Real world championship tournament in Singapore because it was considered an unofficial world championship in tennis. An unofficial world championship mixed pairs also considered captured in January by Radwanska and Jerzy Janowicz Hopman Cup, but the event in Perth is purely for show. The WTA Championship game for the most serious. The ranking points and a huge amount of money, and at the start is typically eight best tennis players in the past year (this time lacked an American Serena Williams).
– Three weeks ago I did not know even if I had a chance at all to play here – he said after the last ball Radwanska, not even trying to hide the tears. – This is the most important day of my life – Polka added that thanks to the victory of 6: 2. 4: 6, 6: 3 improved achievement Wojciech Fibak, who in 1976 also reached the final of the Masters (so for many years was named the tournament both with the release of the men and women’s). But he lost to the Spaniard Manuel Orantes.
Just had to finish Radwanska. At least according to the bookmakers, who have more chances to win in the final gave Kvitova. He pointed to a balance of past meetings of both tennis players, though just at the WTA Championships, both winning for a change. Czech in 2011 and 2013, Polk in 2012 and 2014.
The experts apparently did not take into account that Radwanska climbed in the previous matches and the peak of their abilities. Competition in Singapore started from the failures of Russian Maria Sharapova and an Italian Flavia Pennetta, after which hardly anyone gave her a chance to leave the group. In the last match, however, he defeated Pole wiceliderkę WTA rankings, Rumanian woman Simona Halep. In the semifinals while tackled a Garbine Muguruza (rocket number three), rewanżując on the occasion Hiszpance for this year’s defeat in the semi-finals of Wimbledon.
could only worrying state of health of the Kraków, which at the end of Saturday’s match complaining of a sore thigh, and on Sunday went to court with an impressive bandage on his right leg. – Agnieszka must survive the first three gems, because it will be very hurt, then the adrenaline takes over – warned Peter Radwanski, the father and former longtime coach of our tennis players, but on the court it was seen that something was wrong with his daughter. It is rather Kvitova – who also joined the game bandaged – looked as if she had mobility problems. Especially early in the second set. – Sometimes the game is for me a never-ending story – said – when asked about the way to Radwańska, Czech – which in turn crack down in the semi-final against Sharapova. She added that her recipe for success will be a mix of patient and aggressive play and actually – the first set was a mix of her performance. It’s just that errors and helplessness.
Polka began again bravely and already fought from rival broke. Focused, aggressive – once again scored points more and more helpless and with a thick from Czech Rep. – Stop already combined, play your – appealed in the state 5: 1 coach, David Kotyza Kvitova, but his protegee has won in the party’s only one gem.
Moreover, the second set again started from breaking and running Radwanska. 20. After 3: 1. Kvitova finally getting started, however. Price recovered, and leading 5: 4 for the second time broke the Pole. Czech played more confident and now she enjoyed most of the court.
Fortunately Radwanska fought to the end. It does not faze her conduct Kvitova 2: 0 in the decisive set, nor any subsequent break after this, as she took the lead 3: 2. The last three gems looked like the end of a long fight in professional boxing, because both were already extremely exhausted. Polka better to tough this test of strength and character. Czech tried to shorten the exchange and look for terminating strokes. Increasingly, however, was wrong – just look at the statistics, moreover, unforced errors. Kvitova made them the whole match 53. Polka only five.
Winning the WTA Championship Radwanska earned a total of 2,094 million dollars (1,750 million for winning the final). Advanced thanks to tenth place in the standings best-paid tennis players in history, joining the ranks of those who earned on the court more than $ 20 million. Monday Polka will also be number five in the world.
And all this after a season of ups and downs. Season in which twice fall out of the top ten rankings, the WTA and many spisało it at a loss …
Expert opinion: Paul Ostrowski, a former coach Angelique Kerber.
“The main conclusion of this victory is that Radwanska took the last step, which separates the contestant very good from outstanding. In the end, she did not wait in the decisive moments of a miracle, but she took matters into their own hands and created the game. This could be a turning point in the career of Agnes, he finally began to believe that such playing makes sense and see what it brings results. So playing Radwanska can safely attempt here is to win the tournament Grand Slam and I am convinced that it – sooner or later – will. She now knows he can win with the best not only when they have a bad day. Congratulations are also due the Staff of the coaching. Especially Tom Wiktorowskiemu. With calm and patience – many a coach would lose his head after failed the first part of the season. ”
