Svitolina clinches title

TOP seed Elina Svitolina of Ukraine won the Taiwan Open yesterday, beating China’s Shuai Peng convincingly.

The world No. 13 defeated her opponent in straight sets 6-3, 6-2 to clinch her fifth WTA singles title. Svitolina and Peng had only played each other once before in 2014. Peng, ranked 71st, returned to tennis last March after taking a break from playing following an operation for a waist injury in 2015.
