salvage that one Roose a lot of resistance from bronzetti in that final Point yeah nicely put away on the forehand for Roose on the winner you good yeah it did catch the line bronzetti looked a little bit surprised by yeah nicely put away just inside the Baseline break point is saved by bronzetti and an early break of serve for Aran scarus as she opens up a two of lead yeah real statement [Applause] that yeah just want it look though this might turn and Roose once again sealing it very quickly and Roose also just seems to be stri yeah and it's really well disguised ground strokes as well from that's well saved one of them anyway y overdoing it on the forehand once again bronzetti really oh deal just long and bronzetti grateful to see it Go long as well and now this is an opport yeah bronzetti back in business converting her second break point and especially on serve as well although Bron zetti is coping 4 30 yeah the scoreboard is slightly behind there it is Advantage Roose they you see the break points is there for the taking now back on track and reestablishing that four game cushion as well yeah not by much Roose just having a little look at the uh sideline good yeah a Long Way north of that service line and Bron zetti this time yeah good aggression on the forehand from orus to just get involved and a wonderful serve down the middle as well she's chanced her arm with that serve down the middle on while the serve out wide came on the second serve but were very good indeed a semi-finalist in Chicago in the 125 as r fires a a backand well that was uh devastatingly short and nowhere near that one either the angles are paying dividends here for that was well played by Roose needed the error but first set point comes and goes just seemed to be a lot of time between that first and second yeah that one was sailing from the word go wasn't it yeah really attacked the second serve there Roose but unable to find a way through [Music] and rat in 2023 yeah great play from maruse really have to say two very aw just wide and there we saw another example of it bronzetti was way out of picture on a and with her third set point aransu yeah nice wrong footing forehand winner from Roose well that return of serve could have gone anywhere and it could have landed anywhere and it was a slightly awkward but not for bronzetti still a break point to find yeah well reached slightly awkward stretch that one for slightly awkward stretch that one for bronti but she does well just seem to be leaning back the yeah great serve again bronzetti on the stretch always mentioned earlier yeah and the short ball once again is punished but a switch to Clay in the um aftermath of her second round defeat at Wimbledon 61 against Anna blink a short while ago w s knew the yeah nicely coming forward had every right to do so and puts away the winner very nicely on the volley Roa times his Roose seems Al things up a little bit more and there once again again a much reduced first serve but the uh again the placement was absolutely perfect from Roose and it's level again at two games all 17 years old when she claimed that particular yeah credit to bronzetti for the pickup as well once again Roose really keeping that ball very low over the net B yeah real depth and real pace yeah took a chance on the return but it just about paid off it just stayed within the confines of the double F and Roose all of a sudden her oh well played bronti excellent way to save that break point and Roose in position once again a shame again from ruse's point of view she did so well to stay in the rally as [Music] well bronet spe wide certainly very tight but Roose has leveled at three games all and on we go in this second set now well put away again on that forehand it's really been a very solid weapon for Rooster Day oh great angles again from Roose once again you just saw there was yeah and there's the first real a that's an Exquisite drop shot on the angle again from Roose and that's a really big point one of them in the bag yeah she's done well on the points where the Ballers Dro short as Roose didn't con oh now that was close I have to say I think bronzetti will be relieved to come away and once again bronzetti not giving too much away on serve she's had a couple of juice games on serve in this second set but otherwise couple of holes to love and just the one point G zetti harboring real hopes of forcing a decid it 45 every now and then Rus is able to dig out these big that's drifting yeah likewise that's drifting from bronzetti as well real good tip for tat well she did the bulk of the running in that rally as well oh well played broni gorgeous backhand winner crosscourt State yeah put away emphatically once again just had too much on that forehand once again oh again Roost really had the measure of bronzetti there much yeah great serve out wide again as soon as that one landed you just felt though bronzetti would be working hard to and long on the return and Roose for a sixth time in this second set is able to level things up and it means we are heading to the tie break
