At $220K PTT Pattaya Women's Open, Thailand

[R1] Sania Mirza (IND,127) bt (WC) Nicha Lertpitaksinchai (THA,902) 76(4) 75

Surprisingly long tough match of 1 hr and 52 mins ... She saved set points at 4-5 in both the sets to win ... Sania had 18 break point chances and converted 6 but Lertpitaksinchai also had 9 break point chances and she converted 5 ... Sania struggled with her serve as 1st serve percentage was 51% ... Need to play more controlled and solid game in next rounds.
