Patricia Vehovec vs Benjamin Redek

First meeting of the season, and Patricia Vehovec made it count. She bulldozed the opener 6-2, then watched Benjamin Redek storm back 2-6 like a man who suddenly remembered how to play tennis. But when it mattered most, in a 12-10 tie-break marathon, Benjamin's nerves crumbled like a stale wafer. So close, yet so painfully far - now 0-1 in their head-to-head and left staring at the ceiling. With this win, Patricia climbs to 36 points, third place, and shoves Benjamin (34) another rung down. Above her lurks Žiga Kranjc at 37 and leader Jan Hocevar at 39 - both very much catchable. Benjamin, meanwhile, gets to stew and dream of revenge.
