Daria Kasatkina fought past her good friend Mirra Andreeva to win the Ningbo Open title in China.
Russian fifth seed Kasatkina beat her teenage compatriot 6-0 4-6 6-4 in a scrappy encounter.
Andreeva broke down in tears after the match, having squandered a 3-0 lead in the final set.
However, she was quickly comforted by Kasatkina, before joking: "I really tried not to cry because I knew the pictures would be ugly but I just couldn't help myself, I'm sorry guys."
World number 11 Kasatkina looked to be cruising after making just two unforced errors in a dominant opening set.
