It is after a match in three sets that the Slovenian won against the French Clara Burel (125) who played her first final on the WTA circuit. The beginning of the match was largely dominated by the young Frenchwoman who was able to put in difficulty the number 1 seed of the tournament. Burel won the first set before coming within two points of the match on her own serve in the second set tie-break (5-5). Tamara Zidansek, despite the difficulties involved, recovered to win the tournament after two hours and four minutes of play with a score of 4-6 7-6 (7/5) 6-1
