It was a really good battle out there. There were some very tough moments, especially in the second set. But I just tried to take it one point at a time, and I'm really happy to make it through. It's just an amazing feeling to win this title." WTA story Ana now leads Caroline 5-2 in career matches. Their previous meeting was earlier this year on a Deco-Turf hardcourt in the semifinals at Monterrey, when Ana defeated Caro 7-6(5), 6-4. Ana is now 15-7 in WTA singles finals. She has a 52-14 singles match record in 2014. Caroline is now 22-15 in WTA singles finals. She has a 43-16 singles match record this season. |
On Sunday at Seoul,, in the final of the Kia Korean Open, the 2013 Kuala Lumpur champion (and last week's finalist in Hong Kong), 22 year old 2nd seeded #36 (career high: #36) Karolina Pliskova from Louny, Czech Republic, defeated 28 year old 5th seeded #43 (career high: #19) Varvara Lepchenko from Allentown, Pennsylvania (birthplace: Tashkent, Uzbekistan), 6-3, 6(5)-7, 6-2 (Karolina is shown holding the vaseware after the match).
Karolina's prize is $111,389 and a Kia automobile; Varvara's prize is $55,435.
Karolina said: "In the second set I lost my serve a few times and had a few chances to break back, and I made it back to 5-all, but I didn't do well in the tie-break. She was playing so well, but after the second set I really cleared my head a little bit and started to play much more aggressively. In the third set she started to miss a few more shots and I think that's why I won today." WTA story
Karolina and Varvara had met only once before, in 2009 on a hardcourt in an ITF tourney at Fort Walton Beach, when Karolina defeated Varvara 4-6, 6-2, 6-4.

Monica's prize is $111,163; Alize's prize is $55,323.
Monica said: "I think it's very tough to play against me, because I put many balls back and run a lot and fight for every ball. I think in this heat and humidity it's definitely not easy to play against me." WTA story
Monica now leads Alize 2-1 in career matches. Their previous meeting was in 2012 on a Plexicushion hardcourt in the 1st round of the Australian Open, when Monica defeated Alize 5-7, 6-0, 6-3.
