EASTBOURNE, Great Britain
Karolina Pliskova clinched her third title of 2017 after edging past Caroline Wozniacki in straight sets at the Aegon International Eastbourne.
Twelve months after falling in the Eastbourne final last year to Dominika Cibulkova, Pliskova was able to go one step further and claim the biggest grass court title of her career, winning 6-4, 6-4 in an hour and 22 minutes.
With the victory Pliskova becomes the first Czech to triumph at Eastbourne since Jana Novotna in 1998 – and that’s a good omen too, as Novotna went on to win the Eastbourne-Wimbledon double that year.
