Danielle Collins is continuing to turn down every other opponent falling in her way at the Madrid Open. After securing a massive win in Miami, the fans were quite excited to see her form and it seems like she is projecting the show that they wished to binge. In her recent showdown against Jaqueline Cristian, the 30-year-old managed to secure another hard-fought victory. However, it was a confident reaction in the middle of the showdown that made highlights.

Collins seemed to be struggling against her Romanian opponent soon after the match started. While Christian easily managed to get the first set in her name, her body language clearly depicted a boost in her confidence. Soon after the second set began and the scoreboard depicted an even situation of 2-2, Danielle Collins disappointed herself with a double fault.

As soon as the ball failed to cross the net on her second attempt, her opponent burst out with excitement, celebrating the double fault with a loud, “yessss” call. Collins, being the boss of her own league, turned towards Cristian in order to give a solid reply but somehow decided to revert.

Stopping herself to avoid any heated arguments, the American WTA star decided to reply with her racket and therefore ended up getting the second set and finally the showdown in her name. The incident not only showed Collins’ potential to rise up from a situation of immense pressure along with showcasing her ability to keep her calm.

Although she managed to avoid intensity in this match, it still remains to be seen if things will be the same in her upcoming showdown against Aryna Sabalenka. However, this wasn’t the only incident at the Madrid Open that caught the attention of the fans.
