I played very aggressive and I did not make mistakes while Ofner made more mistakes” said the Austrian Dominic Thiem (AUT) afterwards.I think the dream of everyone playing this tournament is to win it once. (Photo: Colette Lewis) I did it.” 12 December 2011 Issue 50 Fifteen-year-old Kontaveit from Tallinn clinched her second title of the year becoming the first Estonian girl to lift the Orange Bowl trophy.
