On Sunday at Stanford, in the final of the Bank of the West Classic,
the 2012 champion at San Diego, 24 year old 3rd seeded #21 (career high: #12) Dominika Cibulkova from Bratislava, Slovakia,
defeated
the 2013 champion at Sydney and Auckland, 24 year old top seeded #4 (career high: #2) Agnieszka Radwanska from Krakow, Poland,
3-6, 6-4, 6-4 (Domi is shown with the bearware after the match). Dominika's prize is $125,000; Agnieszka's prize is $68,200. Domi, who trailed by a break of serve through much of the 3rd set, won on her 5th match point. Dominika said: "It's a big deal for me today. I had never beaten Aga before. She's a really tough competitor and I had to earn every point myself. It was tough mentally and physically out there, so I'm really happy I won." WTA story Aga had double-bageled Domi in their previous encounter. Agnieszka said: "I didn't play my best tennis at all today. I think everything was a problem for me. I couldn't feel the ball well. Actually I couldn't feel the ball the whole tournament. And [Dominika] was much better on the court, hitting so hard and so cleanly. She was really playing so well out there." Agnieszka still leads Dominika 4-1 in career matches. Their previous meeting was in January of this year on a Plexicushion hardcourt in the final at Sydney, when Aga defeated Domi 6-0, 6-0. |
Dominika is now 3-5 in WTA singles finals, and has a 22-16 singles match record in 2013. Agnieszka is now 12-5 in WTA singles finals, and has a 37-11 singles match record this year.
In Azerbaijan on Sunday, in the final of the Baku Cup, 18 year old 7th seeded #84 (career high #163) Elina Svitolina from Kharkiv, Ukraine, defeated the 2009 champ at Guangzhou & Tashkent, 26 year old #143 (career high #11) Shahar Peer from Maccabim, Israel, 6-4, 6-4 (Elina is shown with the glassware after the match).
Elina's prize is $40,000; Shahar's prize is $20,000. Shahar and Elina had met only once before, early this year on a hardcourt in the 1st round at Shenzhen, when Elina defeated Shahar 6-1, 6-3.
At the trophy ceremony, Elina said: "Thank you Shahar for a great final. It was a very tough match today and I had a lot of tough matches throughout the week, but I worked really hard coming into the tournament, and it turned out well for me." WTA story
Shahar said: "I'm really happy I achieved the final. I've had a lot of tough moments the last few years and I did play well this week. I have to only take the positives from this tournament."
Elina was playing in her first WTA singles final. She has won 5 ITF singles titles, 1 WTA doubles title, and 2 ITF doubles titles. Elina has a 24-17 singles match record this season.
Shahar is now 5-4 in WTA singles finals, but she has not won a title since 2009 and this was the first final she has reached since 2011. Shahar has a 23-31 singles match record for the year.
