Watson wins Monterrey crown

Heather Watson has won her third WTA Tour
singles title after beating Belgium's Kirsten
Flipkens 3-6 6-2 6-3 in the Monterrey Open final.
Watson lost the opening set, sealed by Flipkens'
first ace, but broke twice in claiming the second
set to force a decider.
There, the two players traded service breaks
before Watson crucially earned another to lead
5-3, giving her the chance to serve out the match.
The British player trailed 15-40 but battled back to
force match point, which she took with an un-
returnable body serve.
Watson remains without a coach following her
temporary link with Judy Murray but she brought
on her mother Michelle as on-court coach when
5-2 down in the first set.
In the post-match presentation, the British No 2
said: "It's the first time my mum's seen me win a
title and it's Mother's Day back in England, so
Happy Mother's day mum!"
