''I'm very happy,'' the winner exclaimed after wrapping up the match, adding a special thank you for her mother, who was in Katowice.
''It was a great tournament for me.''
Polish fans had been keeping fingers crossed that the title would go to No. 1 seed Agnieszka Radwańska this year.
However, the Pole was knocked out by No. 3 seed Giorgi in the semis. (nh)
