Rome, 5 October (LaPresse) – "It wasn't easy to come back today, they played a very high level first set. We probably made a few too many mistakes, especially on the important points, but we remained positive, we fought for every point and in the end we played a great tie-break. Defending the title here is incredible, it's an amazing feeling. What's more, this tournament suits our conditions well for playing doubles at our best, so we're happy to have defended this title. It's definitely been a positive two weeks in both singles and doubles, it's a shame about the singles. Anyway, Amanda played an incredible match and it's still been a positive two weeks.‘ These were the words of Jasmine Paolini after winning the doubles final, paired with Sara Errani, at the WTA 1000 in Beijing against Japan's Miyu Kato and Hungary's Fanny Stollar. ’We've had a lot of fun these past two weeks. We played an excellent tournament,‘ commented Errani. ’I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to play with Jas. We know how difficult it is to compete in both singles and doubles on the circuit,‘ she added. ’I would like to thank the whole team for their daily support, and the entire audience. It is wonderful to play on this court in front of so many people," she concluded.
