Jubilee for Lindsay Davenport — by winning the final against Amélie Mauresmo, the American celebrates the 50th career title. The Frenchwoman experiences a déjá-vù as Davenport also beat her the year before — an injury was to blame. For the American, it is her third success at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix. Thrilling finals involving top class players attract not only the spectators but also the media — about 160 journalists from all over the world report on the tournament.
