Their previous meeting was late last month on a Deco-Turf hardcourt in the 2nd round at Wuhan, when Angelique defeated Jelena 6-4, 2-6, 6-2.

Agnieszka's prize is $111,389; Danke's prize is $55,435. The win clinched Agnieszka a place in this year's WTA Finals at Singapore.

Coming to Asia I didn't really think I had any chance to go to Singapore, and it's actually been a very good couple of weeks for me." WTA story
