SAN ANTONIO, TX, USA
The No.6 seed misaki Doi claimed the second WTA-level title of her career with a win over anna lena Friedsan, 6-4, 6-2 in the final of the inaugural San Antonio Open.
"I'm so happy to win the first San Antonio Open," Doi said after the final. "Today it was very very difficult conditions - it was so windy. But I'm so happy."
The swirling wind gave both players plenty of trouble throughout the match, and neither was able to play herself into a rhythm. Despite the tough conditions, Doi found her footing first and grabbed the first break at 4-3 before going on to take the first set.
Doi and Friedsam traded holds in the second set, but the No.6 seed had the momentum at her back and she reeled off four straight games to go up 5-1. The lead would prove to be too much for Friedsam to overcome, and Doi captured the win in one hour and 14 minutes.
"I think I just tried to focus on every ball," Doi said of overcoming the high winds. "Since the conditions were so tough, I just focus on one point, one point, one point."
