Halep seemed to be moving freely, after she said a back injury surfaced in a 6-2 6-1 loss to Ekaterina Alexandrova in last week’s quarterfinals of the Gippsland Trophy at the same venue.
Halep never gave the world No.140 any time to settle, dropping a mere two points in the first three games. Cabrera mirrors Halep’s stature and baseline game but routinely came out second-best, much to the chagrin of her family watching in the stands.
That included on a 19-shot rally at 4-1, 15-0, when Halep’s drop shot prompted Cabrera to send her forehand reply wide. A fist pump ensued.
