Hsieh Edges Robson, Conquers Guangzhou
September 22, 2012


GUANGZHOU, China - In one of the most dramatic finals of the year, Hsieh
Su-Wei had the match, let it go, let it go a little bit more and then came
roaring back to win the GRC Bank Guangzhou International Women's Open.

Neither of the two finalists at the International-level event were seeded,
but they had both definitely proven themselves against those who were: Hsieh
beat No.4 seed Urszula Radwanska en route to the final, while Laura Robson
took out three - No.2 seed Zheng Jie, No.7 seed Peng Shuai and No.3 seed
Sorana Cirstea. And both brought their very best to Saturday's title match.

Hsieh controlled the overall flow of the first half of the match, using her
very unorthodox style - two hands off both sides, mixing spins and slices,
offense and defense - to outfox Robson and build a 63 53 lead. And she even
had five match points in that game, but Robson stayed calm and fought them
all off.

Robson would end up reeling off seven games in a row to go from 63 53 down to
3-0 up in the third set; but Hsieh regrouped, winning five games in a row
(and six of the next seven) en route to a dramatic 63 57 64 championship
victory.

Hsieh came away with the second WTA title of her career, her first coming at
Kuala Lumpur earlier this year - and that was another dramatic final, as she
had to fight back from 62 42 down against Petra Martic and won when the Croat
unfortunately retired down 4-1 in the third set due to heat exhaustion.

Hsieh is one of only two players from Chinese Taipei ever to win a WTA title,
after Wang Shi-Ting, who won six WTA titles during the mid-1990s. She is now
projected to make her career Top 50 debut, around the No.39-No.40 range (she
was all the way down at No.215 in the world at this time last year).

Robson proved once again it's tough to close her out by saving those five
match points - three of them with winners - and pushing the match close to
the three hour mark before finally succumbing. Her last loss on the WTA ended
in a similar way - in her fourth round match at the US Open, she fended off
eight match points before Sam Stosur eventually converted on the ninth.

Robson was also the first Brit to reach a WTA final in 22 years, since Jo
Durie did so at Newport in 1990 (losing to Arantxa Sánchez-Vicario). No Brit
has won a WTA title in 24 years, since Sara Gomer triumphed at Aptos in 1988.
