PYW - ITF Beijing

http://www.beijinghighlights.com/photos/historicrelics/templeofheaven.JPG

Welcome to Beijing! The capital of China hosts a 50 K tournament this week. Out of the limelight of the big game in the US it will give players a chance to make it to the big level, like in ITF Dénain. As expected lots of Asian and Australian players choose to play here close to home. The Chinese are of course hoping for a home win. But considering the PYW rankings of the players present, it's an incredibly weak field for a 50 K.

The semifinals saw a surprise win for Chinese qualifier Ding Ding over top seed Sunitha Rao of the United States. She pleased the home crowd, by assuring a Chines player is in the final. And this is her debut tournament on PYW too. She will have a huge fight on her hands in her last match though as she faces fourth seed Suchanun Viratprasert, who defeated Mi-Ra Jeon of South Korea in the semi-final. The Thai player is also looking to snatch the title and was named one of the big favourites here before the start of the tournament.

Now it's all up to you to decide who gets to win the title. Vote for who you want to win these final match!

Wtatour site says Suchanan, ITF says Suchanun. I just don't know what to make of it, it's a different spelling each time.
