Krunic wins her maiden title in s-Hertogenbosch

At 25 years of age, Aleksandra Krunic wins her maiden title in ‘s-Hertogenbosch.

The Serbian achieved this feat after getting back from a very tricky situation against the world no.60 Kirsten Flipkens that was leading the match 7-6 (0) 3-1. Eventually, Krunic managed to recover the deficit after the Belgian failed to serve-out the match while she was later leading 7-6 5-4 30-15. After dropping that service game, Kirsten disappeared to lose 9 of the following 10 games.

Krunic won the encounter 6-7 (0) 7-5 6-1.

I don’t know how I made it. KRUNIC

After the match, Aleksandra commented

“I don’t know how you pulled this off, mate, but the fact that you didn’t show how much pain you were in today, makes me respect you more. I think we’re both champions, and I’m happy that I was able to stay I was very nervous, and it was tough for me to play, but I’m happy that I hung in there.”
