Kasatkina Jabeur

Darya Kasatkina wins an incredible title in Moscow after winning the final against Ons Jabeur recovering a 2-6 1-4 deficit.

The match

The Russian and the Tunisian were playing an amazing match, but it was Jabeur to get an extremely strong 6-2 4-1 that looked almost unassailable.

Then Darya called her coach, Philippe Dehaes, that has recently become famous for a rather unique coaching that made Kasatkina win another tough match in the previous rounds of the same event. Philippe came out with another incredible pep talk to give the right boost again to Darya that eventually won the match 2-6 7-6 (3) 6-4 after an epic battle.

This is Kasatkina 2nd career title after Charleston (2017) and her second final of the year following Dubai and Indian Wells.

Singapore Alternate

After this week, Darya has earned the opportunity to be the first alternate of the WTA Finals that will be played in Singapore.

Well done!
