She's said it herself, She's Box Office.
I taped it but didn't get round to see it after watching the boxing and Ostapenko, but I went in Twitter an hour or so ago and it was there. Pleased with both winners, may skim through it later today but good that she finally has that first tour title this year.Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet Caroliiiiine.

The top 6 look certs, Mugu is officially in and I thought Halep was too, but judging by that it's not official yet, but 99.9%. Ostapenko has taken over Konta now even if she loses tomorrow which could be significant. Mladenovic has lost about 9 of her last 10 games so she is pretty much out of contention and Kuznetsova and Vandeweghe will have to do very well in one of Wuhan or Beijing or maybe even both to have much chance.
The main threat stopping the current top 8 is the wildcard spot. The top 7 are automatic qualifiers but the WTA do have the option to use a wildcard for the 8th if they see fit. Stephen may get this after winning a slam and missing most of the year through injury. If Konta finished 7th and Osta 8th then this won't happen as Osta also has a slam, but if it ends how it currently is then Stephens could pip Konta with a potential wildcard.
Six lost finals before this win, not a single set won in any of the six previous. First set today was almost leathal tennis, more even in the second set. And you could see how much it meant to her when she finally won a final and raised both arms in the air, she doesn't normally do that. Smiles all over.
I know she has been on the tour for a while now but today was her 49th WTA final. If only she could add another grand slam final to that list and a sneaky win, too.
Bring on the Aussie Open.
Am well excited.
Danish media are saying our Caroline is certain to be in the season finals now that Mladenovic has already lost in Wuhan. But the way I see it she could still finish eight and lose out to a wild card ?
Definitely a lock now after all the 'contenders' have exited early here. Some journalists reckon the wildcard won't be revoked anyway which means Konta may well limp over the line. 5 defeats in 7 now since Wimbledon, not good. Wozniacki on soon against Sakkari. Ostapenko through.
Konta's had a shocking end to the year!

Watching it at the allotment. She just lost the first set. Apparently Sakkari has never won a match against a top ten ranked player so there is hope yet.
I should really be cutting the grass.
Konta's technique is almost Bouchard levels of bad, no real surprise she struggles with people like Niculescu and Hsieh. Krunic and Strycova aren't exactly big hitters either.
Looking at this, one of three players can overtake her number eight spot in the Race to Singapore if they win the final in Beijing.

Evans banned for a year, backdated so he can play from end of April next year. Wonder if he gets a Wimbledon wildcard?
That's an absolutely awful excuse
