Mattek-Sands and Safarova dance again toward another title

The duo can't stop, and won't stop, shaking it to victory.

Published Mar 16, 2017

The doubles tandem of Lucie Safarova and Bethanie Mattek-Sands are no strangers to winning, and lately, dancing. On Wednesday, "Team Bucie" reached the Indian Wells semifinals with a win over Svetlana Kuznetsova and Kristina Mladenovic, and celebrated with a post-match dance.

The Tennis Channel's Sloane Stephens sat down with the world No. 1-ranked Mattek-Sands to talk about swag, Safarova and their famous Australian Open victory dance.

It's no secret that Safarova and Mattek-Sands have chemistry. They have won nine titles together including four majors. But they also clearly know how to have a good time, let loose, and share a laugh or two (as they did when they got interviewed by a room full of second graders).

Mattek-Sands and Safaraova will face Martina Hingis and Yung-Jan Chan for a spot in the final.
