Margarita Gasparyan wins Baku Cup for 1st WTA title

Gasparyan served for the match when up 5-4 in the second set but was broken back at love. However, she dominated the

final set to wrap up the win in 2 ½ hours.

Gasparyan had never won a main-draw match at the WTA level before this tournament, while Tig — a qualifier — was also

playing in her first tour final.

The 112th-ranked Gasparyan said "it's been an amazing tournament for me."
