Radwanska's Latest Web Gem



Agnieszka Radwanska made short work of Monica Niculescu to advance to the round of 16 at the BNP Paribas Open and, as is typically the case, the one they call simply "The Ninja" produced some extra special highlight reel material (see video above). It seems that Radwanska just can’t help herself. For some, tennis runs in their blood. For Radwanska, breathtaking artistry while playing tennis runs in her blood.

She was asked about her latest web gem -- a running forehand winner (set up by a desperately creative running lob) that flummoxed Niculescu, in press.

“It's just pretty much the reaction and things that I do on court,” she said. “I think it is the way I play.”

Reporters wanted to know if she had a favorite from her vast volumes of hot shots.

“I definitely have a couple of favorite ones. Also a couple of ones I play against Vinci in Doha; couple of ones as well from Singapore," she said. "But then everything is just happening so fast and I always have like couple of them each tournament, so I am even forgetting what happen in last few months. That would be good to have actually those highlights on internet that I can watch again and see what I did.

And Radwanska's all-time favorite? Well, it’s indisputable, isn’t it? Nearly four million YouTube views wouldn’t lie, would they?

“I think the Miami is I think something that nobody did before, so I think I will pick the Miami one, volley from the back that I turned around.” (see below)



Radwanska will face Jelena Jankovic or CoCo Vandeweghe in the next round. Other early winners on Sunday were Kateryna Bondarenko, who ousted fellow Ukrainian Lesia Tsurenko in a third-set tiebreaker and Nicole Gibbs, who downed Yaroslava Shvedova in straight sets.
