Jelena Ostapenko, the Latvian teenager that has been turning heads since she turned pro in 2012, came very close to winning her first WTA title in Doha this past weekend. After dispatching top ten player, Petra Kvitova, and numerous former top ten players, she almost knocked out Carla Suarez Navarro. She got off to a brilliant start winning the first set 6-1; however, Suarez Navarro was not about to lose twice to her and fought back to win the title in three sets. This was the second final appearance for the teenager, she made the final last year in Quebec City. At this rate she will probably be claiming her first singles title and hoisting her first WTA singles trophy in the not too distant future.
