AFP, Taipei :
Hungary’s Timea Babos triumphed over Kateryna Kozlova of Ukraine to win the Taiwan Open Sunday, her second title of 2018 after claiming the doubles trophy in Melbourne last month.
The Hungarian fourth seed carried over the momentum from the Australian Open to win in straight sets, 7-5, 6-1.
It was her third WTA singles title after winning the Abierto GNP Seguros in Monterrey in 2012 and the Hungarian Ladies Open in Budapest last year.
Kozlova was making her debut at a WTA final. She stayed close in the first set but conceded an easy victory in the second.
