The tennis fans that watched the exclusive show match between superstars Maria Sharapova and Andre Agassi in front of the Porsche Museum in Zuffenhausen were also thrilled.
Stuttgart has once again been turned into the tennis capital of Germany by the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix. At last year’s tournament, Lucie Safarova played an almost record-breaking three hour 23 minute first round match against Maria Sharapova in the Porsche Arena.
This time around however, the Czech Fed Cup winner only needed just over one and a half hours to beat qualifier Kateryna Bondarenko from the Ukraine 7-6, 6-4. “I can still vividly remember the match with Maria,” said Lucie Safarova, the world No. 13, after her match against the No. 140. “For me it was the longest of my career – I unfortunately didn’t win it.
” This year Lucie Safarova could get the chance to gain revenge – but only if the two reach the final.
