American Madison Keys put up an impressive performance against Russian Anastasia Potapova, beating her 6-3, 6-4 to reach the third round at the Australian Open. This actually is kind of the perfect test. When you are able to get out of that, you look back in a weird way youre thankful for that, Keys said post match.
I was really happy with how quickly I just bounced back [from 3-1 down in the second set], I got back in the game, and then to get back in the return game when I was down Love-40, those three games right there meant a lot to me.
Next up for Keys is Elise Mertens and the American is not taking her lightly. the American evaluated.
Shes had a great year and a half, and Im going to have to go and watch what shes been doing the last couple of matches and see if I have a good game plan for her. Speaking about how the Grand Slamse have decided the end matches in the Final Sets, she said, So I think it should be shortened, just because its so long.
I think everyone taking the initiative to change things a little bit, a step in the right direction. We will see what people like best and then maybe we can go from there.
