Okay, so, let’s talk about that match between Badosa and Azarenka. Man, what a rollercoaster that was!
First off, I gotta say, I spent the whole day preparing for this. I started by checking out the schedules on Flashscore, trying to figure out when the match would even be. It said the match would be on October 17, and I marked my calendar. Then, I dug around to see if I could find any live streams, and it looked like Watch ESPN was the place to go. Perfect!
So I got everything ready, you know, snacks, drinks, the whole nine yards. Then the moment came, and I jumped onto the Watch ESPN site. The match was intense, a real nail-biter.
It went back and forth, like a tug-of-war. It was a three-set thriller. I remember reading somewhere that Azarenka saved eight of 13 break points, which is pretty wild. They both played their hearts out, hitting some crazy shots and covering the court like lightning.
Then I saw on the BNP Paribas Open 2021 final match stats that Badosa won. The final score was something like 7-6, 2-6, 7-6. It felt like it lasted forever, but it was worth it.
I recall reading from Eurosport that it was Badosa who won the match in the end. I was also looking for some commentary, and it turns out BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra had some coverage of the match. I tuned in to listen for a bit, which was nice.
I even checked out the WTA Guadalajara stuff on Eurosport later, just to see the stats and highlights again. I tried to find that match on Eurosport too but couldn’t find it. I guess it was held in a different stadium.
After the match, I spent a good chunk of time just going over everything again, you know, replaying the key moments in my head. This match will definitely be one to remember, that’s for sure!
