Spain Triumphs in Final Week of Clay

Today, two Spanish veterans triumphed in the final two clay tournaments of the year. Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez won Bad Gastein and Anabel Medina Garrigues won Palermo. I really don't care about either of them, so lets talk about what else happened in this past week.


In Bad Gastein, the top seven seeds were eliminated in the first round.
Sybille Bammer retired after losing in the second round of Bad Gastein.
Tsvetana Pironkova showed that she could actually play outside of Wimbledon when she reached the quarterfinals of Palermo.
Polona Hercog reached her second consecutive final at a WTA tournament after winning Bastad.
Elena Dementieva got married!!!
