Lucia Bronzetti flies to the quarters in Guangzhou

Lucia Bronzetti doesn’t want to know about stopping in the Guangzhou WTA 250. The Rimini-based tennis player, in fact, defeated Japan&#39s Mouka Uchijima, No. 173 in the WTA ranking, with a double 6-3 after an hour and a half of play.

And to think that in the first partial to start better è Uchijima, who immediately goes up 3-1. From that moment forò Bronzetti strung five consecutive games and won the first set 6 games to 3. In the second partial, the Italian started better and won the break lead at 2-1, quickly going up 4-1. Here the Japanese tried to make a comeback, going up as high as 3-4, but Bronzetti repelled the comeback attempt, winning the last two games and closing 6-3 in the second partial as well.

In the quarters, the Italian tennis player will meet the winner of the match between Belgium’s Greet Minnen, number 68 WTA, or Britain’s Harriet Dart, number 151.
