Garcia wins Poland Open to claim her 9th WTA title

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Fifth-seeded Caroline Garcia has defeated Ana Bogdan 6-4, 6-1 to win the Poland Open for her ninth WTA title. It’s the second trophy of the year for Garcia after winning the grass-court Bad Homburg Open, her first title in three years. The Frenchwoman could rely more on her serve in the final, winning 72% of the first-service points, compared to 47% won by her opponent who was playing in her first championship game. The former fourth-ranked Garcia has won 18 of her last 21 matches. In Warsaw, she upset top-ranked Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals, ending her clay-court winning streak at 18 matches.
