Hsieh is big in Japan

Chinese Taipei鈥檚 Hsieh Su-Wei trounced American qualifier Amanda Anisimova 6-2 6-2 to capture the Japan Women鈥檚 Open yesterday. The second seed had too much experience on the big points as she dashed her teenage opponent鈥檚 hopes of claiming a maiden WTA title in Hiroshima. Anisimova, 17, suffered from stage fright in her first final on the women鈥檚 tour. Hsieh, 32, showed far more composure as she rolled to her third career singles title following victories at Kuala Lumpur and Guangzhou in 2012. The tournament acts as an hors d鈥檕euvre to this week鈥檚 Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo, where US Open champion Naomi Osaka makes an appearance.
