Moscow

 

Singles – Final: (1) R Gasquet def. (Q) M Kukushkin 4-6 6-4 6-4

Richard Gasquet, we have good news and bad news for you.

The good news is, of course, that he won the title here. It’s the tenth title of his career, and his third of 2013. That matches the best previous year of his career, in 2006. More, it gives him a big boost in the Race. He moves past countryman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga into the #9 spot in the Race (which would qualify him for London), and is close behind #7 Stanislas Wawrinka and #8 Roger Federer.

The bad news is, this took two hours and 24 minutes. And although his situation has improved, he will surely still need more than this to earn the last London spot. If this hurts his results at Basel and Paris, it may cost him more than it is worth.

In the immediate term, it doesn’t help Gasquet; he remains #10 in the rankings. But he is right on the tail of #9 Tsonga and even #8 Wawrinka; he has a real chance to reach #8 next week, and of becoming the #1 Frenchman.

Mikhail Kukushkin failed to win his second career title, but he reached his first final in three years. It’s a big boost for him; he should rise from #102 to around #70. Which means a lot fewer qualifying matches in the next year!

Stockholm

 

Singles – Final: (7) G Dimitrov def. (1) D Ferrer 2-6 6-3 6-4

There really does seem to be something wrong with David Ferrer this fall. He just can’t win things! In this case, he led in the first set. He had multiple break chances early in the third set, didn’t convert, and collapsed from there. He’s still looking for his first title since Buenos Aires in February.

In the short term, it doesn’t matter. He stays #3, and he has clinched for London. But he has a huge pile of points to defend in the next few weeks. And he failed to add any here — this doesn’t even count toward his ranking. A couple of weeks ago, we felt it probable that he would end the year at #3. But now #4 is looking more likely, and with Ferrer going nowhere and Juan Martin del Potro doing so well, it might even be #5.

But that’s the future. For now, the news is Grigor Dimitrov. He wins his first career title — and, as a result, ought to rise to a career high #22. He had been in a funk for a few months, having lost his last four matches coming here. It sure looks as if he’s out of it!

Doubles – Final: (1) Qureshi/Rojer def. (WC) Bjorkman/Lindstedt 6-2 6-2

Up to this point, Bjorkman/Lindstedt could earn a certain amount of success just based on shock value. But, when they faced Qureshi/Rojer, they were up against a team that is trying to qualify for London. That presumably helped to block out the distractions.

It is only the second title this year for Qureshi/Rojer — the other was Miami. But, in a way, that’s good news. They had room for a title. They came in #7 in the Race. It appears they will rise to #6. That’s far from clinching for London. But they’re doing what they can.

Vienna

 

Singles – Final: (2) T Haas def. R Haase 6-3 4-6 6-4

We have a strange pattern this week of guys winning titles without it doing them any good. Two of this week’s champions will not move in the rankings! Tommy Haas came here at #12, and he stays at #12.

Still, Haas wins his second title of the year (following Munich); it’s the first time since 2006 that he has won multiple titles in a year. It is also the first time since 2007 that he has won a title outside Germany; his last four titles were Munich 2013, Halle 2012, Halle 2009, and, more than six years ago, Memphis 2007. (To be sure, Austria is a German-speaking country, but it isn’t actually Germany.) That could be important as he tries to stay alive in the contest for London. He came in at #12 in the Race, just as in the rankings, and he stays #12, and because Richard Gasquet also added points, Haas didn’t gain much ground. But he didn’t lose any ground, either.

Robin Haase, despite losing, gains ground. After seeing his ranking erode slowly over the last couple of years, this should take him from #63 to just below #45.

Doubles – Final: Mergea/Rosol def. (3) Knowle/Nestor 7-5 6-4

It was a good day to be a veteran in singles, but a lousy day in doubles. First Bjorkman/Lindstedt lost, then Knowle/Nestor. And that after the old guys blew a lead.

It’s big for Florin Mergea, though. You may recall that he came up with Horia Tecau, with whom he played a lot in his early years. Tecau, even though he has struggled this year, has gone on to become a significant doubles player. Mergea has gone nowhere. At age 28, he came here with no doubles titles and a career record of only 14-27. Even this year, the best of his career, he was only 8-13. He still has a losing record — but he has a title. He’ll take it.

For Lukas Rosol, it’s career doubles title #2, his first having been Doha 2012 with Polasek. He doesn’t make his living in doubles the way the rest of these guys do, but still, it’s a nice thing for the trophy cabinet….

* Vogt wins first WTA doubles (or singles) title

****** TODAY’S WOMEN’S NEWS ******

 

Moscow

 

Singles – Final: (5) Simona Halep def. (7) Samantha Stosur 7-6(7-1) 6-2

It has been less than half a year since Simona Halep won her first title, and with this, she already has five trophies. And the last two of them Premier titles. Will she ever have a year like this again?

The amazing thing is that, with all those titles, she still finds herself only #14. Still, that is a career high. And she’ll be seeded at effectively every event she plays from now on. She will almost certainly go higher — she is on a Top Ten pace.

She might even go higher yet this year. Although she is only #14, she is a mere hundred points behind #11 Sloane Stephens. And Stephens is done for the year (unless she plays Istanbul as the #2 alternate). #12 Marion Bartoli is also done for 2013. Whereas Halep will be playing Sofia. It doesn’t appear she can make the Top Ten this year. But she could yet climb.

As could Stosur, who by winning Osaka last week also qualified for Sofia. This loss ends Stosur’s winning streak at nine, but she managed to reach the Moscow final for the second straight year, meaning that she will keep her #19 ranking. With the possibility of gaining one or two more spots in Sofia.

