TORONTO — Bianca Andreescu's fatigue quickly turned into frustration on Wednesday when she felt her second-round Rogers Cup match slipping away from her in the third set.Andreescu withstood a marathon afternoon match to advance to the third round of the Rogers Cup, edging Russia's Daria Kasatkina 5-7, 6-2, 7-5 in two hours 40 minutes on the Aviva Centre's centre court.
"In those moments, I just let loose, really," Andreescu said of playing from behind."I know when I do that I play my best tennis. It's when I just stay relaxed and I go for my shots.The match was Andreescu's second straight three-setter of the tournament. She had advanced to the second round by beating Eugenie Bouchard of Westmount, Que., in a lengthy all-Canadian centre-court clash Tuesday night.
Andreescu began the year at No. 107 and skyrocketed up the standings thanks to a fantastic start to the season — which included her first WTA title at Indian Wells in March. She reached a career-high No. 22 in May. "It was a very, very tough one," said Halep, who'll face Svetlana Kuznetsova in the third round."I didn't feel 100 per cent ready for the tournament because I had a long break .Kuznetsova beat Donna Vekic to advance.
