Agnieszka Radwanska won her third WTA title of the year defeating Russia’s Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in a gruelling match lasting 2 hours 45 minutes at the Korean Open in Seoul.
The top seeded Pole prevailed 6-7, 6-3, 6-4. “After a great match, almost three hours of great tennis at a really high level, of course I’m very happy,” she said after clinching the title.
After dropping a first-set tiebreak to Pavlyuchenkova she took back control of the match with an early second set break. Radwanska went on to seal the second set before breaking in the tenth game of a final set decider to take the match.
