One of the around 8 favorite players I have in the tennis world, Flavia Pennetta from Italy, won the first big tournament in her career by beating Australians Sam Stosur in 2 sets 6-4 6-3. Stosur had impressed the field so far with her mighty serve and powerful groundstrokes but did not show her best in the final. Flavia played great though and was the better in almost all the longer rallies. She already stunned the tennis world by beating an almost back in form Maria Sharapova in the quarter finals en route to this finale. After two huge tournaments with in the first one in Stanford both Williams sisters, Jankovic and Dementieva playing and here in L.A with Sharapova and Ivanovic,
- Flavia Pennetta
it's fairly surprising that the winners Bartoli and Pennetta are non top 10 players.
