Dominika Cibulkova and Polona Hercog win WTA titles

This weeks tournaments wrapped up yesterday with Dominika Cibulkova winning in Carlsbad and Polona Hercog retaining her title in Bastad.  Cibulkova beat Marion Bartoli, 6-1 7-5 to claim her second career title and move up to number 13 in the world rankings.  Hercog beat Mathilde Johansson, 0-6 6-4 7-5 in one of those crazy chokefest WTA finals.  Hercog had been on a long losing streak before this tournament, but found her way to victory for the second consecutive year in Bastad.  In the ATP tournaments, Juan Monaco claimed a spot in the top 10 with victory over Tommy Haas, 7-5 6-4.  Andy Roddick stayed strong and fought off a shoulder complaint to upset Gilles Muller, 1-6 7-6 6-2 and finally Thomaz Bellucci won the title in Gstaad by beating Janko Tipsarevic in the final.
