A few months ago, in the first episode of the Blonde vs the Brunette battle, blonde Daniela Hantuchova came back from a set down to reach the final of the Birmingham grass-court event. The fortnight of Miami though gave brunette Ana Ivanovic a shoot at revenge. And she took full advantage of it, cruising through a 6-2,7-6 win to set things straight in this interesting rivalry.
The funny aspect of such a battle consists in the similarities between the two players. On top of being tall, slim and long haired, they are both ambassadors of the AdiZero line, thus they wear the same outfits. The Serb actually referred to this in her post-match interview. "It's pretty funny - we were joking, at least one was blonde and
one was brunette. It would be a problem if I played Sorana," Ivanovic
said. "But seriously, it is a little bit strange. You look up and see
yourself. It's like, 'Is that a mirror?'" I would say it's quite a mirror though, as there is enough to separate the Serb from anyone on the tour, but it must be an awkward situation to be in.
