity for Tsveti, who thanks to her self-confidence won the final part with 6: 3.
Statistically, throughout the match, Pironkova made only one ace and did not make a single double error. They were also impressed with 62% of their second serve points. She also made 23 winners against 12 of her rival.

In the next test, for which she has already won another 84,000 euros, Pironkova will face a great test. Most likely, the Plovdiv woman will meet Serena Williams, who will face Philip Shatrie on the court later today, against another American: Christie Ann.
