Yulia Putintseva promises champagne for all after Birmingham win ... on the LTA's dime!

The accountants at the Lawn Tennis Association will have their work cut out for them if Yulia Putintseva gets her way.

After winning her third career WTA singles title, and first on grass, at the Rothesay Classic in Birmingham, the ebullient Kazkah was embracing all that comes with the opportunity to give a victory speech—her first in three years.

After recapping her victory, talking tactics, congratulating beaten finalist Ajla Tomljanovic on a notable result of her own, thanking fans, tournament staff, and her team, Putintseva was not yet ready to be played off.

"Can I keep going?" she asked, still wanting to thank her parents, the Kazakh tennis federation, and her coach Matteo Donati.

On-court interviewer Naomi Broady egged her on.

"You're the winner," Broady replied, "you can do whatever you want!"

What Putintseva wanted, as it turned out, to turn her winning moment into a group celebration.

"Champagne to everyone!" she declared, before adding that she wasn't about ready to part with any of her hard-earned champion's check of $20,830.

"Not on me! LTA pays!"

The title was the latest in a series of strong showings for the resurgent Kazakh this year. In late February, the former world No. 27 was ranked No. 80, but a fourth-round effort in Indian Wells, and quarterfinals in Miami and Madrid, put her back on the upswing. She'll be back to No. 34 on Monday and will look to extend her winning streak next week in Bad Hombug.

"I don't know what I'm feeling because I wasn't expecting this at all," Putintseva said in her victory speech. "It's great and it's confusing because I've always been good on clay, but now all of a sudden, I'm good on grass. I'll take that! It's great!"

But once the champagne wore off, Putintseva seemed ready to embrace her new status.

"What a week," she captioned her celebratory Instagram post, with the hashtag #grasscourtspecialist.
