Begu Beats Sasnovich to Win Korea Open
SEOUL — Romania's Irina-Camelia Begu ended the fairytale run from Belarusian qualifier Aliaksandra Sasnovich to win the Korea Open on Sunday.
Begu stamped her authority on the final when she reeled off eight games in a row to clinch the first set and lead 5-0 in the second before sealing a 6-3 6-1 victory.
"I think the key today was to stay calm and make my opponent run more, and I think I was successful in those. I was also hitting the balls deep and close to the lines," Begu said.
"I also think I was better on the important points -- I wasn't dominating every game, but I did better on the big points."
