The German would benefit the home advantage, the crowd will be rooting for Mona.
It will be a tough task.

Yaro is a good Tennis player, Genie will have her hands full too.

Most interesting match will be Angie vs. Karolina for me, I like them both.

Garcia v. Knapp is interesting to me, as both have been trending a bit. And I'd like to see Bouchard win.

^^I also want Genie to win, but whether or not she will is anybody guess. Her tennis has gotten somewhat lost as Genie has gotten lost in media land :cover

Genie and Karolina are engaged in a 3 set battle, we are almost at the 2 hour mark.

Genie is serving for the championship.

RE: WTA NÃœRNBERG CUP 2014

First WTA title for a Canadian since Alexsandra Wozniak won in Stanford in 2008. Tough battle in the third set, lots of breaks, but Eugenie held strong for the 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 win. She is off to Paris very shortly, she noted "what time is it? I am catching a flight very soon." Karolina has the doubles final to play as well. She gave Eugenie a good battle.
