In a long poem, endless, lasting three hours and thirteen minutes, the Romanian Irina Camelia Begusixth favorite, leaving the Spaniard without a prize Sarah Sorribesfourth, and dispute with Palermo tournament final against the italian Lucia Bronzetti who had previously fired his compatriot Jasmine Paolini.
Beg31 years old and 45 in the WTA ranking, put up an intense and exhausting fight to defeat the Spanish player (3-6, 6-3 and 6-4), who narrowly missed the second final of his career to add a new title to the one he won last year in Guadalajara (Mexico), his only prize so far.
The Romanian tennis player defeated Sorribes again, who he already won in 2020 at the Prague tournament, also on clay, in the only previous meeting between the two.
The Bucharest player is stronger than the Spanish one. She is braver than Sara Sorribes. Especially in the last set. The Romanian decided to claim victory as the player from Castellón held the court. He returned every ball but did not hurt his rival. Sara, too conservative, lacks the strength to survive a battle of attrition.
Sorribes, however, leaves Palermo with a big improvement in the ranking. He arrived in 41st place and will leave in 36th.
This is the ninth final for Irina Camelia Begu, the first since she lost in Cleveland in 2021. She aims to add to her fifth title. Her last achievement was in 2017. She will play the final match of the tournament against the Italian Bronzetti who won in three sets (0-6, 6-3 and 6-3) against her compatriot Lucia Paolini.
