Renata Zelnickova beat Kaja Najzer 6-2, 6-3 at the WTA 125k in Ljubljana, breaking serve five times to three and winning 30 return points to her opponent's 20. The difference was Najzer's second serve, which produced just 3 points won from 20 across the match against seven double faults.
Zelnickova broke in the fourth game for 3-1 and again for 5-1 in the opener; Najzer got one back at 5-2 before Zelnickova broke straight back to close it out 6-2. The second set stayed choppy — Zelnickova led 2-0 on an early break, was pegged to 2-1, moved clear at 4-2, then saw Najzer reply again at 4-3 before the decisive break at 5-3 ended it.
The standout figure is Najzer's second-serve return of the ball to the court under pressure: she won 0 of 9 second-serve points in the first set and 3 of 20 overall, while saving only 3 of 8 break points. Zelnickova, by contrast, hit two aces to none and lost just one point behind her serve to a double fault.
