The hot shot video was being watched 30,000 times, almost three times more than the next ranked shot from the match opposing Venus Williams (USA) and Angelique Kerber (Germany) in Montreal. With only one day before this match, Halep also managed to climb up to the second position in the WTA ranking, which is her best rank so far.
More than that, Halep has another hot shot in the top five, ranked 4th, from when she played against Agnieszka Radwanska in Indian Wells. However, the Polish player was the one to claim the victory back then, with the score of 6-3, 6-4. AGERPRES
