Petra Martic took on World No.1 Victoria Azarenka in one of the quarterfinals at the Generali Ladies Linz.
Petra Martic has had her first two Top 10 victories this year, against Marion Bartoli and Petra Kvitova.
But there's a reason Victoria Azarenka is ranked No.1 and has more wins than anyone on the WTA this year.
Victoria Azarenka broke Petra Martic five times and was never really in trouble to record a 62 62 victory.
Victoria Azarenka scored her WTA-leading 65th match win of the year then hit tennis balls into the crowd.
Victoria Azarenka improved to 11-1 in quarterfinals this year, the loss coming to Marion Bartoli in Miami.
Victoria Azarenka is 8-2 in semifinals this season, losing to Serena Williams at Wimbledon and the Olympics.
Victoria Azarenka will face Irina-Camelia Begu in the semifinals and leads that head-to-head series, 3-0.
After the World No.1 did her on-court interview and hit the balls into the crowd, a dance troupe performed.
Inspired by the dance troupe, Victoria Azarenka busted a move courtside, much to the delight of the crowd.
