Not a shred of doubt on Barty’s part against Giorgi

World No.1 Ashleigh Barty unhesitatingly settled her third-round match at the Australian Open against Camila Giorgi 6-2, 6-3 on time.

Without having any kind of rush in her first two dates against players who came from the qualifying phase, the World No.1 faced her first clash against a dangerous player like the Italian who, for example, last year became champion of an entire WTA 1000 as is Canada. It was the third time they met and the Australian dominated with a 2-0. Also, his last quote comes from this same scenario in the year 2018, and Barty fixed it in three parts.

Ashleigh managed to put ground in the middle very soon. Taking advantage of her particularity of always entering the game with the highest gears on, she surprised the Italian player in that first serve she had to perform at the Rod Laver Arena. Camila was seen as soon as she started with the score very against her but far from getting carried away, she continued very involved. He took his turns to serve and also a 0-40 that could help him balance the appointment. It was not enough and with the Australian placing that 2-5, it was the rest when the No.1 in the world, solved that first set in 34 minutes.

The start of the second quarter provided equality with both without giving the rest opportunities. Camila was showing high-level tennis and a stable mentality despite the great difficulty she had on the other side of the court. Still, Barty’s confidence is hard to break and the effectiveness he commands is great. Therefore, he perfectly chose the moments that it was possible to approach the Italian and placed the 4-2 in his favor. Then, his confirmation to place 2-5 took barely a minute.

The Italian went ahead with her turn to serve, and immediately afterwards the Australian did not panic anywhere. Barty showed intact authority to defeat Giorgi at the Australian Open.
