RADWANSKA 4-6 4-6 KONJUH: GAME, SET, MATCH! Konjuh starts with another huge first serve before something goes wrong with the sound system on serve and it scares the life out of her! Great retrieving from Radwanska forces Konjuh to net but another big serve edges her ahead again. A fabulous backhand winner up the line brings two match points and Radwanska nets a second serve and Ana Konjah becomes the first Croatian woman to reach the quarter finals of a major since Iva Majoli. At 18 years of age!

RADWANSKA 4-6 4-5 KONJUH: BREAK! Konjuh finds the line with a brilliant angle on a backhand return winner and then forces Radwanska to net on the backhand. A forehand crosscourt winner brings three break points but a terrible drop shot attempt bounces before the net! Not the best choice of shot. It matters not as a huge backhand and put away takes the break. She will serve for the biggest win of her life. No pressure!
