Anna breezes into fourth round
September 1, 2007
Anna confidently moved into round four of the USwith a comfortable 6-2, 6-3 victory over the No. 26 seed Sania Mirza in only 53 minutes
6 seed hit a forehand winner to break Mirza's first service game of the match and then broke again in the last game of the set when Mirza hit a forehand long after having denied Anna on two prior set points.
Mirza fell behind 5-1 in the second set before rallying, breaking when Anna sent a backhand wide and surviving match point when the 20-year old sent a forehand wide.
Anna held serve to end the match after 53 minutes on a forehand winner, advancing to a round of 16 match against Austria's Tamira Paszek.
Anna ousted Mirza from the Moorilla Hobart International in the semi-finals in January, and then defeated her again in a Cincinnati semi-final and the Stanford final in July.
She won the title in each of those tournaments.
