Wozniacki downed Aleksandra at Ponte Vedra Beach

The second top player Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark crushed the Canadian Aleksandra Wozniak 6-1 6-2 on Sunday to gain the Ponte Vedra Beach WTA claycourt tournament.

Second seeded Denmark’s Wozniacki created just 14 unforced faults and succeeded to win 84 per cent of points on her first serve to lift the trophy.

Wozniacki said, “In fact my plan was to play violent and make her run, this is a huge beginning to the clay court season, a truly good start. I showed I can hit these better players.”

Wozniak, the fifth seed who had disturbed top seeded Nadia Petrova in the semi finals, went after 3-1 in the starting set and yield two more games with double faults. Wozniacki prepared the first break of the second set to lead 4-2, and Wozniak won just three points in the last two games. Wozniacki arrogate her fourth career title and her first of 2009.

Wozniacki played and performed with her right thigh bandaged for the second straight match, but she said her wounded leg no longer hurt and she sensed as fast as ever on the court.

She prescribed, “The speed is one of my pluses.”

She as well dealt superior with the warmth, after experiencing dizziness and nausea in her semi final triumph over Elena Vesnina. She reserved and kept ice bags near her chair and used them at times during the changeovers to make herself cool down.

She said, “They were defensive, I didn’t wish for the similar thing to occur today as happened Saturday.”

Frustrated Wozniak said, “I rose up short, which is coming back from a torn tendon in her right shoulder. I lost key shots and she took benefit of all my faults. You obtain so close and then lose, it is sad.”

She said,” lingering pain in her shoulder added to her six double errors. It’s getting well but still distresses every time I serve. You just try to not think about it.”
