Bastad - Germany's Laura Siegemund clinched her first WTA title in Bastad after defeating Katerina Siniakova of the Czech Republic 7-5, 6-1 in Sunday's final.
Siegemund, who reached the final on clay in Stuttgart in April as a qualifier, navigated her way through a tight first set before powering to victory in 83 minutes.
The 28-year-old is projected to climb to a career-high of 32 in the world rankings after overcoming first-time finalist Siniakova.
"This is one of my favourite tournaments, and I can't believe I won this one," said Siegemund.
"I was in good shape, and was playing well last week as well. I knew I could do well here but winning the whole thing is something you might not really expect or think about."
