The second serve decided the Memphis Classic final. Down a 6-1 opener, WTA No. 228 Kristina Liutova won 63 percent of her second-serve points to Darja Vidmanova's 33 and converted 6 of 9 break points, flipping the final against a favorite ranked 122 places higher. Vidmanova edged the first-serve exchanges, 56 percent to 50, and still lost the points count 75-66. The runner-up saved three match points before Liutova converted the fourth, 1 hour, 34 minutes in, for a maiden title — capping a week that also brought a round-of-32 win over No. 19 Ekaterina Alexandrova.
