Warsaw (Poland) , July 31 (Ians) Poland’s Iga Swiatek smashed Laura Siegemund of Germany 6-0, 6-1 on home court in the final to win the Warsaw Open title, here.
The World No. 1 controlled the game from the very beginning and needed just 30 minutes to win the opening set without losing a single game.
After a short break, Siegemund, who had nothing to lose, started to take more risks, but she was not able to reply to Swiatek’s effective attacks, as the favorite won nine consecutive games on Sunday.
Siegemund kept her service to make it 3-1 in the second set. However, Swiatek was in her best shape as she found a break to take the lead 5-1, closing the match out a moment later, a Xinhua report said.

Warsaw (Poland), July 30 (Ians) German tennis player Laura Siegemund rallied past her compatriot Tatjana Maria 5-7, 6-3, 6-4 to reach the Warsaw Open final on Saturday night.
After Maria had two breaks to win the opening set 7-5, Siegemund, who had finished her quarterfinal a few hours earlier, managed to turn the game into her favor with strong service and won three consecutive games to make it 1-1 in sets.
The third set was proven to be very tight, but it was Siegemund who led 5-4 and broke Maria to reach the final, Xinhua reported.
