Francesca Schiavone, the first Italian woman in the Open Era to claim a slam title, wins the French Open.
excerpt:
But the real story of the match was how Schiavone embraced the biggest moment of her career (one that is over a decade in the making) with a passionate, gutsy performance that moved many in the crowd — especially her Italian supporters — to tears of joy. It was a bravura performance by Schiavone, 29, who played the match of her life when it counted most.
