WTA Eastbourne - Women's Semifinal
Q Jamie Hampton d 5 Caroline Wozniacki - 67(8) 75 63
Jamie beat Caro once in the juniors now she can boast an official WTA win.
The win will push Jamie to new heights - the top 30.
Her qualifying days will now be a thing of the past.
And hello American hopeful pressure.
Poat match: I didn't come just to play the qualifying. I try to enter every
tournament & think to get deep in the tournament, & look to win the title.
So coming off my Roland Garros run I had a good amount of confidence,
and I was hoping to get deep into this tournament this week too.
***
US hopeful vs US hopeful: Jamie just drew Sloane in Wimby 1st round.
So there's that bummer US hopeful news from London today.
ATP & WTA Winners at Eastbourne & 's-Hertogenbosch
's-Hertogenbosch ATP 250 - Men's Final

This is the feel good story of the weekend.
At 31 Nicolas is the oldest 1st time ATP winner since 2005.
Before this tourney he had a W/L of 1-2 for the 2013 season.
Post match: It's amazing. I cannot believe I won today.
Eastbourne ATP 250 at - Men's Final
Feliciano Lopez d 2 Gilles Simon - 76(2) 67(5) 60
Feli wins his 3rd title and 1st on grass - and 1st in 3 years.

and to have at least one title on grass is very nice feeling.

WTA Eastbourne - Women's Final
Elena Vesnina d Q Jamie Hampton - 62 61
Elena picks up her 2nd title (both 2013) - Jamie will wait for her 1st.
Post match: But I kept believing in myself. I knew I would win this title.
I knew it was going to happen. It's not self-confidence - I knew if I kept
working hard and believing in myself, it would come. And it did.
WTA 's-Hertogenbosch - Women's Final
Simona Halep d 4 Kirsten Flipkens - 64 62
2 weeks - 2 titles. Last week she won at Nurnberg.
So she's on a nice little 10 match winning streak.
Will she be too tired to do much at Wimbledon?
Post match: I'm really happy. I want to enjoy this evening.
It's a special moment for me.
