WTA Tour: Unbeaten On Court: Swiatek Wins 25th Career Title In Seoul
Korea Open: Top seed Iga Swiatek of Poland trailed in nearly every single statistical category in Sunday's Korea Open final but won the big moments to defeat No. 2 seed Ekaterina Alexandrova 1-6, 7-6 (3), 7-5 in 2 hours and 41 minutes to lift another title on the WTA Tour. The victory marked her third title of the season and the 25th of her career. She is now 25-5 all-time in WTA finals.
“First of all, I want to congratulate Ekaterina for an amazing week and an amazing final,” Swiatek said during the trophy presentation. “Honestly, I don’t know how I won it because you were playing great, and I just tried to stay alive. Hopefully we’re going to play more finals because it’s always tough against you, but it’s also entertaining.”
Her never-say-die mentality ultimately gave Swiatek the edge in a match defined by razor-thin margins – aside from the lopsided opening set. Alexandrova, the clear underdog, came out swinging and needed just 30 minutes to take the first set convincingly, breaking Swiatek in the opening game and never looking back.
