World No. 9 Bianca Andreescu took on Chinese Taipei’s Su-Wei Hsieh in the second round of the Australian Open today. However, the Canadian was dismantled by the world’s 68th best player and lost the match in straight sets, 6-3 6-2. The match lasted for one hour and twenty-three minutes. 

Prior to today’s match, they played once, with the match going in the Canadian’s favor. During the match today, Andreescu managed to win only 26% of her second serve point, which eventually led to her downfall in the match. She even hit 25 unforced errors that proved costly. At the end of the match, Hsieh won 60 points compared to her opponent’s 48 points. 

Bianca Andreescu: “I Have Zero Worries About My Health”

After the match, Bianca stated that she is feeling physically fine and she is going to continue following the same routine that she’s been following. Andreescu stated, “No, not at all. I have zero worries about my health and I’m going to continue doing what I’ve been doing because obviously, it’s working. But like I said if I’m healthy I’m going to be playing. Obviously, I want to be careful but I will be playing.”

In her previous match, the Candian star beat Romania’s Mihaela Buzarnescu in a close contest. The match lasted over two hours and Bianca emerged victorious in three sets 6-2 4-6 6-3. 

In last year’s Australian Open, the 20-year-old didn’t feature as she suffered from a knee injury. Due to the injury, she did not compete in any of the Grand Slam events held last season. Bianca returned back on Tour recently at this year’s first Major. 

In the earlier round, the 35-year-old Chinese Taipei player beat Bulgarian player Tsvetana Pironkova in straight sets, in a match that lasted 76 minutes. After beating Andreescu today, Su-Wei Hsieh will play the Italian professional Sara Errani in the third round on Friday.
