On Sunday in Paris, in the final of the GDF Suez Open,
the 2012 champion at Hobart, Tasmania, 22 year old #38 (career high: #31) Mona Barthel from Neumunster, Germany,
defeated
the 2012 champ at Barcelona, 25 year old 5th seeded #6 (high: #6) Sara Errani from Bologna, Italy,
7-5, 7-6(4) (Mona is shown holding the hardware after the match). Mona's prize is $117,000; Sara's prize is $62,300. Mona led 5-2 in the 2nd set, but Sara won the next three games. Mona said: "Even though I was up a set and 5-2, I knew she's a fighter and doesn't give any points away. I was a little bit nervous. It was my first final in such a big tournament and she was making it so difficult for me in the end. But I just tried to keep stepping in and going for my shots, and I had to keep telling myself I was still in a position to win the match despite all of those things." WTA story Sara said: "Mona serves so well, plays so well from the baseline and physically moves so well... I usually like to have more time to place the ball where I want but I was on a limit today, particularly on my serve. I tried my best, but she was just unbeatable today." Mona and Sara had never before met on the field of combat. Mona is now 2-1 in WTA singles finals, and has a 12-3 singles match record for the year. Sara is now 6-5 in WTA singles finals, and has a 6-4 singles match record in 2013. |
Meanwhile at Pattaya City, Thailand, in the final of the Pattaya Women's Open, the 2012 finalist at Pattaya City (and 2008 champion at Estoril, Barcelona, and Seoul), 26 year old 2nd seeded #15 (career high: #12) Maria Kirilenko from Moscow, Russia, defeated the 2011 champ at Birmingham and Dallas, 23 year old 5th seeded #36 (career high #13) Sabine Lisicki of Germany (residence: Bradenton, Florida), 5-7, 6-1, 7-6(1) (Maria is shown holding the ceramicware after the match).
Maria's prize is $40,000; Sabine's prize is $20,000.
Maria said: "I feel great. To win a title is always special, but it's even more pleasure when you win such a tough one. It was tough. Sabine played very well. I'm very happy to win this title...
"What worked best for me today was my forehand. And my return was really helping today too. I think I hit it very well." WTA story
Sabine said: "I hadn't been in a final in a while, so even though it's a tough one to lose, I still feel very good about my week. I played some good tennis here. I was working so hard in the off-season and it's nice to see it's already paying off, especially since we're just at the start of the year right now... It was such a close match and I had chances to win, but I just didn't take them. I'll learn a lot though."
Maria now leads Sabine 3-0 in career matches. They had not met since 2008, when, on a Deco-Turf hardcourt in the quarterfinals at Cincinnati, Maria defeated Sabine 6-2, 1-6, 6-1.
Maria is now 6-6 in WTA singles finals, and has a 9-2 singles match record this season.
Sabine is now 3-3 in WTA singles finals, and has a 5-3 singles match record this year.
