Week #18: Titles for Zvonareva and Dulko

Vera Zvonareva confirmed again that she's one of the best players in this 2008 season so far and captured the title in Prague. Zvoraneva was the clear favourite for this Tier IV title and didn't find too much opposition, although on her way to the title she had to defeat WTA 30 Katarina Srebotnik and WTA 26 Victoria Azarenka, who was the runner-up.
In the weak Tier IV of Fes the main favourites also confirmed their status and the final featured the two top seeds, Spanish Anabel Medina and Argetinian Gisela Dulko. The title was for Dulko, who won a close final decided in two tiebreaks. Dulko suffered an injury February but played impressively the whole week, so she seems to be fully recovered.
