Do not remember the end precisely because of its technical level or large shocks, although it has been the most disputed in recent years following recent titles Justine Henin. Ivanovic showed more mettle and experience before a Russian very baffled and past revolutions, just what had happened to him Ivanovic only a year ago.

A break in the first game of the meeting put forward to serbia, which used its right to draw from the runway to Safina and also surprised with a powerful blow at the beginning of the game.

Quickly and without much history it was 4-1 in favour of Ivanovic, before a Dinara Safina to which no one to fall right. A coup angled from side to side of the track and one left put the maximum advantage on the scoreboard and set totally in the face for serbia.

But Safina is a fighter, like his brother. The same gestures of great Marat could see on the face of the young Russian tennis player, that based on self-esteem and anger with his right arm equaled the scoreboard to four. The worst thing was that the Russians are yearning for uncontrolled in the next game and fell by Dinara that would draw definitive (6-4).

The second manga began more matched. Safina threw the rest and was more aggressive, but never connect several good blows followed. Too many mistakes not passed bill forced him to Russia, which still fought to 4-3. By then Ivanovic already had a break advantage and was limited to live on incomes.

Much has talked itself to the Russian end, desperate, unable to find a way to harm his rival. The 5-3 was a slab of Ivanovic and Safina too heavy, smashed physically handed over the party in next game (6-3).

Finally Ana Ivanovic won a Grand Slam final after three attempts. The serbia, new queen of tennis world number one held her in the best possible way and now has the experience it lacked in big events. A warning for the rest of the circuit.
