Simona Halep arrived for the first time at the Australian Open Grand Slam final and has a great chance of winning her first Grand Slam tournament.
Halep defeated Kerber (6-3, 4-6, 9-7) after a new epic confrontation that kept millions of people out of breath to the end. Halep lost two match balls, but then she also recovered two match balls, a moment that gave her trust to come back and qualify for the grand finale.
Halep says he has escaped the negativity that has dragged her down in recent years, and she thinks that now only progress in her career is taking place.
On Saturday, in the final in Melbourne, Halep will face Danish Caroline Wozniacki, the world's second number, which passed on Thursday by Belgian Elise Mertens 6-3, 7-6 (7/2).
The winner of this final will be ranked the first place on the WTA standings.
Wozniacki has 4-2 in direct Halep matches, in front of which has won in the last 3 confrontations. Halep defeated in 2013 in the semifinals at New Haven, with 6-2, 7-5, and in 2015 in the semifinals in Dubai with 2-6, 6-1, 6-1. Danish won in 2012 in eighths at Dubai with 6-2, 6-3 in 2015, in the semifinals at Stuttgart with 7-5, 5-7, 6-2, in 2017 in quarter-finals at Eastbourne with 5-7 , 6-4, 6-1 and the Singapore Championship Tournament in the group with 6-0, 6-2.
Even if she is the world's first player on October 9, 2017 and has advanced in Final to the First Grand Slam of the Year, Simona Halep is still challenged by some people who, to be elegant, can only be described as "hateri" .
We hope that Simona Halep will win this final to close the mouths of those who still do not believe in her, although she has often proved to be the real fighter and a great champion.