Doubles – Final: Kuznetsova/Stosur def. (2) Kudryavtseva/Rodionova 6-1 1-6 10-8

Officially an upset, but is anyone really surprised? After all, Kuznetsova and Stosur are the ones with Slams in their history. They just haven’t played that much doubles lately. For Svetlana Kuznetsova, in fact, this is her first doubles title since she won the 2012 Australian Open with Zvonareva. Stosur had been waiting even longer; it’s her first title since Stuttgart 2011 with Lisicki. It will be interesting to see how much they decide to play next year.

Luxembourg

 

Singles – Final: (1) Caroline Wozniacki def. Annika Beck 6-2 6-2

It was, frankly, a pretty lousy final. Annika Beck is probably better than she showed here, but it was her first final, and her play seemed pretty nervous (she said afterward, “Caroline and I practiced once here and I was very nervous, and I was nervous today too!”). Caroline Wozniacki won more than 60% of the points.

And, notably, her first title since she won Moscow 2012. That means no rankings help — she loses points, since Luxembourg is smaller than Moscow, and we show her falling from #9 to #10 (although this is a tricky week because Istanbul and Sofia are coming off as well as Moscow and Luxembourg, meaning that some players lose two events). Wozniacki finds herself as the #1 Istanbul alternate. But… since she won an International title, this means that she qualifies for Sofia. As an Istanbul alternate, she has some options about Sofia, but if she plays, the Sofia field is Wozniacki, Vinci, Halep, Kirilenko, Stosur, and Vesnina (plus Pironkova and whoever gets the other wildcard). If someone pulls out, Pavlyuchenkova is next in, then Cornet. So Wozniacki, since she still gets to play this year, has an outside shot at ending the year above #10. Her Top Ten spot looks just about secure; the next players down the rankings to still be active, Vinci and Halep, are hundreds of points behind her.

Annika Beck failed to win her first WTA title, but after stalling out for much of this year, she finally showed some flashes of the talent that had sent her rocketing up the rankings last year. We show her up to #48. If she doesn’t regress again, we’d expect her to go higher.

Doubles – Final: Vogt/Wickmayer def. Barrois/Thorpe 7-6(7-2) 6-4

A big day for everybody. Not one of the four finalists had ever won a doubles title, and only Yanina Wickmayer had won a WTA title of any type.

It’s a nice thing for Stephanie Vogt. Four or five years ago, she looked like a promising youngster, but then physical problems tripped her up. She’s now 23, and we thought she was washed up. But maybe there is hope after all.

Yanina Wickmayer has looked a little washed up herself. And doubles isn’t really her thing. But maybe finally winning another title will help her get back on track.

****** TODAY’S FEATURE ******

 

Women’s Look Forward: Istanbul

 

If you don’t look closely, you could be forgiven for thinking that this year’s WTA Championships is the same as 2012’s. We have seven of the same eight players: Serena Williams, Victoria Azarenka, Agnieszka Radwanska, Li Na, Sara Errani, Petra Kvitova, and Angelique Kerber. Only Maria Sharapova failed to return (and she qualified; she just isn’t able to play). The only player in the field who wasn’t here last year is Jelena Jankovic — and she has played in the past. We have no first-timers at all. It makes it a little hard to find something to talk about.

There is one interesting question, though: What will Caroline Wozniacki do? She is the #1 alternate here (meaning she has a fair chance to play later in the week). But she has also qualified for Sofia. The alternate has the option to play the “other” championships. Will she? (It doesn’t come up for #2 alternate Sloane Stephens; she isn’t qualified for Sofia.)

We do note that Errani is the only player to qualify in both singles and doubles. But indoor surfaces are not friendly for her; she may well be out of singles contention by the time she plays her first doubles match.

As far as the groups go, Serena heads the Red Group, along with Radwanska, Kvitova, and Kerber. The White Group consists of Azarenka, Li, Errani, and Jankovic. Given Errani’s history, and the fact that Jankovic hasn’t won a match here since Doha 2009 (her overall Championships record is 4-10), Azarenka and Li really look like favorites to take the White Group. Errani last year went 1-2, Azarenka has a career record of 7-8 (but has made the final and the semifinal in the last two years), and Li is 2-4.

The Red Group is a lot ore interesting, with a lot of people picking Serena and Kvitova, rather than Serena and Radwanska, as the favorites. Of course, a lot depends on Kvitova’s immune system…. But she does have a 5-1 record in Istanbul, with a title in 2011. Radwanska is 5-4, but three of those wins were as an alternate; her record when she qualified directly is only 3-4. Kerber last year went 0-3. So Kvitova certainly has the best record. Other than Serena, anyway, who has a Championships record of 20-5 — in other words, almost as many wins (20) at the year-end event as the other seven players in the field combined (24)!

The Rankings

It will be a surprisingly quiet week, rankings-wise. That’s in large part because the points from last year are already off. A huge pile of points will come on, but no one loses anything (except her sixteenth event score). So we know that Serena Williams will end the year at #1, with Victoria Azarenka #2. #3 is somewhat up in the air. Maria Sharapova won’t get it, since she’s done for the year. So Agnieszka Radwanska is the obvious candidate. But Li Na still has a shot, although she will need at least a final and probably a title. Sharapova will likely be #4, but might end up at #5 if Li does well enough.

Serena, Azarenka, Sharapova, and Radwanska are sure to be in the Top Five. Li is likely, but Petra Kvitova or Sara Errani could still move up. Odds are, though, that Kvitova, Errani, Jelena Jankovic, and Angelique Kerber are contesting the #6-#9 spots. Kvitova and Errani come in close to tied, by the standards of this event; Jankovic is a little further back, not much ahead of Kerber. As between Kvitova and Errani, it’s probably a case of whichever does better ends up #6, with ties to Kvitova. Ditto for Jankovic and Kerber. If either of the latter pair can reach the final, she could pass Kvitova and Errani also.
