Anna-Lena Friedsam has suffered a double ligament tear - 4-6 Weeks pause! In her match against Klara Koukalova she was leading 61 40 when she stumbled very unlucky and had to retire. It was a bit painful to watch.

Hate to hear something like that. I hope she recovers quickly.

Oh no. I remember when she gave Serena a time at RG this year. Sorry to hear that. Hoping for a speedy recovery.

 

[colleen66]

So sorry to hear about Friedsam. I believe that she has much potential and could be a force to be reckoned with in a couple of years. She has flashes of brilliance during her match against Serena. Poor girl, I hope she makes a full recovery.

Stosur wins her eighth WTA title and the second of 2015 by coming from behind to beat Knapp in the Bad Gastein final. Stosur will move up to around No. 20 in next week's rankings.

I've always thought a former U.S. Open champ should be winning more titles in her career so it's good to see Stosur winning those matches she is capable of winning and getting closer to the double-digit mark in tiles! :clap
