Hingis Beats Sharapova But Loses To Dementieva
One day after putting her racket where her mouth is and stunning Maria Sharapova in straight sets at the Pan Pacific semi-finals, Martina Hingis was defeated by Elena Dementieva 6-2, 6-0 in her first WTA singles final match of her improbable comeback. It was Dementieva's first title in over two years, and the fourth title of her career. Although she lost this final, Hingis has accepted a wild card entry into the Indian Wells tournament. Dementieva jumps to #8 in the World Singles rankings.
