In a match suspended before the end of the first set because of rain and darkness, and hence resumed today, the 2012 finalist had very little to be afraid of during the match, as the Romanian looked completely stunned by the situation.

Mitu, who was at her very first main draw appearance in a slam, said before the match to have surprised herself with the qualification as an injury did not let her train on grass until the day before the beginning of the qualification matches.

The Romanian’s game showed to be clearly suitable for the surface as her shots have the power and are flat enough to cause trouble, but the nerves caused her to be too inconsistent to bother the amazing defence of the Pole.

Radwanska resumed her match looking as if she really wanted to spend the least time possible on court, as from 4-2 she won seven consecutive games to close the first set and fly 5-0 in the second.

Mitu tried a mild reaction and hold her serve, but it all simply delayed the inevitable.

For Radwanska, it remains a very good performance on serve, with seven aces, and some fantastic winners from the baseline while bending down on her knees.

The fourth seed will face Casey Dellacqua in round two, which will definitely test her condition as the Australian as looked as good as never before on grass.
