Video Summary
AI GeneratedAnna Kalinskaya has advanced to the round of 16 in New York for the first time in her career. Despite a shaky serve and a rollercoaster match, her superior movement and aggressive ball-striking allowed her to overcome her opponent in a hard-fought contest that went the distance.
Oh, that's good anticipation. Read that point nicely.
Well, the curtain down on his career at the majors, of course, with the defeat last night.
Movement is such a massive part of what she brings to the tennis court.
She's not keeping the ball central. She's just constantly into the corners.
Now she's got one foot well inside that baseline.
Look how close she was for that.
Below 50%.
So good. She's bringing a lot of intensity into this first set.
A very clear game plan, isn't it? Just the way, look how early she's almost taking that.
Shame that it finished.
Good foot speed.
I'm so impressed with the way she's moving, not just the defense there.
And Callum Skye strikes and wraps up the first set.
Serve was shaky to say the least, but the ball striking off the ground, superb at times.
Nice combination, nice finish.
She will relish the challenge, of course, and I want a good attitude in this next game.
Oh, that's just too good. One of the best points she's played.
Yeah, I agree.
Well, also, you know, for her, she will sense that this is really critical stage of the match because you played so well.
That's one of the best points she's played.
She's smacking the ball.
Well, it's back to that old tactic of just moving the ball into the corners here.
Really almost taking the ball on the rise every time.
And there we go. Another perfect example of the sort of...
If she can get a hold here, then...
And again.
Oh, yes.
Goodness me.
That was an outstanding shot.
Kept her wrist really loose.
Oh, point to the match.
And this set is still alive.
It will.
Finished off in style.
So we are going the distance.
Inside Armstrong.
Played really well towards the end of that set.
The ball toss have returned.
The end of the set, and she was trying to just loosen up that back, and I think it's just to get that rotation on it.
Watch that carefully.
Lovely combination.
Well, people are standing up on their feet in the crowd after that get from Svitolina.
Well behind the baseline.
A dugout volley.
She's sliding into the net.
Not sure how far she was away from...
It's a beauty.
What a finish.
Probably the most peculiar point we've seen.
And it's such a low ball toss.
Coming up for it.
13.
She's hardly put a foot wrong, isn't she?
It's taking the ball by the horns.
Done it.
Anna Kaninskaya is into the last 16 in New York for the first time in her career.
What a crazy, crazy rollercoaster.
That was absolutely brilliant off the ground at times.
Lost away in the second.
And somehow, despite all the double faults in the end, they didn't matter.
