Beatriz Haddad Maia in 3 sets.
Let's delve into this thrilling game folks. Now don't get too comfy on your seats, because we're dealing with Madison 'The Mighty' Keys vs. 'Bring it on' Beatriz Haddad Maia.
Our dear Keys has been quite the capricious performer of late. Took down Sorribes Tormo the Dynamo without blinking an eye, but unfortunately ran a bit short on luck against Mertens. Even the weather seems rustier than Keys' form. This hasn't put a dent on the jovial sportswoman, as her delicious aces against Joint and Siniakova would testify.
And if you think this is nerve-wrecking, you're in for a treat. Parading across the court is our fiery Beatriz! She hasn't missed a beat, taking down every opponent with the grace of a ballet dancer and the fierceness of a street-fighter. In her recent games, chalk off Wei, Kasatkina, Kudermetova, Tomljanovic, all marveling at the fury of Haddad Maia. While the numbers might look like love in favor of her opponents when she's done, there's no love lost on the court for sure.
Keys just might find Haddad Maia's form quite intimidating. However, given their previous exchanges, where both players tasted victory, it's practically a sizzler duet ready to be served. I would just advise to brace for a feast of immeasurable talent, tactical strokes and unyielding will.
Imagine the game like a trapeze act, balancing Haddad Maia's recent spectacular form & higher seed and Keys' history of occasional uproars. It would be foolhardy to undermine Keys, and equally perilous to disregard Haddad Maia's ravishing performances.
Hence, the masterpiece of a game is bound to keep us at the edge of our seats for some magnetic showdown of will and flair.
