Magdalena Rybarikova: Champion - Memphis Open 2011



Daniela Hantuchova is not the only successful Slovakian this week, her compatriot, Magdalena Rybarikova (#105), also wins the Memphis Open 2011 title.  This should propel her to the Top 100 next week.  She actually almost loses in the first round to Vania King in a very tight three set, and had two other three set matches before reaching the finals.  However, in the finals, she won handily, as her opponent, Rebecca Marino, retired.  Below was her path to the championship -

F - Rebecca Marino (CAN) (#80) 62 Retd
SF - Lucie Hradecka (CZE) (#102) 62 46 64
QF - Alexa Glatch (USA) (#288) 63 62
2R - Anne Keothavong (GBR) (#90) 64 36 61
1R - Vania King (USA) (#86) 61 36 76(9)
