Martincova was surely feeling helpless at this point of time. She tried her best but Krejcikova was just playing brilliantly well. She broke yet again, and then won her service game too and was now just two games away from winning the Prague Open 2021 title.

What was incredible was that she broke for the third consecutive time in the third set and was now close to a bagel. She didn’t miss the bagel, conquered the second set in minutes, and thus, won the match, and the Prague Open 2021 title. Intriguingly, she also won 11 straight games in the match.
