Groth wins first WTA title Guangzhou, 19 September 2010 AFP Australia's Jarmila Groth on Sunday claimed her first WTA title with an easy 6-1 6-4 victory over Russia's Alla Kudryavtseva at the Guangzhou Open in southern China. The 23-year-old Groth powered 11 aces past Kudryavtseva to claim the USD$37,000 (AUD$40,000) winner's cheque. She also got revenge for the loss to the Russian in their previous meeting at Indian Wells in 2008. The Australian - who was the tournament's top seed - easily lived up to her billing, breezing through the draw without dropping a set and surrendering just five games or less per match. She broke Kudryavtseva's serve five times en route to the title. The 22-year-old Russian was making her first career appearance in a WTA final. 澳洲选手Jarmila Groth，在周日以轻松的直落二，夺得她生涯第一个WTA赛事冠军， 23岁的她，全场发出11颗ACE球，拿走了37000美元支票。她同时也为自己争了口气， 因为她曾在2008年的印地安泉赛事，输给这位俄罗斯对手-Alla Kudryavtseva。 Groth一共破了她的发球局五次，粉碎了这位22岁俄国选手夺冠的美梦。 Groth, a native of Slovakia who took Australian citizenship last year after marrying ATP player Sam Groth, is currently the world number 55 and is projected to crack the WTA's top 50 when the new rankings are published Monday. "It's very exciting to finally get inside the Top 50," Groth said before playing her maiden tour final. "I've had injuries and every time I got close in the past, I couldn't play." She's having her best season since joining the tour in 2005, with round of 16 appearances at both the French Open and Wimbledon. At the US Open, she fell in the first round to three-time Grand Slam winner Maria Sharapova, letting a golden opportunity slip away after claiming the first set from the Russian, who won at Flushing Meadows in 2006. Groth是一位斯洛伐克人，在去年因嫁给了澳洲选手Sam Groth，而取得澳洲公民身分， 目前她的排名在WTA第55位，预计在下周一会进到前50位。 她在决赛前表示，"我很开心能进到世界前50名，以前当我越接近这个目标时，伤痛 就会来困扰我，让我不得不停止打球。" 自从她在2005年开始打巡回赛後，已在法网和温网晋级过16强，但在今年美网， 她於首轮遭遇了坐拥三个大满贯冠军的选手莎拉波娃，这场比赛她先拿下第一盘， 但最终仍输给这位曾於2006美网夺冠的俄国人，无缘角逐冠军头衔。 来源:http://tinyurl.com/2623med 最後一段新闻其实有点多余.... 恭喜Groth突破生涯的低潮!! 开心地享受胜利的果实吧!! P.S. 这个赛事她从头到尾未失一盘 真的很厉害~ 补上对战纪录： Tour, CHINA, September 13 2010, $220,000, HARD (O) 排名: 55 　种子序: 1 WTA 积分: 280 冠军奖金: $37,000 Rnd 　　　　Opponent 　　　　 Rank W/L Score R32 Bratchikova, Nina (RUS) 　 142 W 6-2 6-0 R16 Tanasugarn, Tamarine (THA) 111 W 6-1 6-4 Q Camerin, Maria Elena (ITA) 106 W 6-0 6-2 S Gallovits, Edina (ROU) 100 W 6-0 6-1 F Kudryavtseva, Alla (RUS) 103 W 6-1 6-4 --
