APIA International, Sydney, - Quarter - Finals


The quarter finals for the APIA International took place yesterday and Madison Keys played Bethanie Mattek Sands.

Sadly Bethanie was unable to complete this match due to an injury. I felt bad for Bethanie who had come through some tough qualifying matches and beat the defending champion Aganieska Radwanska in the first round. 

Bethanie retirement from the match meant that Madison progressed to the semi-finals.

 For Madison it has been a great start to the tennis year and at this stage she has nothing to lose so she can really go for it in semi-finals. 

Elsewhere Tsevtana Pironkova beat Sara Errani in straight sets. This was good win for Tsevtana who tends to shine at Wimbledon so it's good to see she has playing so well and early in the season.

Angelique Kerber and Petra Kivitova are made it to the Semi-Finals and both won their quarter final matches in straight set.
