Dementieva wins Istanbul!!! |
Just when I wasn't expecting a lot from Elena, she wins it all. And she does it in a very fashionable way beating quality players. Just moments ago, Elena Dementieva won the Istanbul Cup when Aravane Rezai retired with a knee injury while Dementieva was leading 7-6(5) 3-0. This win is her 7th career WTA title and her first in red clay. It's pretty hard to imagine that this is her first win on red clay even if she reached the finals of Roland Garros three years ago.
This win will definitely give Elena a much needed confidence boost heading on to Roland Garros. It's great!!! She can be a force at Roland Garros this coming two weeks. I hope her the best.
Roland Garros preview will be up later in the day. Sorry if I wasn't able to update the site this week, I was very busy with work. But I guess, I didn't jinx Elena no? ;)
Congrats Elena! Let's continue this good form to Roland Garros! Good Luck!!! |
