Kim Clijsters v Sam Stosur – US Open live tennis
Kim Clijsters opens the night session against Sam Stosur in the US Open quarter-finals.
You can bet live in-play on the US Open at bet365
Much will depend on how Stosur has recovered from her marathon fourth round encounter with Elena Dementieva. The Aussie has not been at her best but she’s toughing out wins and is enjoying by far her best ever run at the US Open. She sealed a gutsy 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 late night win over the Russian on Sunday in a match where it seemed almost impossible for either player to hold serve.
However she faces even more of a step up in class against defending champion Clijsters who is heavy favourite to go on and make the final. However the Belgian will be well aware that the path to the final seemed clear for her at both the Aussie Open and Wimbledon this year and her game fell apart badly in key matches.
However if Clijsters keeps focus she should win this one in straight sets. She is a better mover and has a far better backhand than Stosur. Crucially she also possesses the accuracy from the back of the court to expose the Aussie’s weakness.
Unless Stosur serves out of her mind this is likely to go the same way as her other three matches with Clijsters which the Belgian has all won in straight sets on hard courts, including a 6-3, 7-5 win in Miami earlier this year.
