World No. 1 Iga Swiatek captured her fourth straight title of the season by beating Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka 6-2 6-2 in the Stuttgart Open final, extending her winning streak to 23 matches.

Swiatek, a former French Open champion, had breezed through the opening rounds of the WTA 500 claycourt tournament before facing her biggest test in the semifinals, where she battled back from a set down to overcome Ludmilla Samsonova.
