Tennis.World.Craze's WTA Match of the Year #2 Angelique Kerber vs Petra Kvitova

Angelique Kerber 7-6 (12-10), 5-7, 4-6 Petra Kvitova (Wuhan Open R3)

Kerber came into the match as the big favourite, especially when she just won the US Open and became the World No.1, defeating Kvitova along the way. This was Kerber’s first tournament as the new World No.1, and she would want to cement her position at the top with a strong showing in Wuhan.

Tennis.World.Craze's WTA Match of the Year #3 Sloane Stephens vs Dominika Cibulkova

Sloane Stephens 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 (7-5) Dominika Cibulkova (Acapulco Final) 

This match was Stephens’ 2^nd final of the year, having previously winning the title in Auckland earlier in January. Stephens is unbeaten in finals, having won all 2 of her finals in her career. Cibulkova, who is ranked 66^th, was a member of the Top 10 and have reached the Australian Open final in 2014 before suffering from an Achilles injury that kept her out of action for close to half a year.

Tennis.World.Craze's WTA Match of the Year #4 Serena Williams vs Angelique Kerber

Serena Williams 4-6, 6-3, 4-6 Angelique Kerber (Australian Open Final)

Serena Williams comes into the match as the big favourite, as she goes for her 22^nd Grand Slam title against a left-handed opponent in Angelique Kerber, whom she has a 5-1 head to head record advantage over. The only time Williams faced a left-handed player in a Grand Slam final was against Lucie Safarova at the 2015 French Open, and she faced a lot of problems against Safarova. Would it be the same against Kerber? Would Kerber, participating in her 1^st ever Grand Slam final, feel the pressure?

Tennis.World.Craze's WTA Match of the Year #5 Svetlana Kuznetsova vs Agnieszka Radwanska

Svetlana Kuznetsova 7-5, 1-6, 7-5 Agnieszka Radwanska (Singapore WTA Finals RR)

These two players had had some tough matches in the past, with their most recent encounter being in Wuhan where Kuznetsova prevailed in a 2 hours and 51 minutes thriller after saving a match point. Their head-to-head may come to as a surprise to some people, as it stands at 12-4 to Kuznetsova’s advantage. In 2 of their past 3 meetings, the winner have saved match points and won the match. Radwanska knew that in order to win this match, she had had to be more offensive and attack on the slow second serves of Kuznetsova. For Kuznetsova, it would be tough to adapt to the conditions of the Singapore Indoor Stadium Court as she only arrived in Singapore on Sunday after she triumphed in Moscow to be able to qualify for this event. However, Kuznetsova, known for her agility and good stamina, has won the most 3 set matches on the WTA Tour this year despite her age, and thus fatigue should not be of a major problem for her.

Tennis.World.Craze's WTA Match of the Year #6 Roberta Vinci vs Agnieszka Radwanska

Roberta Vinci 6-3, 2-6, 3-6 Agnieszka Radwanska (Doha QF)

This match is definitely 1 of the best matches in the year, with both players winning more than 60 net points combined in the match, which can be considered very impressive. Both players also had more winners than unforced errors, making it feel like the points were being won than being lost.
