6-2, 4-6, 6-4 (Sara is shown holding the ballware en sombrero after the match). Sara's prize is $40,000; Carla's prize is $20,000. Sara said: "In the first set the ball was much more live and the points were going much quicker, and I just played an incredible set. Even in the second set until 2-0 for me, 15-40 on her serve, I was in control, playing very aggressively. But the ball started getting heavier and the rallies were getting much tougher, and also she started to play much better. It got very difficult at the end." WTA story Carla said: "I have no reason to be sad - she just played better than me. She was unbeatable tonight. But I'm still satisfied. This is a great tournament and I had a great week here." Sara now leads Carla 5-3 in career matches. Their previous meeting was in January on a Plexicushion hardcourt in the 1st round of the Australian Open, when Carla defeated Sara 6-4, 6-4.

Monica's prize is $40,000; Olga's prize is $20,000.
Monica said: "It got very tough at the end. But I just kept fighting. I knew I had to be more aggressive but still think a lot on the court, and I was able to gain control of the match at the end again. I was very tired, so I am very happy I could win tonight." WTA story
