On Sunday at La Costa Resort, near San Diego, California, in the final of the Mercury Insurance Open, the 2009 French Open champ, 25-year-old unseeded #21 (career-high: #2) Svetlana Kuznetsova of Russia (residence: Monte Carlo, Monaco), defeated the 2008 champ at Eastbourne, 21-year-old 4th-seeded #11 (career-high: #8) Agnieszka Radwanska from Krakow, Poland, 6-4, 6(7)-7, 6-3 (Svetlana is shown with the glassware after the match). Svetlana's prize is $107,000; Agnieszka's is $57,150. Svetlana failed to convert 4 match points in the 2nd set tiebreaker. Svetlana said: "It was like starting all over again. You let her come back, you let her see you choke. You have to be doubly stronger in the third set, and I was, because I believe I am strong enough." AP story Agnieszka said: "[Svetlana] was playing very powerful shots and she was pushing me around. It was hard to play. She's a very good baseline player. It's hard to have good rallies with her." Svetlana now leads Agnieszka 7-3 in career matches. Svetlana also won their previous meeting, on a Deco-Turf hardcourt in the final last year in Beijing, 6-2, 6-4. Barcelona-trained 2004 US Open champion Svetlana is now 13-18 in WTA singles finals; she won last year at Roland Garros, Beijing and Stuttgart, but this is the first final she had reached this year. Svetlana's 2010 singles match record is 18-12. Agnieszka is now 4-2 in WTA singles finals; she won Pattaya City, Istanbul, and Eastbourne in 2008, and reached the Beijing final last year. Agnieszka's 2010 singles match record is 27-14. |
On Sunday at Copenhagen, Denmark, in the final of the e-Boks Danish Open, this year's champion at Ponte Vedra Beach, 20-year-old top-seeded #4 (career-high: #2) Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark (residence: Monte Carlo, Monaco), defeated 7th-seeded 28-year-old #50 (career-high: #27) Klara (Koukalova) Zakopalova from Prague, Czech Republic, 6-2, 7-6(5) (Caroline is shown with the goodies after the match).
Caroline's prize is $37,000; Klara's is $19,000.
Klara said: "I was a little bit nervous in the beginning. I improved a little bit in the second set, but not enough. It's a shame for me, but Caroline was playing so consistently and not making any mistakes...
"It was a very good week for me, and it gives me a lot of confidence now going into the US Open. I'm looking forward to come back next year."
Caroline said: "It was nice to play a tournament again after a long break. I'm healthy again and I really wanted some matches...
"The crowd, as always, was great. Here in Denmark there's always lots of things for me to see and do, and it was a busy week for me, but I enjoyed it. It's nice to see so many people come and watch me play. It's great for Danish tennis. I really enjoyed my week." WTA story
Caroline and Klara had met only once before, in the quarterfinals of the Japan Open in 2007, when Caroline defeated Klara, 6-3, 2-6, 7-6(3).
2009 US Open finalist Caroline is now 8-7 in WTA singles finals; she won at Ponte Vedra Beach this year, and at New Haven, Eastbourne and Ponte Vedra Beach last year. Caroline has a 35-13 singles match record in 2010.
