This is how Patricia manages to win the first trophy of her career, in the third participation in a WTA final! If in Baku (2015) and in Bucharest (2019) she had bad luck, in Istanbul the Romanian had an excellent performance, passing in the final by Eugenie Bouchard, former world number 5!
Bouchard started the game much better, taking advantage of Patricia’s somewhat shy start. The Canadian won first set in just 36 minutes, scores 6-2, and he seemed headed for his first title after Nuremberg 2014.
In the second act, Patricia freaked out with pride. The key moment of the game was the break that brought the score to 4-1. Since then, the Romanian did not look back until 4-1 in the deciding set, when she had a chance to break, but missed two decisive balls, allowing Bouchard to get closer to just one game.
Patricia, 7 match balls lost
However, the Romanian overcame the psychological leap, succeeding immediately after a break, which brought the score to 5-3! He then served with excitement to win the tournament, and Eugenie managed to save three match balls and then break. The Canadian also won her next game, serving flawlessly, but for Patricia an incredible series followed, winning 7 balls in a row and get another 3 match balls. That was lost!
Bouchard won the game and took the deciding set in the tie-break, where Patricia missed another match ball, at 6-3, and the second will finally be lucky!
Victoria climbs Țig to 58th place in the WTA ranking, the best ranking of her career! Patricia thus becomes the second highest ranked player from Romania, after Simona Halep (# 2).
