Emma Navarro takes double victory after 6-0,6-0 win in Colombia qualifier merida open on sunday.
World number 10 Navarro who won the WTA 250 Hobart International last year, needed just 55 minutes to lift her first WTA 500 trophy, wrapping up a dominant run in the tournament in which she didn’t drop a set.
With a strong serve and powerful groundstrokes, Navarro never allowed Arango to reach a break point, while the US Open semi-finalist won 71% of points on return.
Navarro become the fifth player this century to win a WTA final with a 6-0 ,6-0 scoreline. Arango, who will reach a career-high singles world ranking of 80 on Monday, could not find her stride following a nearly three-hour semi-final battle against fellow qualifier Daria Saville late on Saturday.
The Colombian world number 133 reached Sunday’s final on the back of an 11-match winning streak, including last week’s winning run at the WTA 125 Cancun Open, but had to play three sets in each of her last three matches.
