Agnieszka Radwanska vs petra kvitova
Head-to-head: Kvitova leads, 6-3
Key Stat: Radwanska can take the No.2 ranking from Angelique Kerber with a trip to the semifinals at Indian Wells.
Two longtime rivals will get reacquainted on Stadium 1 on Tuesday as Petra Kvitova and agnieszka radwanska will meet for the tenth time with a spot in the bnp Paribas open semifinals on the line. Of their ten meetings, nine have come on a hardcourt, but here at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden, Radwanska seems to have done a better job at adapting to the tricky playing conditions. She's reached the quarterfinals six times - amassing a 27-9 career record at the event - but the Pole isn't satisfied with those numbers whatsoever. "Definitely I want to do better than the quarters, obviously," the 2014 runner-up said. "The goal is always to win."
As far as facing Kvitova's dangerous first-strike tactics and booming ground game, Radwanska knows she will have to have her feet moving from the get-go. "I just hope I can really play my good tennis against her, because otherwise I will be in big trouble," she said. "But I think always against her you really have to play good tennis and be careful, definitely on her serve."
