Anett Kontaveit has really gotten going in the last few weeks - and the local hero was the one who suffered in Cluj-Napoca. Because Kontaveit overran the Romanian 6: 2 and 6: 3, winning the event without losing a set. In the Porsche Race, Kontaveit overtook Ons Jabeur and will serve for the first time at the WTA Finals, which will take place in Guadalajara this year.
Kontaveit has won 26 of their last 28 matches and will be listed in the top ten of the WTA charts for the first time on Monday. In Guadalajara, the Estonian will meet Aryna Sabalenka, Karolina Pliskova, Barbora Krejcikova, Maria Sakkari, Garbine Muguruza and Paula Badosa. The world number one Ashleigh Barty ended her season prematurely.
