Jack Davies 05 May, 2018 17:21 IST Czech tennis player Petra Kvitova - Getty Images Jack Davies 05 May, 2018 17:21 IST Petra Kvitova came from a set down to clinch her maiden Prague Open title in a 4-6 6-2 6-3 victory over Mihaela Buzarnescu. The home favourite had not dropped a set all week in the Czech capital but suffered a collapse of form in Saturday's opener to hand world number 37 Buzarnescu the initiative. Having opened up a 4-1 lead, Kvitova lost five successive games as unforced errors crept into her play. But the two-time Wimbledon champion responded impressively, making three breaks to Buzarnescu's one in the second set to the delight of a partisan home crowd. The decisive break of the third set came in the fourth game, as Buzarnescu sent a forehand long having saved two earlier break points. And Kvitova held on for a win that represents her third WTA title of the season and her first on clay since the 2015 Madrid Open. Read more stories on Tennis. For more updates, follow Sportstar on :
