The 18-year-old Radwanska was on the verge of defeat in the final set tiebreaker, but held serve when Craybas, 33, made a huge error on a backhand shot at 5-6.

"I was nervous and everything was upsetting me," she said. "But I was also fighting until the last point and was very relieved when I finally won it."

Craybasm fell to 1-1 in WTA tournament finals.
