Svetlana Kuznetsova and Francesca Schiavone will revisit their marathon Australian Open match when the two face off in Dubai. A few weeks ago, Schiavone took down Kuznetsova in four hours and 44 minutes in the longest women’s match in Grand Slam history.
"I think every single person who knows me watch that match in Melbourne came to me and said it was a great match," Kuznetsova said. "This is going to be another very hard match—but I have nothing to lose. She's the favorite. The pressure is on her this time."—Matthew Cronin
