Both women had gotten through tough three set semifinals the other day but the finals proved to be all in favor of Wozniacki who jumped out to a quick 4-0 lead in the first set by playing assertive tennis from the baseline. Kanepi finally held serve for 4-1 and then tested Wozniacki in the next game as both women fired off winners in a multiple deuce game.

 

Kanepi had four break points but Wozniacki fought them all off to hold for 5-1. That seemed to rattle Kanepi who found herself down set point in the next game and it was a misfired backhand from the Estonian that gave Wozniacki the first set 6-1.

 

Wozniacki, who was seeking her first title of the year, didn't let up in she broke Kanepi early for a 2-0 lead. Despite only serving 50% for the match, Wozniacki never faced a break point in the second set and steamrolled her way to a 6-1, 6-0 victory in just over an hour.

 

Seoul is Wozniacki's 19th career title and she wanted to enjoy the moment of winning rather than reflect on how this week will help possibly return to the top ten.

 

"I don't really think about the ranking - I'm just happy I won the tournament," Wozniacki told WTA.com "I want to enjoy it and be positive - so that's what I'm thinking about right now. I want to build up for the next season and hopefully my results this week will help me move forward and get back to playing my best."

 

The doubles title was won by No. 1 seed Raquel Kops-Jones and Abigail Spears over Akgul Amanmuradova and Vania King 2-6, 6-2, 10-8.
