In Sunday's continuation, Swiatek completed the
match in two sets, winning 6-1, 7-6 (6). Waiting for her to play
the finals was Laura Siegemund of Germany, and Swiatek breezed
past her 6-0, 6-1 in 68 minutes.
It was the second career win over Siegemund in two matches for
Swiatek, who broke her opponent five times while never facing a
break point herself.
Swiatek didn't drop a set in the tournament as she won for the
fourth time this season and captured her 15th career title.
Ladies Open Lausanne
No. 2 seed Elisabetta Cocciaretto of Italy defeated unseeded
Clara Burel of France 7-5, 4-6, 6-4 to win her first WTA
championship.
On the clay courts in Switzerland, Cocciaretto rallied from a
break down in the third set. Trailing 4-2, Cocciaretto rolled
off four straight game wins to grab the victory in two hours, 43
minutes.
It was yet another come-from-behind win this week for the
Italian, who was victorious against Celine Naef in the first
round and Anna Bondar in the semifinal round on Saturday despite
facing match point in both.
